Here we go again, was great to be back, expectations sky high at kick off, come 5pm I’ve come back to earth a bit.
First game of the season is notoriously hard to call, neither team wants to lose and both happy in the end with a point.
A few positives today and a few negatives, positives were Dickie who was simply superb, back 3 settled down after a nervy start and looked fine, fullbacks blew hot and cold and midfield looked out of sorts, still not sure why Ball tries to break a players leg early doors,he draws refs attention to him, and as he is quite a basic player has to tread carefully.
What worries me more is upfront, Austin can only do 60 odd minutes and today Dykes was hopeless,we had nothing on the bench to help.
Good crowd and decent atmosphere, don’t think the new ticketing system went well, as hundreds still coming in 20 minutes after kick off.
