| Quote kidda in guernsey="kidda in guernsey"As I said on the match thread:
Often when a team scores late on you might say the scoreline flatters the winners. Today it more actually reflected the game. One of the best offloads I have ever seen from Manu and great games from Yeaman and Briscoe.
Great to win but you have a good point. In the first 20 of the second half bar Fox's run, I dont think Rovers even got into our half. However, on another day those three no trys may have been scored.'"
On another day we might have lost because we can't turn pressure into points |

Maybe it depends if you are the glass half full or half empty type.  |

We did turn pressure into points - we scored 6 tries and 36 points, which is enough to win 19 out of 20 games.
I agree we could have scored more points though.
TBH I was more bothered about the number of times we dropped the ball and the fact that Rovers' first try came from an unforced error and their second one on the back of a penalty we gave away. |

| Quote Robbo4="Robbo4"Despite the scoreline being very close for most of the game I think we were much the better team and the final scoreline was more representative of that dominance. If we could just convert more of the chances we create we would be much higher up the table. Still dont think our defence on our own line is good enough to trouble the top teams but we were much better than Rovers today.'"
We do need to be more clinical but I thought our problem today was our goalline defence. We defended well throughout the rest of the pitch but our goalline defence was very poor and needs to improve otherwise we won't make any inroads into the top 6. Wire will kill us if we defend like that. |

2 tries in the last few minutes made the scoreline what it probably should have been anyway. At the start of the 2nd half we were pretty much in their half for 25 minutes before we scored. Had briscoe been penalised for moving off the mark instead of netherton being penalised for interference at the PTB then it may well have been a draw and we'd all have bee bemoaning the lack of turning pressure into points |

But Netherton did interfere, it wasn't a draw and we did turn pressure into points. Happy Days! |

Didnt totally click yesterday but looks very promising if we can build on it. We totally dominated them and on another day we could have won by 40 clear points. The difference in class was very evident.

Looking at the performance, we mainly won due to individual brilliance. Had we been better as a team, we'd have absolutely destroyed Rovers yesterday. They were really poor. We had so much possession on their line. Better teams would have been far more clinical.
Warrington next week won't be so poor. We can't expect individual plays to break down their defence, and we can't keep letting our defence get exposed on the wings like we have been doing.
