Second week running that we've won 40 odd to nil and yet I've ended up feeling a bit deflated.
We really should have won by 70 today. Just needed better ball retention!
On the plus side, enjoyed my day out in North Wales. Sat between chav corner and the Cru-cru-cru fans - plenty of banter...
I'd have taken (bitten their hand off, more like) 48 to zip before the game, but yes I felt we'd not really played to our best.
JK, rightly, said that they tried lots of things and sometimes they don't come off, well yes, I can accept that totally but many of the errors were simply in contact errors, not just when doing the flamboyant stuff. Again, I can't remember the ref giving any 'ball stealing' decisions (I may be wrong..) so we must assume these were loose carries or he missed quite a bit of what went on in the multiple tackles.
Some of our play, particularly the tries, was superb though with Chissy the man of the match but Lilley, Crossley and Ryan also outstanding. As was Keyes when he came on with the pack generally giving quality performances though I thought Peltier seemd a bit subdued. Maybe carrying a knock?
