Just hope we can cobble 17 together for next week...

well, the news i heard from the dressing room after the match was no serious injuries - said took 17mins to come round apparently

Aye but a lot of those players were already playing with injury/knocks and looked to make things worse!!

As long as he's okay

Thank you. Your absolutely correct I didnt. I think we lost because:

a) Our defence leaves holes all over the place, and it has done for a good couple of seasons now
b) We made too many mistakes and failed to take our chances in the second half
c) Featherstones defence was pretty solid and they continually won the ruck
d) Feathersone use their slope to a great effect, and why wouldnt they. We just do not seem to cope with it very well.

All I said was that we played them a lot closer on a flat pitch and if we are given the chance to face them once again this season we should make it a closer competition and given the rub of the green could come away with the win.

That said, no compacency here, we have a very stiff job to do next Thursday before we can contemplate a re-match.
