Well well well I didn’t see that 2nd half coming, how wrong some people are the internet coaches surprisingly don’t know more than JC, Myler and Lasty. We needed old heads alongside our young crop of talent and a good Sh(Sezer) to guide us round the park. Not all about pace when you have a good 1, 7, 9 &13, we have enough pace in the two wingers who are proving to be phenomenal talents. 


Rapana immense always gets us going forward, Asiata brilliant link up moves us round brilliantly, Sezer the missing link fantastic hands and kicking game also speeds us up with ball in hand, Amir at 9 fantastic and a tough player, Hardaker another shrewd signing made a great break yesterday plus plenty of versatility. Only Holmes and Chamberlain yet to prove there worth. Big Jed and Knight have added amazing size Our pack. Ashworth looked good and little Brad off the bench put in a great shift and hit Nsemba three times in 2nd half and nullified him, fantastic performance small steps but definitely going in the right direction. Three away wins already after none for 18 months. 


Keep up the good work JC, Richie and Thurkill I trust in you and believe in everything you are doing. 

Would have liked to of seen a replay of the tackle that preceded the Asiata sin bin. On first glance seemed to loose it in the initial contact. If he just told him he thought it was a knock on then that's a weak reason from Kendall to card him. If this was happening with other refs then we would have to say its our own fault but it was the same in the Catalans game with Kendall, just not wanting us talking to him but ok with the opposition.

I said last week was the proudest I've felt as an FC fan in a while, and this week has topped it. What an amazing effort - especially backing up after last week's golden point match. 


Last year's team would have lost that 50-0, there'd have been talk midweek in the HDM about how the players were going to right their wrongs, they'd learnt lessons etc...then they'd go out and get tonked again the following week...and repeat. Zero accountability from a lot of the players. 


Cartwrights post match interview shows one of the biggest differences to last year - player accountability. He said the half time team talk was player led - there's a lot of players in that team who have a lot of personal pride and desire to win - you could see it in their second half performances, they wanted to make up for the first half. It's got a feeling of the 2016 team, the players have a togetherness, don't want to let each other down and we have that desire to win every game, no matter the circumstances.


Finally - how was Borouh not a starting player at Salford, one of the most underrated signings in SL this season for me, turning in to a brilliant player. 

Yes and he was written off by some on here before he pulled a shirt on because he wasn't being selected by Salford. Same with Hardaker at Leigh.


Maybe Myler knows more than they do after all.

After watching the game again today a few things really stood out. The first being the carries and metres that both Barron & Martin made coming out of our 20 was fantastic. The performance of Sezer especially in the 2nd directing the play & his running. Hardaker & Bourouh who have really stood up since joining the club. I know Big Herman often and rightly gets spoken about, but thought Knight & Ashworth really drove us forward. 


Every player from 1-17 put in one hell of a shift and that’s all we ever ask. 


Great to see the togetherness not just of the players, but also the Coach and the owner too. 

Hard to say after a a decent start to the season from us, but need to see more from Cust
