Frayssinous angry with Dragons’ defence

Correspondent

Catalans Dragons coach Laurent Frayssinous was not pleased with the way his team defended at Hull KR on Sunday.

The Dragons led 20-4 in the first half of the game at the KC Lightstream Stadium, but ended up losing 50-20.

“We need to defend like a Super League side, not a French Championship side. But I did not see us conceding 50 points,” said Frayssinous after the game.

“With the new format, we cannot afford to defend like we did. We have to sort that out very quickly.

“Our possession in the first half was good and we applied some pressure on the Hull KR line.

“But we need to give credit to Rovers because they put us under a lot of pressure in the second half. They have some great players and they punished us.”
