We know this current side lacks top quality across the park, it was always going to be difficult to suddenly turn the poor recruitment situation around overnight.
What we do have though is some experience with quality in key areas mixed in with players who maybe ain’t world beaters but will put a shift in for the team.
Fash for me has his faults and discipline the biggest of those but when he controls that he’s a useful player and does what is needed. Chamberlain again another who’s unspectacular but will do a job as proved last night even with a little turn of pace to skin the defender.
Add in the youth like Moy who is not quite ready but with Rapana/Hardaker and a coach in Cartwright I’m sure that will come as shown with Barron & Martin.
Also thought for an old carthorse that can’t train according to some……. Wattsy put in a shift last night.
What Cartwright has instilled in this 2025 squad in terms of steel, heart, grit and the never say die attitude is commendable.
Whilst we rode our luck last night who can honestly say they’ d have expected us to be 3-1-1 in the league and knocked Wigan out the cup? We are still a way off being were we want to be but we are competitive and not the old soft towel throwers of the past half a dozen seasons.
Think last night was about seeing how we handled getting up for that game after 2 titanic battles and think even though it wasn’t pretty the club answered that positively.
