MARK Cain was full of praise for his former York Wasps team-mates after they gave his Dewsbury Rams side a first half fright at Huntington Stadium yesterday.
York led the league leaders 17-16 after a fantastic first 40 minutes before succumbing to a Rams onslaught in the second half.
Dewsbury eventually cruised to a 56-17 victory but Cain, who came on as a second half substitute, believed the only difference between the sides was confidence.
"The lads from York played really well in the first half and frustrated us. If they had played like that in the second they would have pushed us pretty close," said the 24-year-old half-back.
"I think it's a confidence thing. If they had more self belief they would have given us more of a game. At the moment Dewsbury are full of confidence."
