pudsey hawk Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 We can win this anyway . Fancy us against anyone but Workington excellent at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cl1998 Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 We’re more than a one man team Oldham destroyed us and we had legit no pack that game. We didn’t take a full strength London Broncos to within 2pts for nothing and we aren’t the only team to beat Bradford for nothing. It’s a long trek and it’ll be a sweltering heat. On our own turf if see nothing but a town win and a statement of intent Workington 30-16 Hunslet Just my view at home we are a different animal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkwindbag Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Hmmm, not sure about this one. Seven wins on the bounce says we are certainly capable of winning but the last three games have hardly been statements that we can sweep all before us. And in each of them we conceded a Penkywicz/Flanagan type try! If we've been watching our own match videos we could do a lot worse than look at how Crusaders defended on their own line, which was outstanding. Team selection will be interesting with new signings Tonks and Wright from Keighley, and I believe Daley Williams available for the first time. Anyway looking forward to Sunday and will be travelling up with hope in my heart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

town4me Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Good intensity and enthusiasm from hunslet in the first 30 mins but you were never gonna keep that up in these conditions and you never. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pudsey hawk Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Sin binning turned game and we played dumb rugby . 4 players on debut 2 of which haven’t played for ages and some key players missing means there is more to come from hunslet yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkwindbag Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 So as I intimated midweek, here endeth our unbeaten run. Two main reasons why we came unstuck yesterday; a) the team announcement didn't begin "1-Watson, 2-Foggin-Johnson, 3-Chappell...", then two players announced playing their first game for two years and another two making their Hunslet debut. Those three were missed, though to be fair Duffy did a fair job filling in at full-back, but defensive mix-ups down the right side cost us two tries. So too much change in the team; certainly some of the togetherness that has pulled us through when things get tough so often this season seemed lacking. b) the sin-binning of Flynn early in the second half was a game-changer, Workington were certainly capable of taking advantage of it and to be fair we had been put on a team warning at the time. Shame really, as we seemed well on course at half-time. Straugheir put another captain's stint in down the right but lacked the usual quality outside him, Mvududu had his best game of the season and Williams will be a good acquisition when he beds in. Sanderson and Southernwood had their quietest games for some time. So a not entirely unexpected defeat under the circumstances but plenty of pointers for the coaches and players for where we need to improve.

The King Of Leon Posted July 9, 2018 Author Share Posted July 9, 2018 I thought we played very well 1st half and could have scored in the 39 th min when Williams stole the ball one on one and looked to add to the 14-4 score, we played great for the 1st 40 mins our forwards making great yards.The 2nd half was a disaster from the opening set , Flynn got 10 mins in the bin after a Moi Moi charge then Penky took charge and Worky got 12 points while we were down to 12. Worky then dominated the rest of the half to be honest , Muffy got us back in the game but somehow Sandy hit the post with the easy kick and Town punished us more with a late try with Forber hitting the goal from the touchline. We didn't go for one 40/20 in the entire match on the rock hard pitch which I find strange in this weather, to make matters worse I think Zak Braham broke his arm and Lewis Reed limped off .

town blue Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Straughier - was that your No. 12, was your best player by a mile, outstanding in attack and defence, but still second best to Town captain marvel Olly Wilkes who led from the front for the full 80 mins. TUT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanishknight Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 This division is turning out to be very close and anyone of 8 teams could make the top 5, I said before the season started there wont be many sides that will only lose 4 or 5 games.

THE REPORT ON OUR WEBSITE DIDNT GIVE HIM A MENTION Don't believe all you read on the club website ... last week at Wrexham the report said Ashton scored the final Hunslet try when in fact it that was Mvududu also. A very odd case of mistaken identity, if ever I saw one!! And to add to the oddness, the report actually came with a picture of Muffa scoring the try!
