SIMON SMITH: Derby defeat was incredibly frustrating

To lose such a hard-fought game in that fashion in injury-time is very disappointing.

It looked like we’d nicked it when we broke out from our line and James Perrett showed them a clean pair of heels and touched down.

I thought we’d dealt with their kick-off and would then see the game out, but we gave away a penalty, albeit a very soft one, and they capitalised to take the spoils.

Without a doubt in my mind, conditions played a huge part in Saturday’s encounter.

It was a miserable afternoon which in turn led to a lot of handling errors anda very stop-start game, which really didn’t suit us at all.

We couldn’t get into any kind of full flow and that probably cost us in the end.
