I was there for my sins and even received the wanky wanky wanky Halifax chant personally by a young Fev fan walking to the ground, he was soon picking his teeth off the floor, that last part is a joke by the way. As for the game i would say over the full 80 mins we created more chances ie half breaks and clean but couldn't finish enough of them off to win the game. Fev were more clinical and as the game wore on exploited our weakness on the edge to take the game away from us even when they had Gale sent off they scored 3 tries to 1. Eden went off again after about 60 mins mark, Douglas made more of a impact in his second spell, Connor Davies played instead of Kav and Barber came on for him but then had to move to centre when Eden went off. Wellington Albert made a difference for Fev coming off the bench with his offloads and scoring a crash over score, we don't have anyone who makes that sort of impact and I am just glad Springer didn't play because they would of had 2 big impact props.
Was this performance a step forward, in creating more chances yes, in not finishing enough of them off to win no. Then look at our defence very week we will probably need to score about 30-40 points to win a game because of how soft we are in D. Getting turned over for not playing the ball right 4 times in the first half, some wild and poor passing when in good attacking positions and looking the weaker side when they had a player sent off in the last 20. How long this is allowed to go on for who knows maybe until the York game with them struggling too could be a turning point one way or the other but we badly need some new bodies through the door and fast.
