Much better today and we had them rattled.Keep that level up and that should result in some wins which we desperately need. Think the score flattered Saints, not helped by the man with the whistle allowing Saints to get away with some blatant offences otherwise the score could and should have been much closer, or am I been too biased?
However a good display today, shame about the result.

I think the officiating was pretty poor for both sides but we certainly didn’t benefit from it more than you. One of our try’s was an obstruction but your first two try’s weren’t try’s with the second one being one of the worst decisions I’ve ever seen to award it considering he was stood right in front of it.

The second was Shaws when he grounded the kick through infront of the ingoal judge which he had no issue with.
The refs annoyed me with daft things like awarding Saints penalties for a ball steal when the defender had already moved away from the tackle, then minutes later the ball flies out of a 3 man saints tackle and is given as a Rovers knock on.
Big teams get the rub of the green.

Great away support from Saints by the way.
