| Quote dddooommm="dddooommm"Half Term Review: Grade B+
Notes: Poor start to the season at Sheffield after a very lackluster pre-season schedule. We've been vastly improved since that opening day defeat. Barring some bad injuries to some of our key play makers I don't think there is much to complain about (except the pitch). We are the best of the rest in this league as Fev and Toulouse are in a 2 horse race for the top spot.'"
I think that's a fair reflection.
I know it's a hopeless ask with us but, if only we can keep a fairly representative spine on the pitch, we'll do Ok. Best is yet to come? |

Grade C. Doing pretty much how I'd expect.

Grade C?!
Jesus, would feel sorry for any pupils if you were a teacher!
I’d go for B given the budget/size/depth of the squad compared to the likes of York and 9/12 is an excellent campaign to date. |

100% but I'd also say the budget/size/squad needs to be part of the review. We've been very fortunate with the free weekends and the timings of the loans as the squad is about 4 senior players short of a top championship squad. The loans have been excellent but I don't see why the squad is so light. Fev have 30+ and you can tell.
That said there is a (slim) chance we might reach the play offs with E. Kear, MDJ, Brough, Keyes. Wouldn't that be fun? |

No it's not. Brough/Keyes with Lilley coming on could be devastating. I'd try Kear in the left centre, or even at fullback as an attacking strike option. I don't thinks Oakes or Pick could complain whereas Brown has improved all year. We need something else in that left back row channel. |

what is the actual budget. Remember when Sawyer/Wood took over we were in special measures and RFL set our max player budget (iirc it was same level as bottom team in league). Seem to remember Sawyer saying budget had been increased slightly last year but haven't heard if it increased again this year. |

Good options to have. Agree Joe Brown does deserve his chance.
Anyone know why JK hasn't done the media this week?. |

Not sure where that has come from but it's wrong.
