Bustin eased my slight worries about our depth in the prop department. He is a unit and it looked like the opposition struggled with him everytime he had the ball. Crossley, Peltier and Bustin are the three main props for me with Kirk, Wood and Davies fighting it out for the fourth spot/providing cover for injuries.

Agree about how fluent we looked in attack. This team has a lot of points in it and I think we are going to enjoy this season. Kear just needs to ensure he keeps them grounded for the more difficult games like York, Keighley etc. There is a big disparity between the top and lower half teams in this league.

Minchella looks like he is going to be the Bentley of the team when it comes to try scoring. Brilliant signing.

He was stood completely in the way. But apart from that howler he had an ok game.

The biggest shame is that when we booed the ref for his decision, it came across as if were booing West Wales, when nothing could be further from the truth. I don't begrudge them their try for a second, much as I disagree with the referee's decision.

Yes I agree and I hope our Welsh friends don't think we were booing their team efforts.

Given that most folk stayed to applaud them off I don't think they were too upset.

Got to admit I was very pleased West Wales didn@t resort to grubby tactics ala Keighley even when down by a big score. Played some good rugby at times but our defence was a class apart. Agree with everything said about the likes of Hallas, Halafihi and Minchella. And really class from Minchella to say that about not cheapening Les' record even though I was a litte excited he could have broke it! Great performance all in all. McNally did look like he was running in treacle though
