Re: catalans : Mon Apr 27, 2015 11:56 am
Thought a few times we were a pass or half yard away from a score and on another day the game could've ended different. I guess we used up the good fortune in the reverse fixture @ home. Not a lot seemed to go our way at times, and even when the on field ref gave us a reprieve sometimes, the video refs took it away. Not pointing towards the ref card, just frustrating.
Looked a bit like Catalans targeted Tilse and he was on the end of some intense early hits. Welcome to super league.
Catalans may be one of the bigger/tougher sides in the comp, but we literally seemed to lose the contact/control/wrestle about 3 times a set. No surprise that we conceded penalties on the back of this.
Another commendable effort overall, but I think we needed to have a bit more firepower from the bench to see us past them.
Wondering how many of our players will be cited tonight? I remember seeing one suspect crusher tackle which wasn't one of them shown again on replay ...
