Solid performance for a 1st game of the season, especially given we only had one pre season hit out too. Defensively very strong again and continuing on from last year. Our discipline was awful though and with the ball I thought we were pretty average throughout.
We've got alot to work on with the ball and these type of games just highlight how key Coote is to our dynamic. We look a completely different side without him and only really have Lomax creating anything. Welsby looked lost at times and Fages whilst solid doesn't really offer anything more than that.
We'll improve as the season goes on though, so to win by 23 points against a decent team with two players missing and a further two going off early in the 2nd half is a good result.
