The topic is about an end of an era, which i think is quite simply an over reaction to a defeat. My post simply gives my opinion of how the game would have been won if we'd have had a fit pack.
We'd have won the ruck and had Monster come on as impact prop to smash holes in them. Pryce and Eastmond would have had a platform to play off and we'd have taken more advantage of the errors hudds made.'"
Which to be honest is a fair point. |

But we didn't. And to be honest, even with Cayless and Fas fit, we wouldn't have won that match because all the rest was missing for most of the game. We were clueless in attack for the majority and extremely predictable to watch when we did go forward. So even acknowledging the hypothetical, we still wouldn't have done it because there is too much else missing at present. |

There's nothing wrong with the team that one or two front rowers wouldn't fix.
1. Lomax
2. Gardner
3. Gidley
4. Wheeler
5. Foster
6. Pryce
7. Eastmond
8. Graham
9. Roby/Moore
10 Good prop
11. Puletua
12. Clough
13. Wilkin
14. Roby/Moore
15. Wellens
16. Ashurst
17. Maurie
If you can't win trophies with that line up you might as well give up.

Lomax  Mr Dropsies at fullback?
Are we not using the expensive import Sia Soliola then? He's not that bad.
Lets face it we need to spend big and spend NRL. We need a new fullback, a winger (To replace Gardner NOT Meli), 2 props and a big backrower or a centre depending on where Soliola plays.
Our shopping list is as big as Wigan's. |

what did I tell you guys months ago about Gardner. He ponses around looking pretty and does not do the hard graft as it showed in the World Cup the guy was a joke. Now he is getting found out. Lets face it a walking turd would look a decent wing man next to Gidley!

Wellens is a fine full back and doesnt need replacing
Meli needs replacing not Gardner
Other points I agree with.

| Quote: Saddened! "Beaten today and thoroughly beaten in every element of the game. Not by Leeds, but by Huddersfield.
The lineup today is a glimpse of our future, no Long, no direction and so few yard making forwards (We've got one). I'm sure we'll still be one of the stronger sides in the competition as we'll still have a solid 17, but we're lacking in key positions and areas now (No pace, no kicking game, no forward dominance). I think we may well have seen the last of regular trips to major finals.
Hopefully this will bring some passion back to KR. And for me Super League is as wide open as it could possibly be. I think Leeds v Giants at OT, with Leeds sneaking it, but next season you could literally toss 8 or so sides into a a hat and draw out the winners.'"
Team in decline pal. To old. No speed. Cant play when its dry. Told everyone this for years. |

There is massive over reaction going on here, we lost a game to the form team in the league when half of our pack is out injured. We could do with another prop for next year but thats about it.
