I know I said I'd give it 10 games or so but the resolve has worn thin. Once again the problems which have blighted us for te last 18 months were evident again, How long can we go on listening to the same tired excuses week in week out. I'm sorry but the problem lies with once person who isn't getting the best out of the some of the parts he's working with.

I agree with you. Why can't we get over the tryline? Defence was good again but if Macca doesn't work on the attack we will really struggle this season.

What was the penalty count this evening?
And do you think maybe Huddersfield are a better side than you give them credit for?

It certainly wasn't good tonight.

No I don't.

No, I don't think that's true. Bradford's forwards dominated the game, just as they did against HKR. The problem is just that, we've a very dominant pack there's just nothing backing them up. Players 1-6 are average at best. If you only had 1 or 2 average players in the backline you might not notice as the other players may take up the slack. But when you've a halfback pair who couldn't create toast with a a slice of bread and grill, wingers who couldn't catch cold and a fullback who's mind wanders so far that it brings back souviners then that is a team in trouble

It's not all bad though, our homegrown winger is riding high in the SL try-scoring charts.

Oh.

Did he even play.

Ah right, well that clarifies things. Thanks for the two points anyway.

Yes.

For Wakefield

But it's not just a game of forwards is it. Don't get me wrong, I understand why you're disappointed; you lost at home to Huddersfield for the first time in 40 years. But your backline is a big problem for you IMO. And this Huddersfield side has tonked Catalans, pushed Saints hard, and now turned Bradford over. I'd suggest that deserves a sliver of credit.

Indeed. Halley has more tries himself this season than our entire team have managed thus far.

What a joke.

(ok, I realise I am not entitled to an opinion cos I was not at the game but I assume it is ok to deal with facts? )

Where have the backs gone

That game was dire, it was there for the taking and we couldn't do it, I'm sure the excuse will come out we've had a week off. Enough is enough I want to see a change this isn't this week or this season, it was here and has been for a good while, time for a clean sweep me thinks

Some might say that such facts make the man who made such a decision look like a, erm, banana.

But I couldn't possibly comment.

I am sure you can. You were at the game right?

(incidentally, I wonder where his fan club are tonight? )
