Newcastle just couldn't cover the loss of their 3 best players, Ponga, Best and Gagai.
(Like we know when our best are not available ...... )

For those looking for answers this is a pretty strong indication that the quality of your players is critical. When a team has a few of their best missing and look all of a sudden quite ordinary. Happens to most teams other than the true top squads - have even seen it at the Panthers this year.
Problem for us is we don’t have many of the quality players to begin with so when we lose our better players to suspension or injury, then we got nothing!
