We're in dire need of a couple of props and a stand off

Delaney Moon Jjb Briscoe Ferres exit stage left do not pass go do not get a new contract.

I'm furious. Had enough of this sh#te against cas in the league. We genuinely look very very average this season. Jjb delaney ferres need to be replaced by younger more athletic forwards. And we are desperate for a really good couple of metre gaining props. Time to get cheque book out GH.

Our completion rate must be less than 50%

its not getting beat by this team its the manner every time

We're decimated at the moment both physically and mentally. We may struggle to get a team out next week.

A carnt spake. I know the old & the knackered are always in the firing line in terms of getting rid but there are plenty others who are highly rated but who have failed to produce the goods for almost as long as I can remember.
I don't see Cas troubling any of the big 3 from over the Pennines but I feel we're far closer to middle 8s than top 4.

This has been coming tbf the cracks were visible v Wire & tonight we didn't even have enough for our regular decent 15 minute spell.
We can debate agree/disagree until the cows come home but this squad lacks quality ,fresh ideas & more worryingly we look unfit imo.

Injurys, injuries, injuries....Sick of hearing about them. That 17 tonight had enough big game experience to at least make it competative. Out played and out coached by a team that have a plan and stick to it, regardless of there personnel..Prop hit-up right, prop hit -up right, mckeeken hit-up right, set play left with option to hit lead runner or fullback out the back, its not rocket science, its just a well coached team with very few stars but who all know there job. Conversley, we throw the ball around aimlessly, like its about to explode, with never a hint that theyr building to anything, hoping for one of our stars to do something special.

Cas missing first choice halfs, their fullback, and as a result of changes their centre two. This along with other big men missing. Yet our coach is the one with the injuries excuse.

who else?
im pretty sure that Ellis is their first choice half btw.

You were doing ok till you said the Cas players were poor.

Gale and Roberts first choice half backs now after Benny failed trial at full back. Last years leading try scorer Greg Eden been missing most of the season. Must admit I doubted Powells selection when he picked Foster in the centre but he got MOM and had Watkins in his back pocket. The pivots just aren't good enough for a team with ambition. Just watch Parcell as a neuteral and his distribution is 3rd rate and its destroying your attack.

At least Josh Warrington managed to salvage some pride for the city tonight.

Sounds like Watkins' season is done and Walker has cracked a bone in his knee and Peteru has done his other bicep. Parcel potentially out for a few weeks as well.
