That's more like it! Still making daft errors like kicking out on the full and incorrect PTBs but the team had a better shape to it , I dont think Dom liked being left out last week! Maybe it did him good and that right hand threat was great to watch even if Levi was nowhere near fit. I hate going to the Rec and we dont win there but at least we're going with a good win behind us.

He said a few wouldn't be playing this week.
-
Do you think he runs with aggression? See Unicorn's comments below..that's what i'm getting at. He'd had two years down the road and it sounded like he was one of their best just coming to his peak but i've been disappointed.
-
Exactly that's what I was saying but we've got plenty of props and he's at the back of the queue rightly or wrongly. I mean Ainley does nothing for me but he won't get dropped.
-
We've all supported them for decades mate and the fact that we're still here shows we dont throw the towel in like some, but you shouldn't applaud or forgive shoddy performances. Yes nobody goes on the field to lose but when you've spent big and the directors have built a club to be proud of they deserve better. To be honest it'll be a miracle if any league 1 club gets promoted but we are in serious danger of not making the top 4 and you can call it chucking the towel but in the current form and with the upcoming fixtures I'd say it's being realistic. Our second row was our strength but we've struggled since they've been injured.

Same with Grant Reid, he's played a couple of games the last one was months ago and against Newcastle. He sits on the bench while their big lads wreak havoc. Finally comes on and gives away two pens and goes missing in defence. It's hard for him and Hutton to come into these high pressure games . It is what it is. We lacked some guys with grunt like Graham ,Bradley and Atiga and I'd honestly rather have Doran at hooker. The soft defence was the worst aspect.
-
At 20 .16 we're in the game then he drops his second bomb and they score. Not the game breaker but I felt the momentum switch . That's two howlers today and Dewsbury, good player but I reckon he's used up his get out of jail free card .
-
It was even worse in pictures.
-
Supposedly it's on YouTube!
-
Peter have you got the commentary?
-
I'm on the BBC RUGBY LEAGUE APP. Can't see the commentary anywhere??
-
He was just a bit overly keen i think and having not played that level for a while. It cost us but he's normally very reliable so just put it behind you .
-
Agreed but as you say he was quality, equally as devastating in defence as attack. Such a shame we lost him to injury for so long.
-
There's the likes of Elliott Miller, Connor Fitzimmons, Jamie Thackray and Jordan Burns who were the standouts and probably carried the team in their respective spells.
-
Anybody who made a linebreak was going into the corner whether they liked it or not , and the next thing they'd be cut down and over the touchline.
-
Definitely the standout but that was a he'll of a good team.
-
I think the main part of the question was ..who was a standout in an otherwise ordinary team? That's how I took it. I know I shouldn't say it but that would be most seasons! Zarrin is the latest candidate.
-
Well Warrington didn't agree cos that's where he went after leaving us!
-
Jarred Stack carried that team and Ollie Wilkes also Hitro was class . Yet another prop who was the linchpin of the team was Matt Sturm. Gary Nixon was a class above in a bad team and I suppose Ray Ashton inspired many a win but it was a tricky situation having to leave out either Kitchin or Wear. A player who was a class above in a short loan spell was Shaun Briscoe.
-
Thanks Peter, this is what should happen via the website but hasn't done the last few weeks for me so i'll try the app.
-
Yeah but I tried after kick off and it just took you to a link to one match which I think was York.
-
He was probably the best winger we had but now if we can hang on to Andy he won't be , but he could be our best centre.
-
My family can't get to games and want to listen to the matches. I know there was a commentary today but I could not find it when I clicked on the BBC Radio Cumbria Sport link. Does anybody know how to find it? Cheers
-
That would be some backline.
-
I'd like to see Djeukesse here til the end of the season. It's good to have even more pace out wide, in attack and defence. Donaghy was the fastest man on the pitch to chase down Eccleston and Galea! Bit scrappy at the end that stopped it being high 60s . It didn't tell me much but good to get a win and with today's results it shows everybody is beatable .
