Salford Red Devils back-rower Jansin Turgut returned toย Hull for the first time since joining the Red Devils and he says the side reallyย pulled together to complete aย memorable comeback victory at KCOM Craven Park.
On the victoryโฆ
It was a really good team performance. There were some outstanding efforts from the lads particularly in defence and then George Griffin did a full eighty minutes. I think we knew that going into half-time โ even though we were behind โ we knew weโd gifted them points by not completing our sets and giving them easy field position and then, ultimately, they scored on the back of that. We knew if we went out after half-time and got into a battle with them and a โset-for-setโ mentality then we would pull through the other side with the win.
On the momentum of the gameโฆ
I felt there was a point in the first half in which their middles had fatigued, and we had the chance to capitalise, but we didnโt take that opportunity and took our foot off the gas a little bit and enabled them to get back in it which saw them take the lead. In the second-half, we did have that momentum change which we definitely felt, and we tried to make that the turning point with a couple of repeat sets on their line before we scored.
On the final few minutesโฆ
I was watching on the side-line for the final few minutes, but I was nervous for the lads but Iโm always confident that weโve got enough experience and talent throughout the squad to be able to see the game out and make the right decisions.
On the upcoming weekโฆ
Itโs up to Ian Watson but weโll recover and do some video analysis on this weekendโs game and ahead of next weekends. Weโll make sure our training is short and sharp this week focusing on ourselves and weโll be aiming up going into the St Helens game on Thursday evening.
