Hope not first 15 min we were poor.

But 2nd half the backs movement seemed much more slick in awful conditions.

Well I am on holiday in New Quay, (mid Wales note the space between New & Quay, not Cornwall!) so can't comment one way or the other on who did what.

I must admit to being pleasantly surprised at the result if not a bit shocked. The way Les Cats started the season I'd have never predicted that score given our form.

Were Les Cats on a par with Wakey? (I can't promise a response to anyone who answers as the Internet connection is rubbish here).

Was a decent performance by Us, I think people are going a little ott on how good it was just my opinion of course, due to Catalan being so poor, they couldn't do anything right bar a good couple of kicks, their ball control was shocking, some soft defence, and offered nothing in attack. It will be a better judgment of a performance this Thursday when we play wire.

Easier to say i told you so from a negative prospective than a positive one.

Thought Rocky looked blisteringly fast to catch up with Budgie to score his try. The more I see of this lad the more impressed I am getting.
IMO No1 priority to get this lads contract sorted with WWRLFC mr IL. :)

Superleague experience by the bucket load is what Ryan needs.
He has the potential and just needs time at this level of competition to hone his skills.
Personally I think Ryan has more to offer WWRLFC than Sam Tomkins.

Good performance, attack looking much more slick, still think we are not clinical enough but hopefully now the pitches are firming up and hopefully get lockers back we can become that clinical and ruthless team I hope of. I think we need to improve our short kicking game and We also need to work on that goal line defence as we did look vulnerable at times. One thing that does frustrate me is those lateral spreads in our own 10-20 meter area, they are a disaster waiting to happen.
