On Friday against Leeds , am i correct in saying we possibly had our best 17 available (Barring our 2 crocked 2nd rowers Bailey/Anderson). For the 1st time this season we had Cashmere , Boyle , Godwin , Ratchford , Holdsworth , Smith etc all in the same team. Is Leeds really the best place to go , with possibly our best squad for the 1st time?? My concerns are what Steve Simms said after the game "we need to play for 80 mins" ffs thats not rocket science to work out!! I deffo think this is a fitness issue with the squad , closely followed by confidence. I do feel most of our squad could play in other super league teams hence should be able to play together with us.
For the record , I used to play rugby league for the college i attended after playing for the footie team. I went to their circuit training and ached like mad for the rest of the week. We were also given specific instructions on working in sets of 3 when attacking and defending. We got battered for the 1st 4 games , got better and eventually finished joint 2nd in the league and to the semis of the cup ( I finished college after that season so i dont know what happened after icon_sad.gif ).
The point im making is everyone at the club need to stick together. The players do have a big responsibility to do the business. At the same time the coaching/ fitness levels need to be well maintained too. I have always had my doubts about SM since day one ( didnt he slag us off on sky a good few years back icon_mad.gif ) All the other teams look miles fitter than us . Any views icon_confused.gif:

i think your missing the fact tha jewitt wasnt in there, although hes not yet hit his straps i think his work rate around the middle was missed and he would be ideal to compliment big ray!!! i think he needs to step up his aggression amd offloads!!!!

We just need to give them more time to gel, 8 new players coming into a team worse than the one they were previously playing at isn't good. Lets just hope we start winning games and team spirit gets up.

i had a interesting read at Ratchford's twitter the other day and there was a comment to ash Gibson regarding sum one coming to work pre game eating chips also that person telling Broughton his diet is terrible, now i can guess who that person is.

if the club can not in force proper instructions on what each player needs then how are they ever going to get them up to full fitness.

some one on another post commented that all other teams look bigger , stronger, faster and fitter than we do.

due to the nature of team shirts now being tight fit you see the definition in players you compare some of are players looks like some are not in the gym enough.
