Yes. You're all alone! For about a fortnight.

Nope, I think we will, hope I'm wrong but I think we're too light in the pack and with too many new combinations in the backs. Plus everyone else around us has strengthened as much if not better than us. On our day I think we could compete with anyone if it all gels....but how many days will we have?
But....I might reconsider this once I've seen us in serious action on Sunday, as the Hull game was a mismatch of preparation with them coming off a local derby...so we'll see.

Others/MINOTAUR.JPG Crude and slow Whino, your attack was no better than that of a clumsy child.:Others/MINOTAUR.JPG |
|
| I'm not throwing the towel in after 1 game, i still believe we can make the top 8 with the quality of players with have at our disposal within the squad.
Yes yesterday was a shocker and i do find myself constantly questioning some of Potters tactics and decisions (like dropping Phil Joseph even though he has been a stand out performer in pre-season)
It is time the forwards stood up to be counted though or we will be in for a long hard year...

| I went yesterday...
I thought you had plenty of chances in the first 10-15 minutes to get over the Catalan try line. You just needed to keep hold of the ball instead of either knocking on or rushing the ball. That's were mistakes came in!
Catalans are no mugs, they'll beat or at least give the "big-boys" a decent game this year. They looked very organised both in defence and attack.
It's the first game of the season, stick with it and you'll get your rewards. There's positives there I felt for you yesterday you just need to keep with the side instead of getting on there backs for example booing?
All the best

Do you truly believe this? That we have quality in our squad?
I honestly don't see any of the following as 'quality', in fact most of them I class as poor Super League players. The fact that we had to have a partnership of Walker and Crookes yesterday shows how poor our squad depth is.
Briggs
Crookes
Ainscough
Jeffries
Platt
Pryce
Sibbit
Sykes
Walker

What's that got to do with anything? Judge666 said we have quality in our squad, those players are in our squad.

Why? I didn't boo, but I did not clap them off either.
The team did not bother to perform yesterday, the fans have payed their money, they have every right to show their disapproval.
If you went to a concert (or opera - tt) and it was sh11te, you woudn't clap the band would you?
I think this blind enthusiam and acceptance of sub-mediocre performances, has helped get this club where it is. Its about time, the team and the board knew that it's not acceptable anymore.

| I thought the booing was pretty pathetic too. Catalans are a much better side than us and such a pasting should have been expected.
To use debaser's analogy the concert was crap but the band I went to see was made up of sub standard musicians in a number of positions. We're a bit like a band that had a great past but is now made up of session musicians who are filling the boots of the greats!
