00:00It's tough. On the back of last week, I reckon we played better this week and we come with better effort, we come with better physicality and that was always going to be the challenge for us.
00:13Just a few things didn't go our way.
00:15What was the difference today, did you feel?
00:22There were some big moments in the game that went against us which wasn't great.
00:27I thought in the first half we probably looked the better team and then that try just before half-time probably hurt us a little bit and broke our back.
00:36Then in the start of the second half we just got something wrong at marker.
00:41I'm extremely happy with the effort and the physicality and the line speed was excellent.
00:48Just got a couple of detailed things wrong when we get tired or just lose a little bit of concentration but that's just going to take a little bit of time, we've just got to keep persistent with it.
00:58Just give us your thoughts on your two yellow cards.
01:06I don't know what they're for.
01:09Especially the one on Fuss.
01:11I feel like we kicked down, I'm sure there was a knock on.
01:16Then three tackles later we got penalised for a strip which was a one-on-one strip.
01:22So that's twice we should have had the ball attack in their line.
01:25When we started the second half I feel like we were getting a bit of momentum.
01:30Then we go down to the other end of the field and we get a sinping and then two tries.
01:38There was a fair few fiery flashpoints as well wasn't there in the game.
01:42Did you feel that your players were a bit frustrated at some of the decisions?
01:46I think both teams were. I think the control of the game was lost at stages.
