If you couldn't see any commitment or passion today we were watching different games.

Go play in a rl team with no halfbacks and a lot of players strapped up and see how you get on.

I have done. Wire didn't get out of second gear. Having no half backs does not stop you having some aggression. Creating tries yes, not a problem we didn't create much, I can live with that. But today was like a training match. We kept catching the ball standing still and conceded 5 tries again.

Lets see how our effort gets us next week against a FIRED UP Wigan.

There were a half dozen players today who could stand up and say "I tried". Bateman, Kear, Platt and Foster were the ones I'd single out for praise.

I appreciate that we had a number of late withdrawals which left us without a rudder. However the team needed to show a great deal more heart and intelligence than they did.

Many times today the ball was passed to a forward who was stood still and was quickly tackled by Wire's excellent defence. How hard is it to have our impact players RUNNING ONTO THE BALL?

It's about time the management realised there are some really good rugby players in the pennine league who could easily hold their own against most of the Super League, nevermind the NRL!

Either that's a wind up or a monumental delusion
