Thoughts on tonight : Fri May 15, 2009 10:18 pm
The rain was incredible - last time I got that wet was at a Hull away game .
Given the conditions it was always going to be a war of attrition and give the players big props they really toughed it out - the defence was something else.
The fact they played most of the game with 15 players and Ablett and Smith both looked lame at the end it was a fantastic effort.
Smith hammered us once again with the penalty count especially in the first half we need to address this quick if we are to move forward.
Having said that I thought we were a bit fortunate to get away with what seemed a high shot with two minutes to go and the final penalty was the correct decision. A bit a luck at last.
Senior really is starting to look like this might be a season too far - he needs using more sparingly as he is now having more bad games than good ones. Webb had one of those nights where nothing went right and he never looked like catching a high ball all night. As for Burgess less said the better.
On the positive Peacock, Buderus, Sinfield and McGuire were immense on the night closely followed by JJB and Lee Smith.
A draw would have been a fairer result tbh but a win is a win - was it worth getting soaked through? you bet it was
