22-6 at half time. Great 1st half performance.

It seems strange to say this but the word that comes to mind is 'clinical'.

Not so much now. :/

Give us a clue. Believe it or not some of us are not well enough to turn up every week.

Great great this lol, lucky I listened on bcb

29-22 to Bradford in the end. Great first half in just about every department. Lost control a bit in the final twenty but still impressive overall. Where I expected to be at this point, at least in terms of level of performance, we're streets ahead.

Thanks.

We've put 127 points on Toulouse on two matches now. They should have a look at their defence really

Let's be honest, if we'd been offered two wins from the first four games we'd have been delighted to accept



As for today, the first half performance was, as has been said, 'clinical'. We played them off the park basically. And not scrappy tries either - well worked, well executed tries every one of them.



OK, so the lads ran out of steam a bit at the end and fell away from that standard (not helped by a few baffling decisions from the ref) - and Toulouse came strong at the end. I confess to being mighty relieved when that drop goal went over because it would have been a travesty if we hadn't taken two points after that performance



Really, really pleasing win

A real game of two halves.



What a first half that was though, if we can get anywhere near that for most games, then I think we will do ok this season.



-8. Wahay. Well played.

A much more solid performance and not outmuscled by that much, as well as plenty of spells on the front foot. Like vbfg says we look much better than I think we had a right to expect.



As we won, I can comment on the ref, it's not that he was that bad, but they have to make close calls all the time, yet so many went in Toulouses favour it wasn't funny. In the second half we were kept inside our 40 for lengthy spells and all the defending we did it was no surprise Toulouse came back into it.



In contrast Toulouse could mess around at tackles almost with impunity, and if the pass out to Ethan was forward, then no more so than the one Toulouse had been allowed earlier.



I mention this because things started to go against us in numbers, and it was interesting how we reacted to adversity, pleased to say we just got our heads down and got on with it, no panic. Plus, old heads Moore and especially Pryce were worth their weight in taters in keeping the wheels on, and we did pretty much all the right things, including setting up twice for the crucial DG.



Thomas was very good at the back too, just one mistake with a swirling ball, coped with everything else and kicked some good goals.



How though Odsal manages to always contrive worse weather than the last time, lord knows. Everyone on the field deserved a medal, plus if I heard right, then 4100 at home in hellish weather against opponents without a fan is as impressive as the closed toilets behind the stand is not.

Those toilets need sorting pronto. It was no fun trudging all the way up to the top
