Have you ever even beat us at the HJ?

No didn't think so..see you in a few weeks for your annual beating.

Have you ever typed something and when posted it, wished you hadn't? I will save this post and message you in a few weeks.

James Roby is a top player no question!!
If Leon Pryce was a race horse he would of been shot a long time ago..dont make me laugh..

No doubt you will. The statement he responded to was as bad however. Wire are better this season and could do the double, but it's not something we've not done and there is precious little reality in his statement.

Leon Pryce has had one severe injury this season. I think your fading memory of his abilities is clouding your judgement there. The last time we saw him for more than 4 minutes (September last year?) he was still an absolutely superb player.

We were missing Pryce and Perry. However, we had one raw recruit in Gaskell on the pitch I believe, to partner a disinterested Eastmond. There were a number of factors in our early season games at home (and not just the ones we lost) which were all part and parcel of getting used to playing at Widnes, no KC and a new coach. We're through all that now. What team we have out when we meet you is anyone's guess. However, we won't have Gardner, Clough or Pryce. They will be definite absentees.

Well, if you heard that one of your players had a fractured eye socket, what would be [iyour[/i immediate reaction?

The fracture is a small one, the doctor has said he can play on it and that it would take the same degree of impact to break his eye socket as fractured it in the first place. But he has facial swelling, impaired vision and numbness at present and that all has to clear before he is fit to play. If that doesn't clear by Sunday then he doesn't play.

Incidentally, it was the England coach who dropped him from the England team as soon as the injury was confirmed.

Worst facial injury ever..most convenient facial injury ever. I think some of our saints friends just got the injury and him being a hatchet faced bugger mixed up. Like I said previously, we dicked them with him. It's getting some of the others back that is worrying. Eastmond has been the one that has killed us the previous two years. I'm glad his a'rse has gone and he doesn't want to play.

I bet Joseph Merrick wished the miracle workers who have treated Roby were about in his day.

My reaction would have been 'he played almost the whole match without any Obvious discomfort and it only looked like a black eye.... I will be surprised if he misses more than 1 or 2 games'.

And I was right.

We've got a game against big club to worry about before we play your lot anyway.
Once that's out of the way we can concentrate on retaining our unbeaten record (Cup semi excepted) at the Halliwell Jones, Roby or no Roby.
Who knows who will or will not be available for the Wolfs by then.
See youse!
