Having watched the game back now i thought we did a lot of the basics right during the game, Good go forward quicker defence structure and escare been the little diamond in the middle, And i also thought KR wasn't as bad has their fans are making out yes a couple of silly errors passing across the line but all in all they came across a determined Wakey side which didn't give them any space.

I've now watched the game and I thought it was a tale of two halves, cliche I know.
I actually thought we were poor in the first half and Escare had a mare mixed with a few good bits, under the high ball he is light years behind Jowitt and Hampshire. However not wanting to single him out the rest were not much better, same old issues for us, certainly in attack though the defence was no too bad. However as we failed to against Hull last week, HKR failed to capitalise on our mistakes and the possession and territory that went with them.
Second half we suddenly remembered we were a RL team of some quality and it showed. Very few mistakes in either defence or attack. We were direct, we supported the man with the ball but above all, we took every chance offered.
Massive improvement, but if we are to beat any of the remaining three teams we are yet to face we will need to play as we did in the second half for most if not all of the 80 minutes. It was a great effort, in fact, it was a massive effort and I applaud it, but we are still some way off our best, just my opinion.
