| Another kick missed, that even a bang average goal kicker should successfully convert, results in dropped points.
Roberts and Akuala anonymous again
Discipline poor again

| The passing from dummy half to the DG kicker was abysmal at the end, above the head twice, so the first one we had to run instead and the second he was put under pressure
Why pass 6’6” in the air to someone who’s 5’8”?
Poor

| There's a particular art in winning games, and this team doesn't seem to have it. I actually thought some of our rugby was fine, and then we would either drop in a brainDonald or kick a momentum-killing penalty.
Last ten minutes were pure panic, as ever when we get into a tight game.

Thought Sita did pretty damn well for once tonight. Drove in hard, made solid metres and didnt shirk any defensive duties. Dont know how long he was on the field in total but for me he did a lot right when he was on. Roberts not very good, he usual touch on that puts us in space. Neither were anonymous though.

In answer to your question, The Invisible Man probably did no more than 10-15 minutes out of 80. That's hardly a good return.
Roberts. Well you were right. He wasn't good. In fact, if I used the words to describe him, my mother would never speak to me again.

Oh definitely not. But anonymous both those players were not tonight. Anonymous would be Toby King. Roberts was in the game he was just not good. Sita doesn't deserve any flack tonight. Jack Hughes should get a fair bit though. He's falling back into that player where plays end with him every time. He gets the ball tonight and stops dead, crabs back inside and gets held too easily. Almost every play. I remember him releasing the ball maybe twice.

| I'm not really pointing the finger at anyone...although Levett was uncharacteristic expensive for us.
Our pack isn't big enough to tackle one the size of Catalans...it's not the packs fault...just what it is.

| When the opposition puts us under any kind of pressure we panic and loose all composure.
I will give a few typical examples.
Cooper (who i like) was pushed back by the dragons defence and panics because he is losing ground and tries a crazy offload. He did the same against Castleford when they upped their intensity.
Giving penalties away when we are in possesion (Charnley) and playing the ball with nobody at dummy half was very 2017.
The signs are a bit disturbing as when the opposition turns the screw in defence our structure goes out of the window and we start trying to make yards by just jumping out of dummy half.
We start appealing for penalties for high shots(patton) and loose any momentum whilst treatment / ref consults the VR the defence gets a breather.
We let the opposition off the hook on so many occasions. We just dont know how to put the foot on the throat.
The worse thing is that this is not just the last couple of weeks. Even on our winning run we struggled against the likes of Hull KR when they decided to play. We dont appear to be learning.

Wasn't trying to argue. Just legitimately didn't read right to me. I felt he did alright. Like you say, scored our first try, brilliantly i might add. Also scored what would have won the game too had it not been called forward. Had some nice touches and was hard to put down. Yes he did give away a few silly penalties though. Catalan are good at playing for them though.

| Terrible. I’d pack Roberts off home right away. Talk about stealing a wage.
Light in the pack. Chucking the ball round for the sake of it and running laterally far too often and making no ground.
Can’t remember the last time we put in a real good, complete performance. Perhaps Wigan in the Cup, but apart from that I’m struggling.
Tough game next week, one which we may well fall short in again if we continue like this.

I think having an effective captain may help.

| As for goal kicks ,Roberts had the advantage of his efforts being made closer to the posts than any of the kicks at Wigan ,which were all from the touchline.The ref & his touch judges were very poor last night ,allowing Catalans to get away with foul play & persistent offside for the full 80 minutes & someone should have been in the bin much sooner than 68 minutes. As for tries against,all Catalans efforts were walk ins through massive gaps in our once fortress like defence.
Must try harder but oh for a decent referee.
