phildog Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Well your hopes blew away! We were out-fought, out-thought, out-tackled and out-played. A classic cue on the rack game..a few out there today didn't even earn losing pay. Despite all the 'we're delighted that so and so has re-signed' posts, we just weren't good enough, even more so than last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We desperately desperately need a decent centre, something we missed when Jack Logan left and got back when Levi Edwards signed on loan. I dont think its coincidence our form picked up when we had Logan then Edwards and has dropped off again. Cant really understand this constant tinkering of Walshaw/Morton thing in centre.... But all said we looked flat and a bit uninterested at times again for 2nd week in a row. Bit worrying. Thought we'd have been up for this.

Piggy's mate Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Can't add a great deal to what's already said especially when we played a team who scored when down a man in first half and then scored again when they had a player red carded for the headbut...

silverback Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 We seemed to play like a team that thought they were sorted for next season and had holidays booked for warmer parts.. the times we did get on the move and let the ball do some work we looked great,one a the 4 pointers would a been on news at ten if it were saints,then we lost balls,threw silly pass when we needed to be safe and take the tackle,we kicked on the first,fourarm smashed em on first,tried like last week to bundle over into 4 players when two simple pass.s out wide would a got points,and some a the tackling was very poor,same handfull a players gave 100%,lots a reasons why we should have been well up for this one but failed for most a game.was a bit of a thaler show at times but we were naff for an hour.well done dews you gave it everything and a have a lot better squad than you think..
