The wheels on the bus go round and round !

Its time we give the opportunity to Greenwood, Richards, Thompson and Sav in raising there game, if we don,t they will be going the same way as Ashurst and Dixon.

It doesn't help that Brown uses him totally wrong. The amount of times Sia drives it up through the middle like some cannon-fodder prop is so frustrating. He should be charging onto clever balls at the less congested fringes of the ruck area to rip holes in the opposition defence.

Savelio aside, the others are just bog-standard forwards. They'll give it their all, but will never be standout players. Savelio has that something extra, although not without some faults in his game (which hopefully we can iron out)

Thompson is getting enough rugby and is coming along nicely. Richards isn't a secondrow.

We need to replace Sia as he's one of our top players. We went down that road of not replacing quality with quality from 2007 to 2013 and still not recovered now.

Isn't Vea the replacement for Sia?

I hope not.

No news on Manu either so our over croweded Backrow is soon to be depleated. Maybe the Backrow is our new halfback/centre situation where we only play with one.

I don't mind Vea as a replacement for Sia as long as we bring in some real quality in another position (preferably stand off).

If we are losing Manu as well it means we have to bring another 2nd row in or it means we going with just a very lightweight Backrow in flash, Wilkin, greenwood and Vea.

I think stand off and a quality Backrow is is a must. I also think we need other positions but those two look vital IMO.

Ben Te'o, Atelea Vea, Jarrod Mullen, Adam Milner in
Anthony Laffranchi, Sia Soliola, Willie Manu , Lance Hohaia out

That'll do me

And are getting Liam Hood from Hunslet

Too many rumours about Lunt for him not to be available though talk of enquiries by hull Kr to replace hodgson, he'd be great interchanging with Roby....
