We are determined to put things right and this is a great start.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h4>Panic<\/h4>\n<p>Quins boss Rob Powell admitted the result was a bitter pill to swallow, particularly coming seven days after their 82-6 reverse to Warrington.<\/p>\n<p>The hosts moved clear of Hull with three tries in the space of seven second-half minutes, with Luke Dorn, Luke Gale and Chad Randall all touching down.<\/p>\n<p>Powell said: &#8220;We need to ask just how many times do we have to win a game? We had it won and then threw it away and that is just not acceptable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have to be able to put games to bed and that is something we need to learn as a side.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Panic set in at times at the end and we started conceding penalties and that really cost us. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have to learn to be a lot smarter as we controlled the game for spells and deserved more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!--lingo_region--><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/feef2be6skybet_logo.png\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.skybet.com\/skybet?offer=124&#038;aff=1581\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click Here for Your Free Bet<\/a>\t<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/feef2be6skybet_logo.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>View original post here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.skysports.com\/rugbyleague\/match_reaction\/0,19936,11070_3343385,00.html\" title=\"Agar - We needed that\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Agar &#8211; We needed that<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Agar: wants consistency We need to ask just how many times do we have to win a game?
