Sky team covering it pre match.

Posting some stuff here for those who don’t have Sky / at the game.

Not negativity just informational.

Averaged 15.5 points per game - lowest in the league.

Think it was 8.5 points per game against top 6

Drops to 6 points per game for teams above us

Danny McGuire said it all looks a bit slow, mentioned Powell solid player but slow out of dummy half, the loss of lockers probably key, too dependent on Hastings.

Wilkin a few weeks ago mentioned how Wigan’s slow ruck play stifles their attack too

He said it as politically correct as he could but it’s exactly what most of us have said on here - we don’t have enough of a problem for the opposite team at 9 so we are easier to defend against

Obviously Danny McGuire and John wilkin just scapegoating powell though - just Powell haters

It seems like we hope something will happen until the last tackle when we kick it and hope. Where is KPP?
