Having had time to digest things , yesterday can be summarised by two teams neither at the top of their game on the day slogging it .We were not brilliant but neither were Workington,in the end heart and desire won the day and you simply can't buy that.
The aftermath of the result is very telling on many fronts .Excuses from our friends up the road
The game went on too long,maybe if their players didn't go down at every breakdown to slow the game down,then there would not have been as much time left.
The ref was awful,I would say the ref was consistent, he penalised both sides the same ,and only WRLFC ended up in a team warning .
They had a good try disallowed for forward pass? while Whitehaven had two disallowed for double movements
Their fitness was shocking ,after numerous assertions of how fit they are ,after 60 mins most of them were blowing like an old cart horse.
Then we have their coach ,some one who I admired as player ,I'm not a user of twitter,but one of my younger friends was showing yesterday evening some of his responses,also told me that he has removed from twitter anyone who comments on the victory .He comes across as a bit of a sore loser.
Final word must go to young Danny boy, to have one successful conversion from the touchline is very good,to have 2 one after the hooter to win the game .He must have nerves of steel.
Can we please sign the doran and Dawson next season,they can keep the rest .
