Thought many on the team had great games.
Bullock had his best game for a long time and led from the front. He was my mom.
But lots of other good performances.
Powell had a very good game as did Drinky.
Holroyd was immense in defence and none of the debutants let us down. Shouldn't get over excited as it's one game but certainly promising.
BUT Wrench was very out of sorts and Tai had a mixed bag.
Musgrove was not good in the 1st half but better in the 2nd.
On that showing Bullock would be in the 17. He really tore into Wigan.
Keirans red card - very bad tackle. Red fully deserved, but I'm not holding my breath with the disciplinary hearing. They'll cite he was falling etc. It should be a ban of some sort but....
Re the Dupree 'head butt' - no, even though there appeared to be a clash of heads I believe Dupree was moving forward getting up and there was a lot of messing about at the ptb without a deliberate head butt. I appreciate others may disagree.
In a perverse way, my view is that even though we lost and there is a feel good factor and high confidence in the squad, Matty Peet will use this as a wake up call for his team and it could still work out in their favour. He'll undoubtedly be reminding them that they need to respect the ball more and they'll go jntk tne final wanting to put things right.
