Squad v Wire

[Firestarter]

Ref tried to give them it, that’s a monster effort.
One of those games where you just have to say every player played for the team.
Harry Smith was brilliant, just superb throughout, nothing spectacular when we went down which slowed the game down. So smart.
Havard, massive effort and a very long stint.
Byrne and Shorrocks I also thought put everything on the line.
Love this team!

I honestly thought it worked in our favour having the man sent off.He gave us quite a few calls after that

Strange we haven’t seen Singleton yet? Or does it show the faith Pete has in Havard ability to do long minutes and he cannot afford to take him off?

Great efforts from Havard, Hill and King for me.

Need some better kicks from Smith on the last and more effort in attack from Shorrocks.

Thought Smiths Kicking was immense today . It certainly did what it was meant to do . Great effort from all and French s defence at Standoff was fantastic

I know Smith was given man of the match but Havard was outstanding in that game. I think he played about 65 minutes in total having just returned from injury and was involved in so many of the good things that we did. He really is a special player and you can see the difference he makes to the team.

Ellis was stupid. If a player is fired up and mistimes a tackle and gets a red you can sort of take that, it happens. To get sent off after 6 minutes for a headbutt is really stupid stuff. I think minimum we can expect is a 2 match ban which is so frustrating when we've been down on forwards recently.

We can't ignore the fact that Wire were absolutely abysmal, but it still requires a huge effort to get that win given the size of their pack and the threat that they possess. They have so many players capable of making breaks or making a winning play out of nothing that we had to defend heroically.

It's hard to single out individuals for that effort but I think Havard, Smith, Farrell, Shorrocks and O'Neill made huge contributions.

French defence and tackling immense today, less so going forward but a good all round game.
Field not yet fit and reluctant to really cut loose, that will come.
Havard, best one the pitch by a country mile.
Smith, very steady and his place kicking won us the game!!! Also, good inputs from both centres after a few shonky games.

I really hope we keep king.He adds so much to our team

[Wintergreen]

The effort was first class.

We still need a stand off, but if we can't have one, then effort like that goes some way to plugging the hole.

Effort will only take us so far but cant fault the lads today in D.Oneill was another too performer

Agree with all of that. Also think Miski is becoming un-droppable.

Thought Liam Moore had a really good game overall.

Your kidding ye I must have been to a different game. Only for video ref we were gone. As for game they where fantastic to a man but I have to say I am made up for Smith that kick from touch line with all pressure he has been under was poetry to watch go over was confident boost he needed. Well done lad.

I just meant to ball strip at the end to be fair. Think he was pretty spot on for most of the match. I was just a bit excited
