| What a brilliant victory, David Furner has held his nerve and shown what a great coach he is.

| Ferres and JJB should be nowhere near the 17.
Like already mentioned Trout has got to be in the 17 instead of either of those two.
When ward and Smith are fit that should be the end of those two.
Also good to see the likes of Crosby and Ablett still warming their ar$es in the stand.

| Dwyer mom without doubt, Albert looks a shrewd buy Oldezki & Donaldson also went well. Ferris cant we send him out on loan what a useless load of crap. We did the basics right in the first half but got drawn into one up scrapping in the middle second half. All in all a very good and needed win roll on Monday.

| Even Ferres's attempt to run in when the biff started after Petru's tackle was half d.
Cracking win though. The performance might not be of the greatest quality but that's not what this team has to do. Right now they have to dig out results and build their confidence. Hopefully it's on the up after today. Really need to back up the win with another against Wakey

| Personally I thought Albert, Peteru and Oldedski went well up front.
The halves was good for me. Sutty looks to have got some confidence and was strong and direct and Myler got us around the park.
Dwyer was instrumental in the 1st half and deserved MoM.
Lolohea is the best full back at the club in my opinion I love Walker but he doesn't have the creativity of Lolohea andI would keep him there.
People are saying Ferres was poor but he seemed to put a lot of great tackles in and I thought he was pretty solid overall.
Happy with the win , far from perfect, but was badly needed and the team can now hopefully gain some confidence and kick on starting on Monday

| I like that after the first half made us think things were great again, they played mostly rubbish in the second just to remind us not to get too excited...

| Credit to our front row who I thought outplayed theirs, Albert really drove in and Dwyer has become key to our attack. A much needed win, that heat will have drained both sides and with us playing 20 mins with 12 men won't have helped.
We seemed to try and close the game off from half time.
Next few games could be a bit of lottery for many teams with plenty of injuries like us and wakey. Hope koni is not too bad and Merrin can play on Monday.

| the game against Hull Kr on the 28th will be a massive game for both teams I feel, if we win on Monday and a win against Hull KR the easter period will shape our season.
I still think at some point we will string a few wins together, I’m hoping today was the start of it.
We’ll probably waste going to a severely injury hit Wakey and serve up a shower of though

| Dwyer was excellent again, along with Hurrell our best of the season so far imo.
We played some good stuff in the first half but we look so fragile when the opposition have a good spell. The defence stopped moving up and Huddersfield were making metres at will. If the ball hadn't fallen for Handley it could have been a different story.

| Also I know he gets some stick but we do look a lot better with Myler in the team, he seems to be the only one in the team that can guide the team around.
I think Sutcliffe has got the stand off position pretty much guaranteed bar injury, I’m not saying its deserved but that’s how it seems, if we can guarantee safety with a few games to go Id like to see Mclleland get a run though.
Hirrells injury could be the making of Newman who IMO is a real talent.

| Great first half. Very poor second half. Huddersfield were poor. Really pleased to get the win and some encouraging performances.
Very little to wax lyrical about though. They have a run of very winnable games that could pull us out of the relegation issue.

| That first half was the worst we’ve played all season- we made a very ordinary Leeds side look good. Shocking first half performance.
Just looked like they were wary of using any energy- wardle just watched briscoe score his try.
Best player mackintosh- he was also our worst player at times with some awful “passes”.
Forwards poor compared to the great game they played last week.
Leeds aren’t owt much but we made them look brilliant.
Our lads reverted to type After that second try where Leeds scored off being a mile offside and their heads went. Again.

He wasn't offside, pause the highlights when the ball comes off Dwyers boot, Donaldson is in line

| I actually didn’t think we were that great today. Huddersfield were just really poor. I suppose there were flashes of good play in attack in the first half, but as soon as we had any defending to do in the second half we looked all over the place. Or am I judging us too harshly? I suppose we’re a bottom half of the table team now. Still, good to get the win and see a few tries scored.

Bit of both, we had a lot of shifting positions to do with Hurrell going off injuried then having 2 sin binnings and sutcliffe going off for 15 mins.
Interesting to see we scored 3 from kicks on the last which has generally been poor this year
Id like to see Briscoes sin binning again, to me he got binned because it looked dangerous rather than him actually causing it (if you onow what I mean?)
In some ways the performances are pretty irrelevant in the next few games, I’ll take 2 wins from the next 2 games even if it’s down to the other team playing poorly

You are spot on. In terms of missed tackles, it was our worst performance of the season. How you can win a game with 50 missed tackles is a bit of a joke. Of course the heat and two sinbinnings have to be taken into account, but the stats are horrendous in relation to what was seen.
Myler and Singletons defence efforts are utterly abysmal, and inexcusable. I suppose at least Singleton attempted a lot, unlike sone of his teammates, but 9 missed tackles is just a joke. Especially when Peteru also at prop is one of only three players not to miss a tackle. Myler missed 8 tackles.
Oledzki take a bow if stats correct, by far and way out on his own and only player above 30 tackles.

| Why cant people just be happy with the 2 badly needed points? Doesn't matter how they come, we don't have to apologise for winning.
I will take the win no matter how it comes. Were a team at the moment with little to no confidence so the performance is obviously not going to be perfect.
The team had a lot of positives in it yesterday.
Be happy with the 2 points and move on to Wakey.

I don’t think anyone is moaning Marty. At the same time we can’t have our heads up our bottom either. Facts are facts. We played the basics perfectly in the first half, and were clinical which shocked Huddersfield. Over the 80 minutes our defensive effort was shocking, as shown by the stats to back it up. Those points are not debatable. How some have highlighted certain players as positives when the stats show the opposite again shows how naive some can be, purely based on a score line.
On the other side, I personally right now would rather have stats like that each week and the two points than lose. Of course on the proviso that the club are not as naive as fans, based on that result. That isn’t moaning, it is just having a sense of realism. Although if you want it evening out, Wigan missed 49 tackles in their game.

The main stat defensively is we conceded 18 points. This team is capable of scoring 18 most weeks. It doesn't matter if players miss tackles, what matters is somebody covers that missed tackle and in the main we did yesterday.
Of course the defence has to improve but we are in a position where only the win matters so let's accept the win and stop focusing on negatives.
The players should now gain a bit more confidence which will hopefully help offensively and defensively.

Your reading this all wrong Marty, and coming across naive, which I don’t believe you are. Your overall point is correct, let me say that. However, that point is incredibly unfair on a team game, to ignore individual performance. It is all well and good talking about somebody covering, but those type of individual performances in defence more often is not the right way to look at all. Why should they have to cover for weaknesses? Do those players deserve the shirt with repeat performances? Like I said previously, we are not talking a couple of missed tackles, you are talking a big percentage of attempted tackles missed.
