Macani didn't have a particularly good game yesterday, in fact, he was pretty average. And that average was a pretty low standard.

There were precious few I could honestly say had good games and in no way was Macani to 'blame' for the loss - other than the joint enterprise bit. We made mistakes all over the field, lacked leadership, seemed to drop as much ball as we caught and, to be honest, looked clueless at times. We started the game short of forwards and finished with fewer than we started with.

I'm sure we'll get reinforcements, at some (indeterminate) point in the future - unless, of course part of then deal to take over the club involved an agreement not to spend anything on new players. To be right, with everyone fit, I wouldn't pick him in my 17, but neither am I going to get at him when he was no worse than others.

Fair assessment methinks.

There's always a fall guy - every season. Might come up with a fall guy XIII.

Just seen the winning try on Oldhams Twitter. Doesnt make it look any better. Still screaming at Macani to run. He just didnt want to make that tackle.

I've just watched it how many chances did you have to stop him

That is the point though. That try could, and should, have been stopped whilst the ball was still in the Oldham half and quite a few times after, so why put all the blame the last guy to mess up?
