ATEOTD halves make a huge difference to teams, can't blame Agar for this lose IMO. With regards to Phelps, perhaps he was injured? Humberside mentioned that he was talking to the physio, no point risking him with the game gone.

We can beat Salford at home, but whether or not we do beat them is another matter.

| Realistically, we only have the CC anyway. That was true before tonight and it is certainly even more true now.
We aren't good enough to finish high enough in the SL table to trouble the play-offs so let's just hope that Agar can get us to perform to our best in the big CC games. Although his track record in the big "must win" games is shocking !

Might depend on how fit Obst, Phelps, Dowes, and Ogre are.
We go all season with relatively few injuries and then start picking them up just as we start a difficult run-in. Typical.

This is a very accurate description of the game. It was a terrible match. Both teams dropped a lot of ball but we beat you in those stakes. What kept us in the game was our defence - until the last minute of the match, that is (we have only managed to defend well for 80 minutes against Leeds and Wakey this season).
Your last try was fantastic. Easily the best of the match.

Dowes, Obst, Phelps back apparently, so just Gleeson and Long out. Unless Sharp is injured?

| Awful game won by the least worst team.
Neither side could do anything with the ball, and ended up trying to make miracle passes, which just resulted in knock ons or turnovers of possession.
Briscoe was just about your only dangerous back. He was very difficult to put down throughout the match and did a lot of work infield acting like an extra forward.
Your pack ran quite hard, but with little to no direction from the halves and the hooker, they didnt really amount to much of a threat to Saints.
A half decent side would have mullered Saints today, but sadly on this showing your a pretty bad side.
You desperately need a decent coach.

dowes strained ligament damage could be very doubtfull, obst slight tear in calf again could be very risky playing him but phelps and fitz looks certain to play next week you would think. obviously longy out would like to hear more from the club or rich regarding gleeson when he could be back but wont go into that. salford have won again tonight on 18 points right behind us will be a very tough game on paper yeh we should win but salford will be right up for this and knowing us we always make hard work of games like this

Salford narrowly beat a poor Quins team tonight. They will indeed be right up for it but if we can't beat them at home we don't deserve to make the play offs.
I expect us to win but don't expect it to be easy. Or enjoyable watching.

| Sounded like we had a good dig and without so many key players it was always unlikely we'd win.

I'd agree, sounded like the effort was there but lacked a little composure and organisation at times. That's what comes with no 1st choice halves and no captain.

Usually I think he does ok but tonight he hated us. Think Doc has become a very good commentator though, and I liked him when he played for us.

He will have been if he was playing 7 and oranising the attack.....Horne isnt a organiser and would have trouble organising a pi$$ up in the pub...No disrpepect to Horne,its just not his stron point.

| I see Horney brought his usual drop off in to every set of attack we had, he seems to do it real with no effort. Which makes it so predictable!

| We weren't aggressive enough, our line speed was really slow. To win any saints team you have to get in their faces and we didn't do that at all, tbh saints probably made as many errors as we did but they were more clinical than us.
I think we seriously need some craft around the dummy half, saint's dummy half options last night were far superior. Tickle was my MOM.

| Horney was always going to struggle with the loss of Obst imo. With Obst out Horney had to take on the role of organiser, lead kicker and the main source of creativity which arent some his stronger points had Obst being fit Horne would have being free to do what he does best like support the ball carrier, burst through a gap etc...

| Your forwards ran hard, but everytime they were barrelling straight into the chest of the tackler, making some yards but not creating much threat past that.
In contrast, the Sainst forward "hit edges" which gave us a few more half breaks, and our halves seemed to balance forward drives with wide ball much better.
At the end of the day, if either team had sharpened up ball retention, they'd probably have won the match easily.

| Never thought that we had enough to win the game to be honest. Can't knock the effort but the error-rate and lack of class stood out like a sore thumb and that's why we're scrapping for 8th and you're fighting for 3rd/4th.
