Agreed although we did beat Newcastle, just!

Firstly i hope the person who needed medical treatment is ok that is never nice to see. As for the game Whitehaven were everything i hoped fax would be well organized and looked dangerous when moving the ball. Coming on to the ball at pace accurate crisp passing and running good lines. There halfbacks ran the show there forwards ran hard making plenty of meters after contact and to be honest everything they did with and without the ball they looked like a team. Where we looked like a bunch of individuals completely lost at times hoping for the season to come to a end anybody could have been mistaken for thinking they were in third spot. There number 13 was superb i would love to see a loose forward play like that for us. As for the rest of this season barring the top 2 and whitehaven the rest seem to be falling apart together. I just hope we can find a way to win next week get third spot but we need to find a injection of intensity from some were or our playoffs will be over before they have even got going. And the coach could start picking players in there best position that would help and cut the favoritism to his brother because he needs dropping.

Who can say if there is lack of ambition when no one knows what's going on!!!
There could well be, but there's no doubt there is a lack of information and that's what is so frustrating.
Communication is the bridge between any club and it's fan base and at the moment we ain't got one in place.

Well said. Heard that Harris has left already !?!? The club needs to step up. The weekly interviews with Grx are essential but there should be questions reserved for squad health/ injuries etc with him.

There is clearly a communications gap currently with the bod departures of snowflake and ceo. It feels we are back in a corner shop .

Harris is injured. Not gone anywhere. Should be back for the Batley game

Whilst I for one agree with some of what you have said it's not the full story by any means.
I can only speak for myself and others may see it completely differently but here goes.

The doom and gloom element is based on the state of the game as a whole as well as what's happening within the confines of our home town club.

Doom for anyone outside SL because for a fact they voted for a breakaway gaining direct full control over themselves and virtually indirect full control over everyone else.

No one else including the RFL and every other club has any meaning full say in what the future holds for the game, it's the sporting equivalent of a dictatorship.
The world of football soon saw what was happening when the so called elite clubs tried it on and it got quickly stamped on but not the world of rugby league when the SL clubs did it.

Gloom because everyone is in the dark and there's a common thread, no one knows what is going to happen to the wider game through lack of information and no on knows what is happening to our own club through lack of information.

As laudable as finishing third is if we Batley or even fourth is if we don't doesn't change anything from the above.

If by doom and gloom you mean as fans we should just stay quite when we think something at the club could be done better well that is not going to happen. As for the above post faxcar i couldn't of put it better myself good post.

Mp wrote is right your all doom and gloom on here.
The team have done well this season and the directors are trying there best.
Anyone who thinks they can do better get on the board and bring your cash along too.
Super league here we come

Some people are fine accepting mediocracy. That is fine thse people are entitled to their opinions too.

Watching players of barely amateur ability in front of 1100 fans compared to the 90s of 10x that with top super league standard players.....can see why im discontented...still we're only 75% back to Cawoods days-no need to panic yet...

/quote] Add to that the teams that have "over achieved" this year in Haven and batley and then a number of other teams and next year is going to be a really good division despite the cuts which are due to the failings of the people at the top table anyway.'"

I wish our players were as easily motivated, been fired up by a post that actually compliments them.
