I haven't agreed with everything he's done this year, but surely he's earned our backing by leading a limping squad to within 80 minutes of being Champions - beating Wigan twice on the way.

Look back to earlier this season and there were plenty of disenting voices.'"
The game is littered with "great" coaches who won sod all, I'd prefer to have a lucky coach, if that is what he is, who wins trophies, than a great coach who is a nearly man. If we win next week, then that will be a great achievement. Am happy to resurrect my posts from earlier in the season where I have consistently backed Simmons.

| The point about graham is also valid. We are using 16 v 17 each week. Graham and TP and Roby make this possible. I would be suprised if this continues next year. With graham gone we will lose an 80 minute guywho now has regular ice on his back.
We will not have this next year but with lance in the team the back on the bench may no longer be deamed nessasary by royce. Not sure how we will line up yet but the triangle of lance gaskell and lomax would mean a back up back is not needed.

| The thing is we have an 80 minute hooker whereas every team interchanges hookers so usually we do play with the same amount of props and second rowers

| Quote Mugwump="Mugwump"Given that Simmons has battled through one of the worst injury crises in living memory steering a team full of kids to the Grand Final from outside the top two (not to mention losing his prized half to Union and his star stand-off to a season-long injury) perhaps it might be wise to - [iat least consider the possibility[/i that he knows what he's doing and his tactics are sound.'"
Don't feed me hope!

| Quote SaintsFan="SaintsFan"Well, if Lima ruined Lomax's leg, you might be glad Wheeler wasn't played because we may well need another halfback next week.
I don't want Pryce anywhere near our team. The LAST thing we want is to be completely undermined by a stomach bug. It's 48 hours post puking before a person is no longer contagious. He should stay in Bradford and watch the GF from the stands.
Our young guys should have the chance on Saturday. With the young guy who was ripping Wigan apart on Good Friday until a cynical play from Hoffman ruined his season, sitting on the bench in case he is needed.'"
The only question now is, did Wheeler make it through Saturday without picking up any injuries?

I've heard he's gone for the season with a splintered rectum.

Bad news. In the after match huddle Sia Soliola accidently squoze Gary Wheeler too hard and he imploded. His head was found in Runcorn this morning.

| I've never liked the whole concept of having a back on the bench at all, particularly not when they're half-fit and in no position to be able to contribute more than 20 minutes if needed anyway as we've done more than a few times, and we have plenty enough forwards who can play in the backs if needed making it even more pointless. But I'm more than happy to concede that Royce knows a thousand times more about the game and the players than I ever will and so must know what he's doing...
