We're playing safety first rugby and still making errors but it was two that cost us today. Braden first half cost us a try and Zarrin second half when we were still in it. Don't get too down about it, i'm disappointed yeah but it's not who's playing it's how they're playing. It was only when we went two scores behind we tried to play any passing rugby. There's not a bad player in the squad but only Bradley can make something happen out of nothing ,you have to make it happen. As i said earlier our defence was outstanding but i don't know to defend those kicks, hopefully the coaches do and it doesn't happen again.

Defence is superb ,all their tries have been off kicks off the back of errors or pens

Must've been to have left the other two out.

Doran (Oscar) and Graham in the squad but no Gibson or SCHOLEY. He's been massive so far and Gibson was good last week but it would be great to have Guy Graham in the team.

Caine and Jake ripped them apart. Hopefully Evan and Jake will be back this week.

It's somewhere i usually go down fancying us for a win, but we're not playing with any fluidity so it'll take a big return form..something we're very capable of.

You'd normally think Friday so they can spend the weekend in the Lakes...but less so in February!

Quick PTB is just as important.

Sounds good, i liked Brad Taylor but there's been no update on his injury. I think we've made some good additions but we'll know more next week.

Would you sign Butterworth? All i got from that was ..big lad and we've only got one true winger.

You didn't rate Williams and DGB then?

There's Bradley and Lawther to come back in but admittedly i've only seen Rawhiti play on the right side so far.

Well i hope we click soon ! The bones of a team are there but the failure to complete sets is pure gold to the opposition. If we'd been playing anyone other than amateurs it would have been another defeat. We set off playing like we should be able to do, but we couldn't without spilling the ball and that's disappointing because all the other pro teams could. I think it'll come because all the ingredients are there but nobody has turned the oven on.

No Lawther or Doran this week .

Team selection this week could be interesting with Wear and Lewthwaite playing their first games and potentially three debutants. Then Leigh and Lawther could revert to playing centre.
