With us being the better side these days, we are licking our lips at inflicting more misery on Wire in the coming derby. I expect a fairly straight forward win.[/quote:1d72a5qw][b:1d72a5qw]Wire 44 - 6 Widnes[/b:1d72a5qw]

I'll only echo what has been said here really: we were poor overall with some good individual performances. We created way too many problems for ourselves with penalties and knock-ons all over the field but we did well to keep Catalan out under so much continued pressure. Again, we look very limp in attack.
Although we deserved the loss (by a bigger margin than Catalan managed) Child was poor. Some of our "high shots" never were, he allowed Catalan to lay on and niggle at the play the ball where he penalised us and we got penalised for putting one of them over the horizontal (by half a degree...) whereas they did worse to Rhys towards the end and we get nothing. No excuses for the loss, just made for a frustrating watch.

I don't think there is a place for Rhys in the team nor does he deserve one on his last season's performance.
6 tries (1 less than the hardly prolific Gidley) and joint 2nd in errors (33) joint 3rd in missed tackles ( 12%), just 4 assists.
Just don't get the "love in" on here with him.
No thanks. |

| Quote: The All New Chester Wire "Stop this nonsense about people giving us a run for the play offs. We came top of the ladder last year and we have replaced Cox and Bailey with Cooper and Crosby, Sandow (brilliant for six weeks) with Brown, Savelio for no one really (or no one who played anyway). We'll be top 4 no problem.
Ratchford is our full back; Evans, Atkins, King are our centres; Lineham, Russell, Penny are our wingers - same set as last year really and we were top scorers.'"
So you don't think we will miss Sandow's 25 try assists? Or Currie's 17 tries?
I admire your optimism. |

| Quote: easyWire "Would it really do any harm to put Gidley at the back in his favoured position? He would be a useful reader and communicator a la Brett Hodgson. I'm not convinced he can offer that much in attack from HB this year.
Would like to see Brown partner Patton (who's positional kicking is excellent BTW) and see Ratchford get a settled run at centre in place of Evans. Thought Ratch did okay on the occasions he played centre in 2012/13 when we were blessed with a good back line and wide play from Briers.'"
I would agree with this but was amazed that Gidley was 2nd in our try assists rating for last season with 16. Context Sandow 25. |

I'm not saying you are wrong I don't recall it FB not as a spell. I definitely wouldn't play Russell there and was looking at options whilst Ratchford is out, we are short in the halves with Brown out and if Johnson is unfit. |
