Yet we let them score 12 points
Very professional, I'm sure.
All part of the master plan, eh?

No but I do think our game plan was spot on for 70 out of 80 minutes to give a performance providing a controlled victory at a ground where winning isn't easy.

Being in the position where we could afford to concede 12 points in the last 4 minutes is a performance worthy of praise in my book especially given the excellent long range tries we scored; others prefer to find faults. Each to their own.

Would hardly call it irrelevant,14 points lost can mean a difference to finishing position.

With Cas breathing down our necks, and two away games to the top 2 to come, as well as a smelly away trip to HKR (not exactly a happy hunting ground, over the years) today's unprofessional ending, MAY come and bite us on the proverbial.

Here's hoping it doesn't

Hill was excellent today, along with Goodwin, Coops and Hughes good.

Livett went off injured at half time, but kicking aside struggled for form again for me. Atkins is pushing his luck with Toby King fit again.

Oh I just can't wait Toby King.

Not this season. We are miles off Saints and streets behind the Pies.

Really I never saw that . I’m on about the teams behind us Cas and Hull.

In the Guardian it was all about tightening defence and working on it all week. So I don't think price will find conceding 30pts again as irrelevant. However it would be churlish not to congratulate Wire on the win.
