The sad thing about today, was that York are not that good, and without errors, we should have been going in 24-0 up at HT. I thought their first try was on the 7th tackle (Ref error), Cross's 'brain fart' gifted them 6pts, and also in that first half, Lawton appeared to crash over, yet they stole the ball, somehow, in a 3 man tackle??? It was at the far end, so difficult to see. Maybe James could see better from the press box?

2nd half was poor, 2 penalties kicked, never found touch (unforgivable), decision making in the York 20m, abysmal. IIRC Captain Jack kicked for the corner on the 3rd tackle, when there was nothing on. It was the typical 2nd half shambles.

I suppose on reflection there was quite a bit of effort, it's just decision making, and size that is killing us. The 3/4s are taking the ball at first receiver, too often, they are tiring due to doing the anonymous forwards work. Radical changes are required, my fear is that there's no money, and if we had any, no players available.

Difficult to see on the Lawton one, there didn't seem to be much protest from the Widnes players so perhaps just a loose carry.

Craven and Owens simply not leading the team and setting an example like senior players should at the moment, unfortunately.

owens seems quick to blame everyone else but never puts his hand up for his own mistakes

They have secured contracts for next season.......

If you look at the photo on the club site of Lawton in the process of scoring, you can clearly see a York player with his hand/arm round the ball trying to steal it!
