We had a few good moments, but lots of mistakes as well. Catalans were the better team for most of the match, despite being pretty scratchy too, but having got ourselves in close-to winning positions twice it was frustrating to see it drift away. Still, not a toys out the pram sort of performance imo, given the conditions.

I wouldn’t say the Sky coverage was biased but it was very much focused on Catalans and what this or that meant from their perspective. Bit wearing as well.

To be fair it was a good watch for the neutral.
You had Bird making up the numbers for you in the first half.
You missed him when he went off.

Well hudds got some stick about the cowbell on Thursday- but I’d rather hear that than the incessant booing from KR.

Re: Catalans game : Sun Mar 17, 2019 5:21 pm  

Typical Catalans time wasting.

Typical Catalans milking penalties esp 1st half.

Addy very poor.

Sheens substitution taking Atkin off for Addy changed the game when we were on top after Joel's try.

Both teams overplaying in 1st half.

Hope Lunt plays next week. Hooker is a mess.

Vaivai will be the scapegoat. Addy kept passing to him when he had 3 defenders to hammer him. Last was ripped out unseen by the officials.

So good you wrote it twice. No different to any old style RL ground with terraces close to pitch etc. The Wakey fans last week booed pretty much everything which is their privilege as paying home fans trying to support their team and maybe influence the ref? I can see why you would be confused and bewildered with the notion of this principle

Your left hand edge defence was garbage.

Yup we were turdmonger and got done which was disappointing after competing pretty well in our first 5 hit-outs.
It's the close ones that hurt the soul most though, innit?

That's correct. But I wonder how hdm and radio humberside would spin it if FC had as many players injured? Considering all this I thought it was brave if ultimately gut wrenching loss
