Game has kinda gone how I expected.

First 15 minutes, we were definitely on the back foot and it definitely looked like a game that would have suited Mayenda, just with his pace and power. Would just have given us that little bit more physicality to hold the ball at times.

There are times when we press them that they look uncertain and I do think there is a ball in behind at times.

But it was always going to be cagey, they tend to play with a relatively slow tempo and wear teams down and then hit them in the second half. We have to maintain our concentration.

I do think Mayenda in particular could be a big sub here. You'd kill for a Mundle or Watson option.
 
Weathered the first 15 minutes and grew into the game after that. We’ve done well against probably the best side we’ve come up against so far.

Le Feè looks good but wasted out wide. I’d have Rigg off and move Le Feè into CM. Not a go at Rigg himself it just makes sense. Roberts can go off as well but that’s because he’s shite.
Def need le fee in the middle
 
Le Fée class with Jobe. Linking up beautifully.
Raises the question then, why the f..k does O'Nien keep choosing Roberts for a wide ball when back to Le Fée is on.
