He looked knackered and unfit against Saints and was dropped for a youngster in Holroyd, isn't that what this forum has been crying out for the club to do?

To say we'd have won the game with Walker is simply untrue. Wigan had another couple of gears to go if necessary. Also to compliment McLelland for taking on the line is ridiculous. He couldn't trick a dog in the park.

Myler or Walker at full back would certainly improve the attack, but while they are both missing I'm not sure who we have got available who can improve that part of our game. Newman is a great threat ball in hand, but I have not seen a great passing game from him, although I have not seen him as much as some on here.
Handley is doing well bringing the ball back but he doesn't possess a great passing game.
On another note the foot in touch from Briscoe should never have been an issue. He appeared to have enough room to score without going near touch. He is still finding his way back after a long term injury and I thought he did ok with his Carrys but he wouldn't have been happy with himself if the try was chalked off.

Sorry to remind you.

Ryan left side, Briscoe right.

Devastating, or should that be devastated...

The "Transition" has been taking longer than it should have. I think Sinny said when he came it would be a 3 year job.As a rule of thumb I would give the Aussie imports a years grace to bed in,what with a new culture and environment so I definitely think younger squad members need to be cut some slack. Oledzki,Mclelland,Holroyd etc cannot flourish behind a toothless pack. We won't see the best of these until we acquire a pair of mongrel props with the possible addition of a top winger/ utility back.Where are the forwards in the tackle busts league table?Since there us no relagation we should be looking to give Sam Walters and others match time experience. We seem t be struggling with the new format of super League,so I would like to see a younger athletic squad. Maybe Covid 19's second wave will kill off the season and give the management some more breathing space to fix things up. Perhaps a new Edgar Curtis would be beneficial.

Lol yes it is.. worked out well anyway

Wouldnt be surprised to see manfredi cop a ban for trying to tackle briscoe with his elbow to his head, Callum has only played two games so shouldn’t be under fire atm, anyone know why Holroyd didn’t come back on? Thought he looked lean and well drilled opposed to a couple of our other players

Yes, but then hopefully used as a trusted member of the 17 throughout the game. 'We didn't think it was right to put him back in later with the game balanced as it was'. Well, just leave cuthbertson to chuck the ball away on play 1 instead at 16-10.

Did you see Holroyds stats aswell for the limited time he was on? excellent really, and do not back up that lack of faith from Agar.

He's an 18 year old lad who hasn't played a game for best part of a year. He needs to get his body used to the contact again. He'll probably get a bit more time if he plays next week.
