Well, after being confident at half time, I ended up biting my nails all through the second half as updates by text came through from my mate Lee down at Cougar Park. A win's a win and it's very welcome but what on earth is going on with the second half crumble we seem to have developed? It better be sorted for the upcoming York game. Come on COUGARS!!!

what was that all about cougars couldn't catch a cold in 2nd half. why do we play down the slope 1st half, what happened to last seasons defence. Gloucester here we come.

Was 16-0 when I left work, looked like we were cruising then, ah well...its a win lol!

A win yes , a stunning beat anyone first half but what on earth is going on with this 2nd half

rubbish every match.... ?

Maybe it is the lack of leadership on the field...... Maybe the opposition 'suss out '

Our non changing game plan after the first 40 ......The predictable same old kick off every time ....

The same things that have been happening all season , the only thing diff' about tonight

is the fact we came away with the points to lift us from the bottom of the heap.

To give away so many points in the 2nd half is not on , but why waste my breath repeating

the same old comment .

Well done on getting a win but Thats it , nothing else except the second half was a disgrace.

Also , why was Ben Stead dropped from this weeks team ? He has no Injury.

Well - great first half looked a class team - lucky we were in front so far because if not we would have lost tonight,

Something needs to be done?

We carnt keep letting the second half go like this

York next week - who will be up for it - so come on cougars let's see some changes,



Agree with burley cougar why wasn't Ben picked tonight?

It's as if somebody were listening...

Just checking, we did win, didnt we?

My first game in a long time.

First half, we were very good. But for the life of me, i cant understand why we didnt go for the kill. Worky were there for the taking, they were giving away penalties for fun. It was the chance to keep the pressure on and go for tries.



Second half Worky changed there game plan. It took us a little while to relies and get a grip of them.

From looking at that team, things can only get better.

We did build pressure in the first half. The combination of two pointers and tries just kept them on the back foot all the time.



They introduced a D/R halfback from Widnes in the second half who raised their momentum. As a result of the increased tempo we gave away penalties but for me the two knock-ons that led to tries nearly sunk us. That we lost such a lead is poor but that we were at least able to hang on under extreme pressure is a good sign.



A lot of the talk on their board is about D/R signings to keep them up - whatever happened to the "Cumbrian conveyor belt"

Sides are starting to get desperate and it just isn't good for Rugby League. We played our academy lads agains Leigh yet Leigh played three very good young lads from Wigan. With D/R you just don't know which team you are going to face.

Scoring tries and maybe having one of theres in the sin bin could have built more pressure









Have agree with your last sentence.







Clubs dont need to have a conveyor belt. They can just rely on D/R.

You cannot blame clubs for taking this option.

I dont agree with it. Its a big step backwards by clubs outside S/L.
