00:00Lewis, how would you sum up that performance this afternoon?
00:06Disappointing, frustrating, probably quite similar to the last time out against Wigan and I think
00:16we were better in areas but our start's not good enough, I think there were too many errors,
00:21lack of desire in our defence and then just give yourself too much to do.
00:26As I said to the girls, there's areas where we do really have a good dig and we show how competitive we can be
00:35but just not consistently enough, I think there's new individuals with some great moments in the game,
00:40Nuts holding some up to the tri-line, Mel Howard with some of the ball steal and
00:48you know little bits like that and there's a change of game but only when you're in the game,
00:52not when you're chasing the game.
00:53How do you stop the errors? Is there a way of stopping errors that just come randomly during a game?
00:58I think there's got to be some individual accountability for some of them,
01:02they weren't errors that were challenging in good ball, there were errors coming out of yardage,
01:08just catches so it's got to be focused and I think that's got to be put a little bit on the individual
01:12a little bit and as a group I just think we've got to just start better and we've got to work
01:19that out together, that's something coaching staff and playing as a group, as a collective,
01:23got to work out how we're going to start a little bit better and what's going to get us ticking
01:26because obviously we missed out on the spot at Wembley because we lost to Wigan and we had an
01:31opportunity to bounce back from that a little bit today and we've just not taken the game by the
01:35score for the next so we've got to have them questions internally and ask why and we've had a lot
01:40of injuries and we've had a lot of chopping and changing but I just still don't think that's a big
01:44enough excuse to start the game how we did because how we started were about some real fine
01:49errors that you know could be avoided and then effort on the back of it.
