Interesting point.

Agree a blowout because of a brain fart doesn't help anybody but the players have to be protected. A 'swap' is interesting. I'd also suggest a ban for the next pre season game as there needs to be a tangible consequence. All pie in the sky mind as it will never happen.

This has been my biggest concern about the squad. Not enough grunt and go forward in there.

You look at the front rows of saints and Warrington and Catalans for example and we are getting smashed simple as.

We certainly seem to be lacking size up front and impact players off the bench which is a big concern. I saw Merrin at game and he's not big either.

Only time will tell tho.

We'll need a ferocious attitude, that's for sure. Maintaining it for the duration of a bloated season's a big ask though. That said, Wigan did ok last time and the nearest they had to wrecking balls were Flower and Clubb.
