The sin binning was for kicking the ball away after he knocked on, think it’s classed as dissent

Pretty much that. An enjoyable, if low-key afternoon, and we scored some lovely tries. I don't know quite what's gone wrong with Wakey, Miller and Lino were are industrious as ever, but overall they were pretty poor, some of their defence really lacking starch.

As for Miski, I can understand Peet wanting to show faith and stick with him (maybe for lack of alternatives?), but it seems to me that even if he irons out his errors, he's just so goddamn slow for a winger!

But if we can get Marshall on the left and French on the right... :D

So is French injured, or just taken off?

Ellis had a strong return,Mago good as well but again tempered at how bad Wakefield where today still back on the winning horse which is always good.

I do worry that in the last few home games only 3 stands are being used is the DW too big for rugby league I wonder?
Why if away fans bring poor support. 11000 plus fans is better than expected after trip to saints over a bank hol weekend period

Kicking ball in stands. Slowing game down

Biggest win of the season points wise and quietest forums been all weekend. :lol:
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Threw the ball away!
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Easter Monday games can be pretty tedious but this one wasn't.
Our first try from French was quite brilliant. Also some other really great tries and entertaining rugby.
Glad Harry Smith can a good game and with a try and outstanding goal kicking.

Dissent typically is, depending on the situation and what's gone before, and kicking/throwing the ball away could easily be seen as dissent, against depending on the situation.
