Initial thoughts.
Deserved the win.
Played well in the first half and blew them away, but could have been further ahead.
HKR were always going to come back at some point and our defence got tested but was dscent, althoigh their last play options and kicks were quite poor.
HKR were nowhere neat their best, but they've come off tough matches against Wigan and Saints and this was a game too far for them - similarities with how we played after the CC win against Saints.
King really impressed me with his ball carrying and work on the left with Ashton, although I thought he could have taken it closer to his opposite number/Burgess to give Matty a chance of more tries. He was my motm.
Very interesting watching Drinky missing out Williams and getting it wider - some great plays. He played very well I thought.
No real 'bad' performances but lots of things to work on.
A few too many pens and dropped balls for me BUT a lot lot better than the last 2 matches.
Not getting over excited as both teams can play better, but a win breeds confidence and thats got to be good going into a CC semi.
