| Quote lfcnige="lfcnige"If he is our best winger we are in real trouble...the guy did not want to play. At one point they were abot to play the ball and he was strolling back to his line playing with another ball...that is one ofthe reasonsi dont want him back. He "would not" tackle Yere, if he had tried i would not of minded but he seemed to just let him run past him the whole game...never mind his catching abaility, which is one of the most important parts of Rugby and he cant do it. He has been a waste of a great potential talent'"
the 'attempted' tackle on yere was appalling but there were many worse players than worrincy who IS without a doubt our best winger.

I wouldn't have him back, he still can't catch and he didn't attempt to tackle Menzie once.
Although his pass to Scott Turner for our 4th try was sublime

| We can't take this season out of context, it's been hugely competitive and we've managed to win the NRC and we've improved our position in the table despite there being so many tough teams. And also we have been RAVAGED by injuries all season, so I appreciate there is disappointment with certain areas but overall I think we've done very well considering everything that happened in the off season.
The two big areas that need looking at next year have to be our defensive line speed and our attacking style (moves and running lines) which have both been fairly poor overall this year.
We need to bring in some new playmakers, bring in some competitiveness. Ideally an out an out half back, another 9 and a player who can fit both roles like Beswick for example. I do like Thacks and he is blooming useful but I feel like we're wasting a half back spot with him and that he'd be more suited to 13 where he can roam around as he pleases.
6 - Handforth
7 - New signing
9 - New signing (Ideally a live wire number 9) and Ashall (Rotating)
13 - Thacks
14 - New signing (Halfback/Hooker)
That would give us the variety of playmakers and competition we need and have lacked this season.
The future is bright!

| Overall a mediocre season. Northern rail cup was a good one but still that's the only game really that we played well from start to finish.
I don't actually believe we are lacking creativity. Personally I think it's all down to the coaching. I think if we still had Branighan he would be the exact replica of Handforth. When Calland was in charge I think he concentrated on attack 75% of the time and sort of let the defence suffer. Now if we brought Branighan back he would be a little bit dull compared to what he was back then (by no means was he a fantastic creative stand-off).
So we know what we are going to get with Harrisons coaching - a little dull but aggressive and sometimes entertaining unlike with Calland which was frustrating but very exciting.
Now i'm not slagging Harrison off purely because I believe we do need to improve our defence and in patches I think it has improved slightly but I think the attack really has to step it up a gear next year.
What I think people need to improve next season is;
Running lines & running at the gaps (not the man) learn how to play a little bit more ''off the cuff'' when its needed and just generally improve basic skills.
We couldn't keep hold of the ball today and that let us down, along with plenty of other things.
Aizue, Gannon and Hesketh need to be replaced.
And if anyone says ''Well Morrison will fill one of the gaps''... What happens we get another season long injury and we are down to the bare bones like we have ended up being this season?
Penky certainly needs replacing
Another centre wouldn't go a miss
A half back also.

| Yesterday was woeful but had been coming, Keighley game we only just got home, and have looked like that for weeks.
Eagles played well yesterday and we were probably out coached but Handforth has to go for me. He takes the speed out of moves that pass to the runner behind is a waste of time and he dare n't attack the line as he's just too slow.
We need a number of players in next year and I'm not sure about Rettie, he's strong but a winger, probably better in 2nd row.
On Worrincy, he may have not tackled Yere but the 4th try he was 3 v 1 so what support was he getting.
