| Quote: Sir Gregory Parsloe "I’ve lost count of how many yellow cards and suspensions we’ve had this year.
It’s critical we don’t get any v Saints. In particular Bentley needs to just take whatever stick he gets.
Not just to help keep the score down.
We need as many available, particularly forwards for the vital 4 games in 2 weeks in late April v hudds, Cas, Toulouse and HKR, where we need some wins.
In our weird fixture list, we then have only 2 games in May with only a 5 day gap between Salford and Wakey. This month could give a new coach chance to try and improve us a bit.
But we could be staring down the barrel by then.
From June We then have 6 in a row not at home. Wire, hudds, saints, hull, Toulouse away and Cas at magic. This is a tough run for any new coach.
We urgently need some upturn post Saints.'"
That’s why I would rest most of our very brittle and flogged pack v Saints. We are not getting anything but a hiding from this one, but can regroup with a week off and come again….
Games after Saints far more important

I get the point Shabba but we have a week off after Saints anyway and there is nobody to bring in. You can’t play 15 year olds against Walmsley and co.
This lot have to get off the line and bend their backs.

Yeah true. Could be the end of them!

Toulouse beat Saints remember, do I expect us to win? No. Is there a small possibility of us winning? Yes. We go out all guns blazing for the 2 points. Moral and confidence is clearly well down, a good performance against Saints can help to turn that around.

Yup. That’s the spirit. Positivity go’s a long way…!

| The problem is that Toulouse will give each match a good go. Leeds are currently beaten before they even enter the field, their heads are gone.

I'm increasingly worried Fusitua is crocked, and brought in as a panic buy because there were no props available. He seems to look hurt after every collision!

| I don't think he's crocked, I do think he's very much a confidence player. This has been privately suggested by a former SL and International coach in the past.
If we get a settled team, and start to improve our defensive performances so we are "in" games, then I think we will start to see a bit more of what he can do. It's hardly his fault he got knocked out by Currie and then picked up an innocuous knee injury.
We have far bigger problems than Dave.

Fair enough, which coach?
I'm not saying we don't have bigger problems, but I do worry we've used our last quote spot on him when we could have gone for an overseas prop.
There's been quite a few player movements in SL that we didn't take advantage of when we could. I think George Lawler or Joe Burgess would have been good value acquisitions. Still, hindsight is a wonderful thing!

Despite the dubious decision to sign a winger when a prop was urgently required, we need to be patient with Fusitu'a. Apparently only out for a couple of weeks so we might well see the best of him before long. He'll certainly benefit from a change to our masterful tactic of "give it to the big Tongan lad". Maybe "create space for the big Tongan lad" will work better. Worth remembering that Field at Wigan barely got on the pitch last year. Look at him now.
