Care to share with us why the statements you profess to be "Fact" are indeed fact, not merely opinion? |

| Quote: Bully_Boxer "Indeed. Sykes is also prone to the odd brain fart too. I would keep Platt at FB because he did ok today and has looked good in the last few games. If we dropped a player after every big mistake we'd never have the same side each week!
One player who surely does need a rest is Deacon, he is adding very little to the side right now. His passing is poor, his general play kicking has been poor even his goal kicking has been inconsistent. But far more worryingly is the ease in which the opposition are running through him. His missed tackles have led directly to 4 tries that I can think of in the last two games. I'd promote Halley to the starting line up too to face Leeds.'"
i agree with what your saying about deacon he does need a rest his defence recently has been tragic, but who ould you replace him with cant really think of anyone, would you promote a youngster? personally i would like to see a number of youngsters promoted, they cannot do any worse than the current rabble. |

As I mentioned earlier, I'd move Menzies to 6 and put Jeffries at 7. However I stated that we'd probably need Solomona back if we were to switch a player from the back row. |

I think we should consider giving a bench spot to one of the younger guys this week though. What is the logic of picking a winger on the bench? |

yes but if they arent playing well enough then they dont deserve to be in the team, get them dropped. you cant just refuse to drop someone because it might hurt their feelings. it might give them the kick up the they need to get back into it. |

I'm on about youngster's. Look how long it's taken Brown, Aspinwall, Robinson and Wild to get over being thrown in at the deep end during their time in a struggling Wigan side. |

Yeah, I agree...some bloody consolation ![]()
We can choose which weekend to play Harlequins?
Other than that - I got nothing

ah right yeah i see where you are coming from, but i still feel you have to do something about these first team players not playing well enough, and the only way to do that is to drop em, and bring in some of the academy players. |

I'm quietly clinging onto the final hope that this is all part of McNamaras crazy plan to fool super league.
Plan is we play e all the way up to the Leeds game, hammer Leeds by 70, and win every game upto the grand final where we once again play Leeds. We're losing in the 79th minute, with 10 seconds to go. The ball comes to Menzies, who passed it to Platt, who finds a gap, has a brain fart and chucks the ball over his head - which then finds its way to Halley, who plays it inside to Sykes, who plays it back to Platt.. who SCORES!
But wait, in another brain fart, the video referee thinks Platt has knocked on when putting the ball on the line. 10 seconds later the TRY sign appears and once again we are the champions, destroying the hearts and minds of the Leeds site, and fans to which they never ever recover.
Wishful thinking, that'll probably never happen for a hundred years or so (at least with those players, else they'd be running around at a grand age of 120+), but it's nice to dream.
