All in all, the makings of a great season ahead

I don't see how Hughes being sat down for 2 games can be classed as a bad thing.

I'd be delighted, but only if it was for longer.

It was a 50/50 game anyway and we weren't as bad as everyone is crying about. Massive overreactions from a hell of a lot of fans. Next week we will have Mulhern back to strengthen the pack, Daz Clark should be back and potentially Magoulias making a debut. We weren't blown off the park by any means and we are 6 games in so i'm not gonna sit and cry about it. Yeah there are a few players not on form but there is plenty of time for us to hit form and click. It's not panic stations yet.

Overreaction by Wire fans? Never.

These are the same people who in March 2009 would have been calling for taxis to take King and Monaghan to the airport, who would have wanted Briers shipping out to Barrow and believed that Smith wouldn't be able to turn the attitude around. They'd have called for Gatcliffe to go now that the move to the new ground was completed. Some of the sly ones would have praised the investment by Moran but wondered whether he really knew how to run a rugby club...

Can't we just ring the RFL and tell them they missed a squirrel grip by Hughes? That seems to be lengthy ban. May get 8 games out of that.

It’s alright lads at least we have the whizzy rascal.

Think Butler might cop a ban for you aswell…led with the elbow and certainly didn’t miss Crowther about 5 minutes into the 2nd half…fair play to Crowther who didn’t try milking anything out of it…more trying to show it didn’t hurt! Not sure whether you’d see that as a good thing or bad like with Hughes?

On the flip side we’ll be missing Johnstone through concussion protocol and have 4 other wing options out injured…Escares loan is up but Jowitt is back and he’s had a brilliant start to the season…Fifita could have a nervous wait on the disciplinary though as one of his late tackles didn’t look good…he would be a major miss!

Can you be as bad again next week? We can certainly be as good and our major strength this season has been our fitness and finishing games strong…whole new back room team has see unreal results on that score along with a great team spirit…looking forward to it!

I admire your Dunkirk spirit, but anyone who can't see we have issues is deluded. There are players in that team who are no longer fit for purpose, and others who look very much square pegs and round holes. Accepting mediocrity is a sure way of perpetuating it.

One observation I'll make, everyone was going silly about that video that was released from his first meeting with the squad, happy that he was saying the right things (I'm sure price had a similar one on his first day).

One of the things highlighted was not panicking and falling apart (like what happened in the kr play off game) and he's mentioned it again after all 3 losses now, we're playing bad and now we're panicking/collapsing even more.its got worse not better.

Agreed, we seem to throw any game plan out of the window, as soon as we go behind. Screams of a lack of leadership on the field.
