| Quote: Greg Florimos Boots "I think a lot of the negativitity is probably down to the realisation that we are further away this season than we were last season despite bringing a load of players in. Im still very confident that we will get 3rd or 4th but does it matter? Grix's interview had me thinking that it probably would not even be worth turning up last night, surely fans need to hear that going in to a game like last night you expect the players to be up for it and to raise their game playing one of the best in the division. He really did not give off that impression.
With regards the promotion race I had Fev as favs but the last games we have played I might just have Leigh edging it which I actually think would be a shame as Leigh will go up and have a complete rebuild and likely come back down where as I think Fev have the better chance of actually staying up. The thing that will worry Leigh though and was very much the case in the Bradford game as well and I think PH mentions it, Leigh totally dominated the game last night but only managed to win by 12 points, if Mcdonald picked up an injury or their pack has an off day they are really going to struggle to score points as they have very little flair and its all brute force at the moment. It is working though and they will have time to address those issues before they play in the final.'"
That's a weird point, how do you work that out?  |

How many quota players you got? How many of the ones that perform well will you be able to keep? Aren't most of your players on 1 year contracts? Fev have a pretty settled squad, Leigh don't have that benefit so in my opinion you will have more mercinaries just out to get the biggest pay check they can get without very little affiliation to Leigh.

If Fev get promoted, they will have to recruit heavily too in order to compete, hence they will become unsettled just the same. |

I reckon Fev will probably only need about 6 or 7 players to have a chance of not finishing last. I think at the moment they could compete with the lower half of SL as I suspect Leigh could but Leigh simply wont keep a lot of the players they have, well I guess they may do but its unlikely. |

To be fair Greg, I don't think either Leigh or Fev could compete in SL atm. Leigh will also keep the best of their overseas players who will have already settled in. Leigh are in a better position than Fev but, that doesn't mean we will be promoted. Also, we haven't really hit any kind of good form yet. BTW - We are interested in Blake Ferguson. Anyway, Best of luck for the Panthers for the rest of the season.  |

Derek , as you rightly say we haven’t hit any real form yet this season , but we still have the BEST attack in the League , when we do watch out .
As for Blake Ferguson , it’s a bit more than interested , but we shall see .I may see ya at the LSV next Friday for the Dews game .

Hi Ian, I hope we do sign him, and we also need a classy stand off (Playmaker/General) to guide us around the park, and create more chances. As for next Friday, I can't make it, but no doubt we will catch up soon mate. |

Derek , I’ve heard Lammy has 3 targets , all good players , Derek will supply him with the ammunition , at the moment I’m happy where we are , and when we hit form it will be worth watching .
I know you don’t rate Reynolds , but I think he will get more involved as the season progresses .

Yep and that would apply to every club, after that there's a lot of variables.
Internally whether the individual new recruits turn out to be the right choices, whether collectively they gel together as a unit, injuries and just shear luck and externally the strength or weakness of the closest rivals.
As Fax fans, in the unlikely miraculous event of us getting promoted, to survive we would need an entire new BoD, coach, team and fan base.
Other than those minor issues we,re all ready to go. 
PS: I may have exaggerated on needing a new coach.  |

You’ll have to go with Cokey.. Personally he should ask himself how Leigh compete in SL with 11 overseas players.

Pick the best of em, of which a number on here have said we have some SL standard players. Think we’re allowed 7 in SL should we be fortunate (or unfortunate some may say). Probably a few non overseas in the squad can compete as well, so we’d have a decent core to start with |
