The real test now is backing this up in the League against Batley.

The first 20 minutes of the second half were dire. We seemed to have no idea of how to get across their line. And London could well have got in front when Macani got over but from a marginally forward pass. Last 20 minutes were excellent and I wonder why we could not play like that for a full 80. Gill and Millar are very impressive going forward, though both London tries came on their wing. We also need a proper half to go with Patton. But, onwards and upwards.

That scoreline hides the fact that there's still an awful lot of graft to do. That last minute spree mustn't fool the lads into thinking otherwise. I'm paranoid after the reaction to our Dewsbury win!

If we play like that next week we will get a towelling and wont be in a position to run away with the game in the last 15 mins. Large parts of the game we were god aweful and better teams would have punished us

That being said we hung in there and turned it on in the end. Good to see Scurr Hall and Kibula get a run out. Gill was class again and gets better and better attacking wise.

Looks like Matty Dawson is going to be out a while with a broken jaw. Rhys Evans also left the field presumably injured. Hopefully Jordan is back next week pushing Kear to the wing.

Tough one next week but hopefully a bit of confidence has returned qnd we can get stuck in. Its always a physical one against Batley

I didn't see the game but was pleasantly surprised by the result. Sounds like it was an arm wrestle for 60mins and we finished strongly. Better than scraping a win. SOunds like we weren't perfect though so definitely some improvement needed for Batley.

Hope the Evans injury isn't serious as we are short of bona fide centres in the squad.

How did Hall go? Twitter updates made it sound like he butchered a try after making a break?

I guess you can only beat what is in front of you, but I remain unconvinced until we put a run of performances together. Sunday we were only marginally better than a very weak looking London side (bar the final 15mins when they just totally imploded). Play like that against Batley and we will be one from four.

On the positive notes, Gill looks one hell of a player in attack and Patten's kicking game was in good shape. If we can get Lilley alongside him for a prolonged period, then we might be ok.
