[Match Discussion] Cheated
Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
We just run out of steam put everything in to the first half.
Thought some of our fans where a disgrace soon as we started losing group of 8 lads behind me slating Powell Milo Watts and Shenton for the last half hour.
Calling Powell a fraud etc
Also saints fan in our end slapped in the face by Cas fans when they scored there last try.

Jesse played much better than Foster. Foster did nothing when he came on.
Anyone know why Matagi didn't play? Griffin is also a wasted spot.

Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
I heard Matagi had upset stomach on the Friday so was unwell. I though our bench was too small when compared to Saints and would’ve preferred more size on there. Bienek, Blair, Matagi (if well) would’ve provided much better go forward than Milner and Foster did.

Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
The 'no try' was the turning point in the game but it came with a number of other lucky incidents, including their first try. Yes I know the intention is to aim for the posts with these kick throughs but with the bounce of a rugby ball, it is pure luck when you hit it and it then bounces straight back into one of your team's hands.
I was also bemused by a tackle just before the Milner 'knock on' when it appears as though Percival took one of our lads heads off close to the line.
What I do know about saints are is that they are masters of sneaking offside in defence and holding down in the tackle for far too long without getting pinged.
Onwards and upwards we go...

Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
Our body language all game was pretty tough to watch, any sort of break in play and half a dozen players would drop to the floor at any given time wanting treatment. Respect to the players who played busted, but in the end it told, especially them that haven't played for 4 weeks. However, I feel like we'd have beaten any other team on Saturday had it not been Saints, we just came up against a really fit and intense side who were hell bent on winning.

Terrible prop where DP plays him which he is most definitely not

Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
I think Matagi in for Griffin would have made a difference Saturday. I’m not a fan of Griffin at all though, especially at prop - he’s never been and never will be a prop forward.
Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
I agree he's not a prop, was happy we had signed him as i thought he played really well for Salford in the back row but he hasn't really been used in that position much for us.derbystiger wrote: ↑19 Jul 2021, 17:36I think Matagi in for Griffin would have made a difference Saturday.

CLASSY CAS FOREVER
Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
We ran out of steam. Simple as. And made some poor attacking calls when we were desperate.
But we should have had two penalties in kicking range for high shots on Watts and Smith. Even the BBC pundits called them.
16 6 at half time. And then the Roby "try"? Three big calls against us and a ten point swing.
Proud of the effort. You don't beat saints without either a bit of luck or a ref's call your way.
We had four go against us.

Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
Two turning points for me was one we should have dropped goal on 3rd or 4th tackle just on half time to give us two score physological advantage not wait till last tackle as that's what teams expect. Two second turning point was that levelling try as the longer game went on with us leading the more pressure on saints from themselves and there fans too
Re: [Match Discussion] Cheated
We set up for the drop goal with obrien in the pocket but milner did his customary knock on
