He should have gone for a DG instead of bomb in the last minute.
Rob Lui looks a big upgrade on Tui IMO
Why Hadley ran in to take that catch when it was clearly Walkers to take I’ll never know, however it wasn’t a knock on
Defence again much improved but our attack is clunky, looking forward to having a decent SR in the team

I disagree i think he will look a lot better if we can get a hooker who doesn’t just run around like a headless chicken

Yes, but the question asked was about that first half.

| This ref is an absolute joke. Never seen offside as bad as this.

| As I posted earlier, Catalanshambles. If you can't beat them at the moment, you deserve to go bottom this week.

| The ref though is an absolute Joke, giving every decision to Catalans, and ignoring every offence they do.

| Credit to the new found resilience. At 18-12, I feared for the worse, but good we've been able to kick on and get the points.
4 horse race now.

| Firstly that was a much need win from the team so well done to the players for that, thought Briscoe was good under high ball and making yardage, Cuthbertson was the best forward on pitch today look abit like the Form he showed in 2015, Hurell had his normal good game making yards finished his try well to outpace the cover defence, Lui was steady didn't do anything fancy but didn't expect too having only been in the side a number of days he put some nice kicks in and will hopefully grow as weeks go on. We started really well built up a 18-0 lead but were just not there yet when it comes to killing a game off when we can when it's 18-0 we should have been hunting for 1 or 2 more tries to make it 20 odd nil then the game would have been way more comfortable for us, Catalans ( who are very poor in attack and defence atm) brought it back to 18-12 very early in second half if we was playing a better side don't know if we would have won that game, but like I say that was a must win game and the end scoreline reflected that we were the better side hope we kick on from that now though.

Cuthbertson definitely MOM, he was superb. But Myler did play very well.

| Ball steal by Myler mid way in the second half was the turning point. I thought Les Cats were smelling blood at that point.

| Cuthbo was outstanding in both spells for me. Man of the match by a distance.
Team showed a bit of ticker today I thought. Was scary at 18-12 and weve lost lots of games from that position this year but we kicked on today.
Not a classic, far from it, I didnt expect it would be but I quite enjoyed the game if I'm honest.
We look like weve been working on protecting the catcher under the high ball. Newman particularly got right in front of Briscoe and gave him a clean catch. I've been banging on about that for some time.
Overall much needed win. 9 to go and 6 of them at home so let's hope we can kick on now.

At 18-12 I thought here we go again, but the defensive attitude is like a different side at the moment and we actually played smart for once especially the DG to make ir 3 scores clear.
Maybe Myler played better because he had an actual stand off next to him?
Hurrell was great and didn’t knock on at all today!
Ref was inconsistent, worse for me was Singleton got a clear as day head high tackle right infront of him and he just waved it away

3/4 more of them and we should be fine. Have to really target the games at HQ and be bang at it every time today is a good start.

Catalans always seem to spoil & play heavily on gamesmanship, must be a nightmare to referee. With that in mind my hunch (and it is just a hunch) is that Mikalauskas was conscious of the fact that he was penalising them a lot so in his efforts to even things up (and not be seen to be biased) he then gave them every call possible.
It was a skinny 10 metres throughout and even then they were stood in front of him but he never called offside all match (I don't think). There were 2 double knock-ons started by them where they got the scrum and as referred to elsewhere contact with Singleton's head was just ignored.
According to the YEP the final penalty count was 10-7, laughable that it was so close when their number conceded could easily have been double that.
