Kings need 'that first win'

 

The Kings succumbed to a Sharks side 24-53 with the home team scoring seven tries to three, however, like most games for the Kings, there were some positives to take away.

 

Despite having only one log point, from a losing bonus point against the Bulls, coach Carlos Spencer was not too despondent.

 

"We still have a fair way to go, but we are showing good signs here and there.

 

"There are things that are letting us down and it's the same things every week we're speaking about and trying to rectify.

 

"I think once we get that first win, things will start coming together."

 

He felt Saturday's result could easily have gone the other way.

 

"We let ourselves down big time in the first half," Spencer said.

 

"The yellow card, which I thought was very soft, cost us 14 points and defensively we made some crucial errors.

 

"But the way they [the Kings] came back in the second half, I was really proud of them.

 

"I thought they showed some great character and played great rugby.

 

"If it wasn't for a couple of soft moments and probably not winning our lineouts, I thought the result could have been different."
