We were our own worst enemy tonight from three quarters selection, pitts selection, no game plan, poor execution & lack of speed Our three quarters are slow over. Long distance & rarely make clean breaks, however I was pleased we stuck into the arm wrestle. The ref is incompetent on many facts of the game even giving 6 again instead of a clear penalty & thus ground is lost, allowing far too long to wrestling then shouting held but allowing slow release thus other teams re setting .
Like a lot have said we need a proper 6 Pitts is no way skilled ,fast enough and as not got a kicking game to play six. IN hospitality Trueman said he could be back in about 2 week but Powell said that about two week ago .Do not know why Warmsly was not playing we looked so short of speed down one side We have got some big problems with some of the players in the backs .and tonight was a big step backward Mr Powell as been lucky to get away with the calls he made tonight, Just thinking you can win games by forwards may work in the Championship. But you have to have backs with a bit of flair as well to win in S L and there was very little on show from Wakefield to night
I don?t know about backs not having flair. I think the left edge with Pratt and TJ went well tonight. They must have made a ton of yards between them in their carries.
Jowitt was also good once he?d blown off the rust. He needs to stay at full back.
The right edge needs looking at a little. Hall or Scott are centres and a winger needs to be on the wing.
I think our issue is we need a 6. One who can link up the plays between 7 and Max. Pitts as much as I like him received the ball and carted it into the line half the time like a forward.
If we bring in a halfback short term we will benefit hugely imho.
Farrimond, Whitby, Richardson etc. There has to be someone available surely until Trueman is fit.
I would rather see Stevenson there though than Pitts again. At least he would be able to link up and take some kicks in play off Lino.
