Peet has just said that’s the plan in as many words but the team isn’t carrying out the plan. If we don’t score again before half time we can fully write the game off.

I’m not a fan of OTT positivity either, particularly when a team has lost every battle on the field but we are where we are. I will offer one mitigation in the team’s defence, the six again rule kills us against a big team. Catalans just lie on, take the defensive reset and stifle any kind of attacking play we can offer.

I disagree, Catalans defence doesn’t look great when we get in their half, no reason if we got on a roll we couldn’t score 2/3 try’s in a short period like they have. It’s not likely but I still feel we have a fighting chance.

Bet teams must love fans like you.

Sorry mate your being delusion we have been 2nd best in everything, just not good enough at present, no way we win this game

Get him dropped for Hampshire great kicker as well

It seems like it’s the only way to win but we our offloading game isn’t great, I just think open the game up and hopefully our quick players can exploit players struggling with the heat. We need Smith to convert some of these try’s too.

No way we can afford the number of basic errors we've been making against a team like Catalans. We knew we'd struggle in the forward battle but with handling errors, kicks out on the full and obstruction penalties you have no chance.

The inconsistency in fundamentals has been 6 weeks running now. Not impossible to come back and we sneak a try early but a tough watch so far.

Packs getting mullered.

Not one mention from Sky of us missing 5 senior, first 17 forwards.

I’ve heard about Tom Davies turned ankle in training about 4 times though

Fuc*ing e had enough now pathetic

Not doing our points difference any favours. This could easily be 50/60 if Catalans don’t ease off.

Field, Nsemba, King and Miski - that whole right side are having defensive horror shows.

Second best in all areas today, being ripped a new one.

Take it and move on, fear the worst for saints next week, this pack will get destroyed

Can we rename the thread 'field needs to bend his back'?

Complete turd. Sick of hearing about culture, I'm more interested in talent and application.

What makes this worse is this was one of the few games I had down as winnable in this period, could be a tough spell until we get some more bodies back, really think we need to get offloading and try and play more expansive but sometimes it’s not as simple as that and you have to set a platform with your pack.

Come the cherry and white glasses wearing brigade defend this. Its been coming us getting mullered.
Yes where down forwards but this is no excuse for pathetic defence and commitment

Has he completed 1 tackle yet this game? Been a turnstile.

There’s some serious finger pointing needs to be done at Peet as well. Make a statement and get Smith and Field off. Sit them down for the last 25 mins and show people he has a grip on this team.

Dear oh dear !

Forgetting our display, I'm made up that Tom Johnstone is getting some regular game time. Excellent player.

Wasn't able to go this weekend but fair play to the Wigan fans for making all that noise in the face of this fiasco.

Not winning anything this year that team, absolutely shocking.

Pathetic, no intensity, no defence, no attack

I said last year that Field was a liability defensively and was laughed at because he made a one on one tackle in the CC semi final.

It’s all been scored on him today and the others around him have been on edge. Probably why he played 1 last year.

You’ve looked really solid in defence without him….

We’ve been bullied but we are missing a large proportion of our pack and Catalans have played well.
A defeat like this however is unacceptable though and what it points out again to me like it has a few times this season is we are maybe flat track bullies, when we physically get on top and dominate the ruck and territory we seem to revel (Saints, Warrington and most games we have won) when a team gets on a roll against us we really seem to struggle to stem the bleed and turn the tables.
Tough few weeks coming up and we could find ourselves out of the cup and a way off a home play off final spot. IL needs to get the cheque book out and get Dupree in ASAP.
