Had to work late today - it's always hectic at ours before bank holidays.

Drip, drip, drip........
Its all gonna end in tears, rotten.

I can't comment on the game cos I wasn't there so I'm not going to try to defend the coach or players. But does anyone else find it frustrating that we can score the points. They've gone away and scored 36 - how many teams score that many and lose? Not many. We scored that in Toulouse and won. Something isn't clicking within the team...

after the disastrous off field events of 2010;

no pre-season £(x)
Early NRC exit £(x)
Sponsor going bust £(x)
Challenge cup debacle £(x)

We had to trim the outgoings and trim the squad (no secret) so out goes, Branno, Maloney, Royston, Tamghart, Wrench (retired) and in come cheaper less effective players SO WHY IS EVERYONE SO SUPRISED??

Mid table will be a good season and the rebuild for 2013 can begin....

Interesting that these 3 players always get mentioned as the core of last years team but what about larder and wrench? Unsung experienced players who are surely missed also

Yep.

All efforts must now be on avoiding the drop. Yes - it's a far cry from 2010 but I'm expecting a tough fight this year to keep our heads. It's going to be a tough 5 months.

The squad we have should still be doing better look at Batley they are miles ahead of us

Rubbish!! Firstly pretty much the starting XIII is not far away from the GF team and you nay need look at the Batley squad and you still think were mid table at best?? Name me 6 sides with a better squad in this division! I can think of maybe 2 or at a push 3

Am watching Bullocks on pi in the sky. They play to big their forwards and worries me since we cant defend champ forwards. They make mistakes in close defence but doubt we will get anywhere near line. I hate to say it so soon , but we need new blood off the field. MC, fall on the sword.

moved up the table again.

I think your sadly mistaken!! 80% of this side has a GF medal! As a coach in this league wouldn't you want a chance to work with those players! Rhino would want more than 2 of our squad I'm sure!! Cmon get a grip man

ok then...who? which players?

face it were mediocre!

We're not mediocre, we're massively underperforming. And that's down to the coach. Batley are doing the opposite, playing above their means.

but you are qouting this on current form not ability. if karl was at fax im sure he would love the squad we have and not need many new faces as im sure they would perform for him and we would be where batley are and be unbeaten. come on bod sort it before the boat sinks again after years of hard work
