One player who I don't think has been mentioned in this thread and contributed to today's defeat,albeit by being unavailable, is Westwood. He is not quite deadwood yet, but it's clear his powers are on the wane and his indiscipline is becoming a liability.
I can't make my mind up whether he is worth a starting spot anymore.

With the poor depth of our pack, Westwood will always start for me.
I'd even play him at prop before Asotasi (who has just made the Bunnies team prop of the decade)! And England.

Joel Monaghan has been dreadful this season and it's hard to imagine him getting any better next season. The club needs to make the big decision and release him.

To yesterdays team, how much better would we have been with........
Sandow.
Lineham.
Gidley
Super Ben
Grix
Matty Russell
Rhys E.
Ben E

And to think we are losing two of our best defenders next year in Myler & Bridge ...OMG. Joel in the centre ? He can be a turnstile in defence.

Bear in mind Sandow will be in the line and he cannot defend. Most missed tackles in the NRL.

I'm hoping that Brian McDermott isn't aware of this. Seeing as he, along with most other top SL coaches, regularly pops by here to pick up coaching tips and player analysis from our undoubted experts we really don't want to feed him any useful information.

Lol I think Sandows missed tackle stats are very much in the public domain!

It's a fact that pretty much everyone involved in Rugby league be them a pro, amateur, a wire fan, opposition fan or Internet know all, is of the opinion we have to rebuild our squad. .....

Why is that?? we have the same owner the same coach. ....It isn't a key board coach that has allowed the quality to drop....

I don't understand the pop at fans on a forum explaining our very obvious frailties and our rank poor performers.

I personally think Smith has lost his way.

If Cullen was in charge we'd all be imploding at the fact this was our easiest route to Wembley. ....ever. ....and we failed. .....

I'm still loving annoyed at the whole state of affairs.

Apparently if you discuss Tony smith selections ,your not fans just keyboard coaches !! Sorry for having an opinion

I'm of the opinion that Smith should stay, recruitment for next season looks good. However Joel should NOT be captain next season (I'm not convinced a winger ever should be) and can we stop going for charge downs please!
