Agree. Going to be luck involved with Newman too….

Fortunately we have decent cover in all these positions.

Perhaps , but that’s a large chunk of talent to be missing to start a season ffs!

Sezar will get a ban I reckon. 2 games. Not as innocent as some are making out, yes Coote slips but Sezar jumps and swing’s somewhat, intent there.

You are allowed to swing your arm to make a tackle, there was absolute nothing Sezer could have done, if that’s a two match ban it’s ridiculous.

How can he intend to hit him in the head, how would he know he’s going to slip?

We have a large squad .Plenty of cover at prop and second row.Centre is a bit more tricky but we still have good options.

Who are these good centre options?
Fwiw think we’ll struggle first few games. But 9 faith we’ll come good later into season…..

With the early injuries we have I can see a slow start coming

The injury news keeps getting worse I'm told Fusitu'a is being sent for a scan on his knee after the HKR friendly

Martin Olpherts Edwards Fitisua maybe even Handley.

Another poor season on the cards. Out of all the young signings from lower league sides, only Ruan looks half decent and he can’t defend. Warrington will pump us first game.

Jesus, like reading Facebook on here.

I'm sure the current coach with a weaker squad got us to the GF last year by some miracle.

That’s the spirit!

Jeez

Not sure why you have mentioned the young players these are for the future not now.Smith has already stated this.You have already written this season off before its started.
