Need 2018 season continues, it is
around five and hear what is we know | 0:00:39 | 0:00:43 | |
about the 12 teams so far. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
What a start for St Helens. My word
has he got it. Yell | 0:00:49 | 0:01:00 | |
another try. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:08 | |
Great try for Hull. 20 unanswered
points. Salford level! Look at the | 0:01:09 | 0:01:26 | |
pace here. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |
Our inside view on six more matches
comes from the Hull FC rugby manager | 0:01:35 | 0:01:41 | |
Gareth Ellis and Luke Robinson. The
leaders when it all kicked off her | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
St Helens and they took their
perfect record to Warrington. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
Add dummy half, St Helens looking
likely here at the moment. Megginson | 0:01:53 | 0:02:00 | |
cutting back, looking for any signs
of weakness in this Warrington | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
defence. Attack into eventually
managed to stop them. With the help | 0:02:02 | 0:02:10 | |
of a couple of others. Step back on
that left-hand side and a charge for | 0:02:10 | 0:02:16 | |
the line. St Helens first try. Don't
they were pleased. St Helens up and | 0:02:16 | 0:02:25 | |
running. Warrington switching it
back. Back on the inside. Really | 0:02:25 | 0:02:35 | |
testing them out. Philbin held up.
Clark is here. Spelling it back | 0:02:35 | 0:02:46 | |
again, Roberts with the kick, high
and hanging, questions being asked | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
and it's going to be a touchdown by
Tony King. Not backwards, no need | 0:02:50 | 0:02:57 | |
for the video referee. Warrington
respond. Roby barking at | 0:02:57 | 0:03:05 | |
instructions here. Walmsley.
Settling St Helens forward again. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:14 | |
They get a penalty, too much going
on after the tackle was completely, | 0:03:14 | 0:03:20 | |
Philbin hanging on for too long.
Chance to give his side the lead | 0:03:20 | 0:03:28 | |
here by two points. Eminently
capable. 30 metres out. Between the | 0:03:28 | 0:03:34 | |
sticks, big kick from Richardson. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:38 | |
It's been allowed to bounce here. St
Helens might get it back, they do, | 0:03:42 | 0:03:49 | |
it's dropped on by Percival. Mistake
right at the start of the second | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
half from Warrington. St Helens
giving themselves a wonderful | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
opportunity. Roby. Numbers moving on
that right-hand side. Duck for the | 0:03:57 | 0:04:06 | |
line by Lomax. You can see how close
he is, Roby against spinning it | 0:04:06 | 0:04:12 | |
back. Back on the inside for
McCarthy-Scarsbrook to drive in. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:21 | |
Warrington desperately defending on
their online, Roby is up and scores. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:27 | |
He has embarrassed the Warrington
defence with the run from dummy | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
half. What started to the second for
St Helens. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:36 | |
Good yards gained, only five away
from the St Helens line. Clark | 0:04:42 | 0:04:47 | |
Waits. St Helens coming off the
line, the kick towards the left hand | 0:04:47 | 0:04:55 | |
side, up for the arms, wonderful
pass and scores in the corner. King | 0:04:55 | 0:05:02 | |
doing wonderfully well. The referee
not entirely sure at this stage. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:08 | |
He's going to go to the screen. He
thinks it's a try. It's great work | 0:05:08 | 0:05:18 | |
on the floor, I don't think the
tackle was complete and Harvey | 0:05:18 | 0:05:25 | |
Livett has stayed in the field of
play. It is a Warrington try. Just | 0:05:25 | 0:05:30 | |
what they needed. Harvey Livett the
scorer. Swift. Theo Fages from a | 0:05:30 | 0:05:43 | |
straightened up down the middle by
Luke Thompson, good carry again by | 0:05:43 | 0:05:47 | |
him. Getting St Helens closer and
closer. Roby looks to his left. What | 0:05:47 | 0:05:54 | |
a wonderfully weighted pass that is
from Barbour and Mark Percival over | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
to finish. Delicious delivery from
Barbour which gave Percival his | 0:05:58 | 0:06:05 | |
chance. Watch this. Timed to
absolute perfection, drawing in | 0:06:05 | 0:06:13 | |
defenders and Percival is over.
Roby. In again by Kyle a more. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:25 | |
Wanted to get up and play the ball
quickly. Might have been asking for | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
a penalty but he's not got it,
Richardson is having a run, he's | 0:06:29 | 0:06:34 | |
flying away and he's got support on
the left-hand side. The kick, it's | 0:06:34 | 0:06:39 | |
going to be Percival for the
hat-trick. Mark Percival's | 0:06:39 | 0:06:44 | |
hat-trick, his second of the season.
Jumps for joy, St Helens in control. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:52 | |
Richardson the runner, you could see
the referee with his arm in the air, | 0:06:52 | 0:06:59 | |
porches hold down the middle and
then the wherewithal and the boys to | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |
deliver the kick per Percival to
finish. Here is Roby. St Helens | 0:07:03 | 0:07:10 | |
finishing this game strongly, Lomax
back to Barbour asking a few | 0:07:10 | 0:07:16 | |
questions, gets the off-load the
Percival, Brit steal of the kick N | 0:07:16 | 0:07:20 | |
and Richardson will finish. St
Helens finishing on a high. They are | 0:07:20 | 0:07:26 | |
going to win this at a canter
despite the early resistance from | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
Warrington. St Helens remain
unbeaten at the top of the tree. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
Was there a poisoned patience about
that victory? I think so, going | 0:07:38 | 0:07:43 | |
back, Saints renowned for going in
for a try and then exploding with a | 0:07:43 | 0:07:53 | |
few more and the freely at the game
is gone, but Warrington came back | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
into that game but St Helens
believed in what they were doing and | 0:07:56 | 0:08:01 | |
they eventually pulled away. Kyle
and Moore was on the programme a few | 0:08:01 | 0:08:08 | |
weeks ago and described Richardson
as cocky, does he show you all the | 0:08:08 | 0:08:13 | |
attributes of going all the way? Of
course, I like to see youngsters | 0:08:13 | 0:08:20 | |
coming in, at the end of the day he
is the architect, he is the piano | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
player. With the skill said he has
got I don't see why he wouldn't be | 0:08:23 | 0:08:29 | |
confident. He can kick the ball, he
can pass, he has got great vision | 0:08:29 | 0:08:33 | |
and seems an all-round player for
me. Another great half-back who has | 0:08:33 | 0:08:38 | |
been introduced. Real poise about
his play. There are a lot of young | 0:08:38 | 0:08:45 | |
kids in this team and I think St
Helens are seeing the fruits of our | 0:08:45 | 0:08:48 | |
really good academy setup, they have
had a dominant team for the last few | 0:08:48 | 0:08:53 | |
years. They are starting to come
through the St Helens Academy system | 0:08:53 | 0:09:01 | |
together and now they've got to the
first team together so they are | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
looking good. Saints going very
nicely, it goes without saying, what | 0:09:03 | 0:09:09 | |
do you make of Warrington, they've
had good bits and not so good bets, | 0:09:09 | 0:09:15 | |
being in games then falling away. We
need to work on our tackle control | 0:09:15 | 0:09:20 | |
they say? I think that means slowed
the opposition down in which every | 0:09:20 | 0:09:24 | |
team tries to do. They've been a bit
up and down, that is worse since | 0:09:24 | 0:09:32 | |
been good, the consistency
throughout the 80 minutes and | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
throughout the games they played and
that is what Warrington will be | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
striving for. They have got the
players that can do that, proven | 0:09:39 | 0:09:43 | |
players at international level but
that is what Steve Price will be | 0:09:43 | 0:09:47 | |
wanting, more consistency. No end to
St Helens perfect start to the | 0:09:47 | 0:09:53 | |
season but what about Wakefield?
They were looking to make it five | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
out of five at Wigan. History was
made as Tara Jones became the first | 0:09:56 | 0:10:01 | |
female official in Super League, she
was the end goal judge. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:05 | |
COMMENTATOR: Right-to-left here.
Running into traffic. Wigan plugging | 0:10:07 | 0:10:21 | |
away, still in range. Miller, he can
be a threat. The shape is good. Ben | 0:10:21 | 0:10:31 | |
Jones-Bishop will not be stopped
from there. Stunning finish. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:35 | |
Wakefield in front. Slow play the
ball, he cleared the ruck and then | 0:10:35 | 0:10:44 | |
Tyler Randle plays for the penalty
and it's been given. That will not | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
go down well. He pleads with the
referee. But the penalty is awarded. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:56 | |
And Liam Finn will just tip over the
two. Come away to the left side, | 0:10:56 | 0:11:05 | |
good hands, into the corner. The
Wigan right back in it now. Powell. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:17 | |
Away to the left side, fired all
this time well wrapped up. Sam | 0:11:17 | 0:11:24 | |
Tomkins. Back to the middle. Against
his old club Wigan go in front. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:37 | |
Pendulum swinging back Wakefield 's
way. Better the swinging arm, lovely | 0:11:37 | 0:11:44 | |
off-load. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
Randall. The option on the
right-hand side is good and Ben | 0:11:49 | 0:11:55 | |
Jones-Bishop gets his second. Really
sharp hands. Sharp as a tack. | 0:11:55 | 0:12:04 | |
Powell. Williams. They kept quiet so
far, great hands, Tomkins to | 0:12:04 | 0:12:10 | |
Burgess, try number two for him.
Wigan have a 4-point lead. All | 0:12:10 | 0:12:17 | |
climb. Through the hands. Tomkins
again, fine work to put Tom Davis in | 0:12:17 | 0:12:23 | |
the corner. The lead edges further
ahead again. Warlock Linda Williams, | 0:12:23 | 0:12:31 | |
Wakefield struggling to contain
Wigan. Opens up the traps, Joe | 0:12:31 | 0:12:37 | |
Burgess with the hat-trick. He made
sure of that one. Wakefield | 0:12:37 | 0:12:46 | |
desperate to claw their way back
into this game. Going on a raid. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:51 | |
Great off-load, and crashes over.
They are not done yet. Thomas | 0:12:51 | 0:13:03 | |
Leuluai. Into the hands of all
Flynn. Slow play the ball and I | 0:13:03 | 0:13:09 | |
think the penalty is coming. The
message is take the two. Sam Tomkins | 0:13:09 | 0:13:16 | |
to finish it off perhaps. 13-18,
Wigan and Wakefield's unbeaten run. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:22 | |
to finish it off perhaps. 13-18,
Wigan and Wakefield's unbeaten run. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:23 | |
Testament to how well Wakefield have
started the season that they are | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
disappointed to go to Wigan and not
get a result. And they will be, the | 0:13:28 | 0:13:32 | |
standards they have set over the
last few years have risen | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
dramatically. As much as they would
have looked at that game and felt we | 0:13:35 | 0:13:41 | |
could go there and win I don't think
they should be too disappointed. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:44 | |
Great start to the year and I'm sure
they will be looking to get back to | 0:13:44 | 0:13:48 | |
winning ways. Will it be key to
those top four aspirations they | 0:13:48 | 0:13:53 | |
clearly have two bounce back next
week? Yeah, and that's the thing. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:58 | |
You don't want to be a reactive
team. Going to Wigan away is a tough | 0:13:58 | 0:14:03 | |
proposition for any team never mind
Wakefield so they will be looking | 0:14:03 | 0:14:07 | |
forward to next week and hopefully
getting back to getting a W next to | 0:14:07 | 0:14:11 | |
their name. Some top pins -- Sam
Tomkins pretty much instrumental to | 0:14:11 | 0:14:19 | |
everything, what you make of the
system? He's going back to the old | 0:14:19 | 0:14:25 | |
Sam Tomkins were seized challenging
defenders. An under Orthodox sort of | 0:14:25 | 0:14:28 | |
of play. They're just tinkering at
the moment are whether they will | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
stick with it, the wanted to get all
these players into the game. Wants a | 0:14:32 | 0:14:41 | |
more attacking style and it seems to
be working. Yes, once it's a defence | 0:14:41 | 0:14:48 | |
of structure and once it's there
attacking flair and I'm not sure | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
which one he's going to stick with.
It seems to be trial and error at | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
the moment but it is giving him
options. One to watch out for as the | 0:14:54 | 0:15:01 | |
season goes on. Leeds Rhinos first
game since the Super League | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
semifinals last year, their
opponents as they were in the | 0:15:03 | 0:15:08 | |
play-offs were Hull FC. They met in
the semifinals of both competitions | 0:15:08 | 0:15:14 | |
last season, in the Challenge Cup
the black-and-white prevailed with a | 0:15:14 | 0:15:19 | |
comfortable win en route to
retaining the trophy. In the Super | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
League semifinals it was a different
story, the Rhinos progressed to Old | 0:15:22 | 0:15:27 | |
Trafford and gland final glory. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
COMMENTATOR: Hull there to keep this
go forward down to a minimum. Little | 0:15:33 | 0:15:45 | |
slip. Better than easier tackle
target than he might have been. Up | 0:15:45 | 0:15:56 | |
goes the kick, here comes the
challenge. Watkins has caught it and | 0:15:56 | 0:16:01 | |
Watkins scores. Wasn't much of a
challenge in the air because Watkins | 0:16:01 | 0:16:08 | |
dominated. Opening try of the night.
Five minutes played. Stoked drive | 0:16:08 | 0:16:18 | |
forward here by Singleton. Waiting a
dummy half. Across the line that | 0:16:18 | 0:16:26 | |
they created with the numbers, he
will love that moment against his | 0:16:26 | 0:16:32 | |
former side. Hesitation in the
celebration. We have to look again. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:42 | |
Try given on the field. They are
looking for obstruction but I think | 0:16:42 | 0:16:47 | |
it's a plane misread. Left such a
gap out there and nothing that Jamie | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
Shaul could do to stop him from
scoring and the try is confirmed. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:59 | |
Two scores mac and over Leeds in the
opening 15. They have got a bit of | 0:16:59 | 0:17:07 | |
width here. But they are going to be
held up for the moment. Sixth tackle | 0:17:07 | 0:17:16 | |
is the next so it's going to be the
kick which Sneed sends ADL, Griffin | 0:17:16 | 0:17:21 | |
underneath it. Little chip and its
going to be Logan who finishes. Is | 0:17:21 | 0:17:29 | |
this going to be given? Again we go
to the video referee. No try. They | 0:17:29 | 0:17:36 | |
are looking for offside, for this
kick here. It's a question as to | 0:17:36 | 0:17:45 | |
whether Logan was offside. This
might give us a more clear view. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:49 | |
There is the kick. It is tight. And
its no try. Not given. | 0:17:49 | 0:18:00 | |
Shifted towards the left-hand side
with a bit of venom and verve from | 0:18:04 | 0:18:09 | |
Hull. Ten away. Leeds coming off the
line quickly, grubber kick in | 0:18:09 | 0:18:19 | |
behind, it is going to be Hadley who
gets there first. The referee again | 0:18:19 | 0:18:27 | |
going for video confirmation one way
or the other. Picked up cleanly, no | 0:18:27 | 0:18:31 | |
doubt about that, touched down in
cleanly. I think the try will be | 0:18:31 | 0:18:37 | |
given year. Hull cover first try.
Right under the sticks. Out it | 0:18:37 | 0:18:48 | |
comes. Leeds under pressure. Hull
playing all the influence they can | 0:18:48 | 0:18:52 | |
here to try to get themselves over
again before the break. Spelling it | 0:18:52 | 0:19:02 | |
back. Little double pump, Griffin is
over. Josh Griffin powering in. It's | 0:19:02 | 0:19:12 | |
an instant replay required again.
They are looking at the obstruction | 0:19:12 | 0:19:19 | |
on Ablett. Certainly contact but
whether he had any involvement, they | 0:19:19 | 0:19:28 | |
are not going to give this. Griffin
denied. Singleton passing away, | 0:19:28 | 0:19:40 | |
Ablett in support. Here comes
Parcell. Leeds beating numbers on | 0:19:40 | 0:19:46 | |
the left-hand side. It's a good
trick of hand. Answered over the | 0:19:46 | 0:19:51 | |
top. Little chip all, is this going
to be a try for Jamie Jones | 0:19:51 | 0:19:59 | |
Buchanan? Has he got it down? I
think he has. Here we go again. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:08 | |
Another decision required for the
man upstairs. Offside here. Clearly | 0:20:08 | 0:20:17 | |
ahead of the ball and it's given as
no try. Out and active. The step | 0:20:17 | 0:20:28 | |
almost slicing through. Look how
close the liners. Trying to batter | 0:20:28 | 0:20:36 | |
other way over. Here comes the last.
Back to Meyler whose chip is | 0:20:36 | 0:20:46 | |
flighted superbly well. Connor has
caught it, just as well. Hang on. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:53 | |
The referee is having another look
here. Cholera was getting ready to | 0:20:53 | 0:20:59 | |
race and take the tap but the
referee has got the touch judge in | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
his year. What are you looking at.
Was that a push? Was that a push? | 0:21:02 | 0:21:09 | |
They have given the penalty and
Leeds are taking the tap. Finding | 0:21:09 | 0:21:14 | |
themselves through Delaney in an
excellent position here. Slammed in | 0:21:14 | 0:21:23 | |
again by Singleton. Here is Parcell
again. Meyler with the short pass | 0:21:23 | 0:21:31 | |
and back on the inside comes Kallum
Watkins. Wonderful angle, wonderful | 0:21:31 | 0:21:41 | |
try to celebrate. Second of the
night for Kallum Watkins. Little | 0:21:41 | 0:21:52 | |
shocked the soft shoe shuffle from
Golding. Carried up towards that | 0:21:52 | 0:21:58 | |
line again. Watkins with a little
pass back again and Briscoe picks a | 0:21:58 | 0:22:05 | |
path to score. Denied in the first
half but now against his former club | 0:22:05 | 0:22:10 | |
he does get a try, Tom Briscoe. He
will be delighted at that I am sure. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:22 | |
Sneed puts it back, little juggle by
Jamie Shaul but he's kept it alive. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:28 | |
Looking back towards the middle, one
or two gaps here if Hull can move it | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
wide. Stepping inside again but
Griffin is dragged down. It's a | 0:22:31 | 0:22:40 | |
short one, close to the line, Leeds
defence didn't quite work ready for | 0:22:40 | 0:22:45 | |
it and I think Jordan Abdull feels
he's scored and he is backed up and | 0:22:45 | 0:22:50 | |
his confidence by the referee
pointing the finger. It's been a | 0:22:50 | 0:22:55 | |
great response to the dying embers
of the game here. Taylor put down. | 0:22:55 | 0:23:03 | |
Shifting and wide. There is the
kick. Briscoe cannot get there. It | 0:23:03 | 0:23:15 | |
was Briscoe who got the last touch
the referee decides. Here comes | 0:23:15 | 0:23:23 | |
Meyler. The clock on the side of
Leeds at the moment, would not have | 0:23:23 | 0:23:30 | |
thought there was time for Hull to
get a couple of tries in what | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
remains of the game. Great to carry.
Offered in but taken wide. Taken | 0:23:33 | 0:23:47 | |
wide and the finish. Probably too
little, too late with time running | 0:23:47 | 0:23:54 | |
out and it might not even be a try
because we got to look at this | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
again. Let's have another look,
looks to be getting this down. He | 0:23:57 | 0:24:05 | |
has got this down. This will be a
try. So it narrows the gap. But you | 0:24:05 | 0:24:12 | |
would suggest Leeds have done enough
to hang on here now. You can hear | 0:24:12 | 0:24:21 | |
the countdown from the fans, this
should be the last tackle of the | 0:24:21 | 0:24:26 | |
game and it is. They did well to
clear the snow here at Headingley. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:32 | |
They have done well to get a good
crowd in here tonight and Leeds have | 0:24:32 | 0:24:36 | |
done well to get a win against Hull
FC. I'm not sure which of | 0:24:36 | 0:24:43 | |
take this. A few years ago we got
our knickers in a twist about | 0:24:43 | 0:24:48 | |
obstruction, by letter of the law it
was obstruction with Kyle Ablett, | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
but they didn't seem to make any
sense to anybody? I understand if a | 0:24:51 | 0:24:57 | |
player is getting taken off the ball
and is obstructing him getting to | 0:24:57 | 0:25:01 | |
the ball are getting involved in the
play. When it's | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
the ball are getting involved in the
play. When it's so far away from the | 0:25:04 | 0:25:05 | |
actual play itself I think a little
bit of common sense has to prevail. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:11 | |
15, 20, 30 metres from the play. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:15 | |
bit of common sense has to prevail.
15, 20, 30 metres from the play. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:16 | |
It's a dead set try. Everyone knows
that a try. The worrying thing for | 0:25:16 | 0:25:21 | |
me is we have this conversation
every year where we picked up, | 0:25:21 | 0:25:25 | |
correct me if I'm wrong but every
team does the same place, they all | 0:25:25 | 0:25:30 | |
have a dummy runner going through
and it desired affect the pull | 0:25:30 | 0:25:35 | |
defenders in. When it happened so
far away from the line it's a bit of | 0:25:35 | 0:25:39 | |
common sense. There are not going to
get involved in the tackle. Make it | 0:25:39 | 0:25:43 | |
easy for all of us. Richie Myler
settling in well | 0:25:43 | 0:25:49 | |
easy for all of us. Richie Myler
settling in well at Leeds, IDS is | 0:25:49 | 0:25:50 | |
kicking game? He reminds me very
much of Danny McGuire in his career | 0:25:50 | 0:25:55 | |
and how he developed. Started well,
there were a few questions about | 0:25:55 | 0:26:05 | |
whether he could take up the mantle
of the great Danny McGuire and he | 0:26:05 | 0:26:08 | |
seems to have stepped up and grabbed
it with both hands. He seems to be, | 0:26:08 | 0:26:12 | |
his kicking game is great, he is
patient, orchestrating a lot of the | 0:26:12 | 0:26:18 | |
attack, the good stuff happening
around Leeds and I think he's been a | 0:26:18 | 0:26:22 | |
revelation. Talking about the St
Helens use policy bearing | 0:26:22 | 0:26:27 | |
revelation. Talking about the St
Helens use policy bearing fruit but | 0:26:27 | 0:26:28 | |
it is really bearing fruit for you
guys particularly with the injuries | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
you have got. It was a really
positive thing coming out of the | 0:26:31 | 0:26:36 | |
game, the amount of young lads we
are almost forced to play because of | 0:26:36 | 0:26:39 | |
injuries but it gives them a chance
to play and some of our players, | 0:26:39 | 0:26:43 | |
Jack Logan has not played for two
years and he was out there looking | 0:26:43 | 0:26:46 | |
good. Jordan Abdull, good to see him
back after a loan spell last year | 0:26:46 | 0:26:53 | |
and pulling the strings when we were
at our best in the second half. Some | 0:26:53 | 0:26:57 | |
real positives to come out of the
game. Next up Leeds is a trip to old | 0:26:57 | 0:27:04 | |
rivals St Helens on Friday. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:06 | |
Wayne Bennett named his lead England
performance squad last week, two | 0:27:24 | 0:27:28 | |
Engle list based -- Windows-based
hookers. James Roby as good if not | 0:27:28 | 0:27:35 | |
better than ever? I think he is one
of the greatest players to have | 0:27:35 | 0:27:40 | |
played Super League. The form at the
moment is as good as it has ever | 0:27:40 | 0:27:43 | |
been. To give you an insight into
what he is looking at, James Roby, | 0:27:43 | 0:27:48 | |
as any good hooker they are looking
at are the markers set? If not he | 0:27:48 | 0:27:53 | |
will pick the ball up and | 0:27:53 | 0:27:55 | |
will pick the ball up and explore
that space. That bit of a gap. The | 0:27:55 | 0:27:59 | |
only way to defend it is plug the
gap, but he comes off the inside | 0:27:59 | 0:28:05 | |
foot, picks up Jon Wilkin with a
great pass, great vision and great | 0:28:05 | 0:28:11 | |
awareness to find the centre. Here
again, he's just looking, first port | 0:28:11 | 0:28:15 | |
of call is our other markers and are
they say it because if not he's | 0:28:15 | 0:28:19 | |
darting into this. St Helens have
been exposing teams but it is as | 0:28:19 | 0:28:24 | |
much down to James Roby as anyone
else. He plays with tempo, fast to | 0:28:24 | 0:28:28 | |
slow, slow to fast. Then on the flip
side of it, in the defensive work | 0:28:28 | 0:28:34 | |
keys man in the middle. They tried
to expose him but he's a great | 0:28:34 | 0:28:38 | |
defender, gets a square on and makes
great contact. He's realised, trying | 0:28:38 | 0:28:46 | |
to get 13 man defensive line, James
Roby has realised, better | 0:28:46 | 0:28:52 | |
perception, not only dummy with the
ball but the feet. Exposed the | 0:28:52 | 0:28:56 | |
full-back. | 0:28:56 | 0:28:58 | |
ball but the feet. Exposed the
full-back. He has got the most runs | 0:28:59 | 0:29:02 | |
out of dummy half, Daryl Clark has
played a game more and he is second. | 0:29:02 | 0:29:07 | |
Do you think with Daryl Clark
Warrington are trying to work more | 0:29:07 | 0:29:10 | |
on using the strength? He's one of
the best attacking weapons, his days | 0:29:10 | 0:29:16 | |
at Castleford, a site not playing
particularly well, he's looking for | 0:29:16 | 0:29:23 | |
the same things James Roby is. He's
got a wicked left | 0:29:23 | 0:29:27 | |
the same things James Roby is. He's
got a wicked left footstep. He | 0:29:27 | 0:29:28 | |
prefers to go to his left. You can
see going down the right side as | 0:29:28 | 0:29:32 | |
well. He's a great thread with the
ball, trying to get out, trying to | 0:29:32 | 0:29:37 | |
engage the defenders and Warrington
have been renowned for years playing | 0:29:37 | 0:29:43 | |
off off-load, it's something they
can utilise. Daryl Clark being as | 0:29:43 | 0:29:46 | |
you can be so electric. Trying to
expose that space around the back of | 0:29:46 | 0:29:52 | |
the ruck. Back to his best to do you
think? | 0:29:52 | 0:29:55 | |
the ruck. Back to his best to do you
think? I don't think so at this | 0:29:56 | 0:29:58 | |
time, he still a very good player
and deserves to be in the England | 0:29:58 | 0:30:01 | |
setup. Josh Frodsham injured at the
moment and he's not bad either. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:07 | |
Let's see if the Huddersfield Giants
can get back to winning ways against | 0:30:07 | 0:30:14 | |
Widnes Vikings. | 0:30:14 | 0:30:16 | |
COMMENTATOR: We know what is coming
here, it's going to be high and | 0:30:18 | 0:30:22 | |
testing. He's fumbled it and there
is Hinchcliffe to touch it down. The | 0:30:22 | 0:30:28 | |
Huddersfield Giants go in front.
Danny Brough pivotal to everything | 0:30:28 | 0:30:35 | |
another testing kick. Touched down,
this time. Penalty to Huddersfield | 0:30:35 | 0:30:44 | |
Giants, half an hour gone. Danny
Brough extends the lead. | 0:30:44 | 0:30:48 | |
Good ball into Oliver Roberts hands,
is he going to spin and put that | 0:30:52 | 0:30:56 | |
down? That is soft from Widnes.
Looking to break out here for the | 0:30:56 | 0:31:02 | |
Huddersfield Giants. Fourth man,
that was a horror tackle and the | 0:31:02 | 0:31:10 | |
punishment is suitable. Red card.
Danny Brough has been a mess -- | 0:31:10 | 0:31:23 | |
menace. Jermaine McGilvary gets his
try. Widnes have not laid a finger | 0:31:23 | 0:31:33 | |
on the Giants here but that is a
better position and there is Joe | 0:31:33 | 0:31:36 | |
Mellor. And body. The Joe Mellor.
Sweeping kick. McGilvary underneath | 0:31:36 | 0:31:45 | |
it, the ball bounces loose. Have
they got the options on the left | 0:31:45 | 0:31:52 | |
hand side? Super finish. Danny
Brough once again edging the Giants | 0:31:52 | 0:32:01 | |
brother in front. Perhaps a bit
awkward there. Stayed down, Ryan | 0:32:01 | 0:32:15 | |
Hinchcliffe the man who peeled away
from it. I think for that tackle | 0:32:15 | 0:32:20 | |
Ryan Hinchcliffe will get ten
minutes in the them. Widnes come | 0:32:20 | 0:32:28 | |
forward. Gilmour. Lovely wraparound
play to handle array, looping pass | 0:32:28 | 0:32:34 | |
to the corner. Got it all to do and
the finish is wonderful. Yet another | 0:32:34 | 0:32:42 | |
penalty for Danny Brough who's been
the architect for the Huddersfield | 0:32:42 | 0:32:46 | |
Giants tonight. | 0:32:46 | 0:32:47 | |
the architect for the Huddersfield
Giants tonight. Widnes indiscipline | 0:32:47 | 0:32:48 | |
costing them again. Danny Brough has
signed another one-year deal, | 0:32:48 | 0:32:53 | |
absolutely crucial to you isn't he?
His kicking game was exceptional. | 0:32:53 | 0:33:00 | |
Against the Widnes team which
started the season exceptionally | 0:33:00 | 0:33:03 | |
well. Throwing the ball out,
exciting play. Just did not click, I | 0:33:03 | 0:33:08 | |
think it was down to our defence.
The defence, we were good around the | 0:33:08 | 0:33:14 | |
ruck, got off the line and got them
face and created a lot of, forced a | 0:33:14 | 0:33:18 | |
of errors. You have blown hot and
cold in some matches, were you a bit | 0:33:18 | 0:33:26 | |
more consistent through the 80
minutes? That has been the talk of | 0:33:26 | 0:33:29 | |
the season for us so far, attacking
right for 20 minutes then struggling | 0:33:29 | 0:33:35 | |
defensively, then struggled
defensively and vice versa. Back and | 0:33:35 | 0:33:38 | |
forth. But we had an 80 minutes
where it wasn't great but we were | 0:33:38 | 0:33:43 | |
consistent. A nasty injury to come
back from, is he looking more like | 0:33:43 | 0:33:49 | |
his old self? He's very instinctive
with how he plays, he plays best | 0:33:49 | 0:33:55 | |
with a smile on his face. One side
of the field to the other side, | 0:33:55 | 0:34:03 | |
chasing kicks, diving fireballs he
should not be anywhere near the | 0:34:03 | 0:34:07 | |
vicinity. When he has a smile on his
face he is happy, plays great for us | 0:34:07 | 0:34:11 | |
and plays real good the other night.
Denis Betts saying it's as bad | 0:34:11 | 0:34:16 | |
performance as they had all season,
do you put that to one side do you | 0:34:16 | 0:34:20 | |
pick through the bones of it as a
coach? You're picking through the | 0:34:20 | 0:34:24 | |
bones are looking for reasons why.
Getting off to a good start in the | 0:34:24 | 0:34:29 | |
game is crucial to how the game pans
out as it goes on. They will be | 0:34:29 | 0:34:35 | |
looking at that as an area of
improvement for next week. They | 0:34:35 | 0:34:41 | |
started the season exceptionally
well but they have got a young lad | 0:34:41 | 0:34:43 | |
in that squad, they have all played
very well but it's difficult for | 0:34:43 | 0:34:46 | |
young lads to back it up every week
and I don't know that was maybe one | 0:34:46 | 0:34:51 | |
game too far so far? Now to the
Jungle were today John Wells has | 0:34:51 | 0:34:56 | |
been appointed director of rugby,
Steve Gilles stepping down as chief | 0:34:56 | 0:35:01 | |
executive in May. The Tigers had
their third consecutive home game on | 0:35:01 | 0:35:04 | |
Sunday when Salford were in town. | 0:35:04 | 0:35:07 | |
Castleford looking for the third win
in a row and got off to the ideal | 0:35:10 | 0:35:15 | |
start, Michael Shenton barging his
way over for the game 's opening try | 0:35:15 | 0:35:18 | |
with five minutes played. The home
side soon doubled the lead while | 0:35:18 | 0:35:25 | |
Salford remain camped on their
online. Paul McShane's meet grubber | 0:35:25 | 0:35:31 | |
kick and James Clay was there for a
last-gasp pounds. Little respect for | 0:35:31 | 0:35:37 | |
Salford but with 15 minutes played a
careless spear tackle from Oliver | 0:35:37 | 0:35:40 | |
Holmes gave the referee little
option but to send him to the | 0:35:40 | 0:35:44 | |
sin-bin and the Red Devils had a man
advantage. They were not able to | 0:35:44 | 0:35:49 | |
make it count, a Luke Gale penalty
nudging the Tigers further ahead and | 0:35:49 | 0:35:53 | |
more to come. On the half-hour mark
the book came into play again, the | 0:35:53 | 0:35:57 | |
grubber took a wicked ricochet and a
couple bumbles later touched down. | 0:35:57 | 0:36:04 | |
After a quiet opening half Salford
came out with intent in the second, | 0:36:04 | 0:36:08 | |
binding the gap in the Tigers
defence and the visitors finally on | 0:36:08 | 0:36:11 | |
the scoreboard. Salford struggling
to find momentum, Caddell 's words | 0:36:11 | 0:36:16 | |
continued to press with some
tensions and frustrations bubbling | 0:36:16 | 0:36:20 | |
the referee was forced to intervene
again. The grapple on the ground | 0:36:20 | 0:36:26 | |
between Logan Tomkins and Grant
Millington turned into a wrestling | 0:36:26 | 0:36:29 | |
demonstration with players piling
into try to break up the action. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:36 | |
Both Tompkins and Millington were
sent to the sidelines for ten | 0:36:36 | 0:36:39 | |
minutes. The penalty extended the
lead further and the game looked | 0:36:39 | 0:36:50 | |
dead and buried. The Jake Bibby try
in the 79th minute was scant | 0:36:50 | 0:36:54 | |
consolation for Salford who fans
will be the third went from four | 0:36:54 | 0:37:01 | |
keeps them in touch. | 0:37:01 | 0:37:04 | |
Do you think they are feeling their
way into the season now, Castleford? | 0:37:08 | 0:37:12 | |
I think so, there was always going
to be a lot of expectation matter | 0:37:12 | 0:37:16 | |
how they played last season. Any
team that has had that sort of | 0:37:16 | 0:37:20 | |
season it's always a challenge
getting the players are ready and | 0:37:20 | 0:37:23 | |
right for the coming year. I am sure
Darryll will not be too disappointed | 0:37:23 | 0:37:28 | |
with the loss at St Helens after
seeing how well they have gone I | 0:37:28 | 0:37:37 | |
think... They have a hangover from
the diamond formation, it's probably | 0:37:37 | 0:37:48 | |
taken a bit of adjustment to the way
they've played on to the broad in. | 0:37:48 | 0:37:54 | |
Jamie Ellis is exceptional and so is
Truman but it will take a while to | 0:37:54 | 0:38:04 | |
rumours that others might be going,
instability behind the scenes is | 0:38:04 | 0:38:08 | |
going to affect those players isn't
it. A bed of unrest at the top, we | 0:38:08 | 0:38:19 | |
were talking fair, they've not been
playing bad rubbish. Salford have | 0:38:19 | 0:38:24 | |
not been that far off, the structure
and the style of the way the play, | 0:38:24 | 0:38:32 | |
entertaining, lapses in
concentration now and again. If you | 0:38:32 | 0:38:36 | |
enjoyed what happen when Hull KR
played cattle and three weeks ago | 0:38:36 | 0:38:39 | |
when you are in luck because they
played again on Saturday. | 0:38:39 | 0:38:41 | |
There was an era of tension in this
game of cattle and still looking for | 0:38:44 | 0:38:49 | |
the first win and Hull KR only their
second. Defence is on top so early | 0:38:49 | 0:38:54 | |
points were just an exchange of
penalties. More point still to come | 0:38:54 | 0:39:01 | |
before them, Chris Atkins kick taken
in the air by George Lawler who | 0:39:01 | 0:39:06 | |
scored the resulting conversion
major it was all square at | 0:39:06 | 0:39:10 | |
half-time. Like the start of the
first half it was a story of | 0:39:10 | 0:39:12 | |
penalties being the only points at
the start of the second with | 0:39:12 | 0:39:15 | |
discipline having a growing impact.
First Ryan Shaw putting Rovers ahead | 0:39:15 | 0:39:19 | |
by two points. Then just three
minutes later Lucas Albert showed he | 0:39:19 | 0:39:25 | |
brought his kicking boots as well to
bring the scores level again. With | 0:39:25 | 0:39:33 | |
the game continued to be tight it
was a further penalty which | 0:39:33 | 0:39:36 | |
separated the sides just before the
hour mark, Alberta once again making | 0:39:36 | 0:39:40 | |
the chance countered that the home
side in front but still buy the | 0:39:40 | 0:39:43 | |
narrow margins. Eventually the first
try of the second half came and it | 0:39:43 | 0:39:51 | |
was the Dragons with the crucial
breakthrough, perfectly weighted | 0:39:51 | 0:39:53 | |
high kick to the corner taken and
daylight opened up. But Rovers were | 0:39:53 | 0:39:59 | |
not done yet. An awkward bounce from
Danny McGuire was mopped up by | 0:39:59 | 0:40:03 | |
Justin Carney. With a quarter of an
hour to go it was levelled again. In | 0:40:03 | 0:40:11 | |
the end the game was settled after
controversy. Michael McIlorum's pass | 0:40:11 | 0:40:17 | |
string to Maurice Blair who was on
his knees beside him. And angry | 0:40:17 | 0:40:25 | |
Rovers coach Tim Sheens felt it was
a deliberate act targeting a player | 0:40:25 | 0:40:29 | |
to earn a penalty. The referee
disagreed and Alberta made no | 0:40:29 | 0:40:34 | |
mistake with the conversion to give
cattle and their first win of the | 0:40:34 | 0:40:36 | |
season to the relief of the home
fans and no doubt the player and | 0:40:36 | 0:40:40 | |
coach Steve McNamara. | 0:40:40 | 0:40:41 | |
fans and no doubt the player and
coach Steve McNamara. Wasn't a | 0:40:41 | 0:40:45 | |
classic game, was that clever or
against the spirit of the game? It's | 0:40:45 | 0:40:50 | |
just negative, I don't think it
should be in the rules. The rules | 0:40:50 | 0:40:56 | |
Digg page to get away but I think a
chilling negative. Might it creep | 0:40:56 | 0:41:04 | |
back in? We saw one in the other
game. I thought we had addressed it | 0:41:04 | 0:41:10 | |
last year when we said it would not
be accepted. I am sure he was not a | 0:41:10 | 0:41:15 | |
happy man after the weekend. And
quickly how big a relief to get the | 0:41:15 | 0:41:20 | |
win for Catalan? Especially at home,
they have made it a fortress for a | 0:41:20 | 0:41:24 | |
number of years so to get the win
and build momentum they will | 0:41:24 | 0:41:28 | |
definitely be happy. Relief all
round. You could sense it at the | 0:41:28 | 0:41:32 | |
end. Everyone is a winner in 2018
and how his things stand in the | 0:41:32 | 0:41:38 | |
table. | 0:41:38 | 0:41:39 | |
That's it for now, my thanks to
Gareth and look for joining us, join | 0:41:54 | 0:41:57 | |
us next week if you can but until
then for all of us, goodbye. | 0:41:57 | 0:42:03 |
