Was a very good win and fairly decent performance. Westerman was up for it from the 1st minute and gave the opposition problems all day long because he promoted the ball - there was a definite change of tactic there. That is the westerman i was hoping to see when we signed him!
Their pack was much bigger than ours, Walmsley was unplayable at times for them. There was an occasion when we packed down in the 2nd half, when you just didnt recognise any first team forwards bar Westy. Hadley gone after 10 mins, Mini was injured in back play, Howarth was in there with Feka and Cunningham - they still had Walmsley, Masoe, Roby, LMS, Amos, Richards - thats some effort.
Naughton was excellent on debut, be unlucky to lose his spot. If Yeamo fit should come in for Talanoa who again was a total liability at times, exposes players around him every time, has ridiculous brain farts, gave the pen away that led to their 1st try and then was also offside from the re-start. Was culpable in costing us the game at Cas and did some ridiculous stuff in the derby too. He worries me.
So, no fluke, when you consider the advantage they had up front, we managed to stay in the game and then had enough class in Westy and Pryce to see us home.
