Oh and I did expect more of Russell and O'Brien today... Dwyer is good with the ball but it pretty weak in defence which may explain his limited appearances in SL.

Pretty certain it was Ben Evans who stopped their try. Bridge looked lively with space at half back, GOB very quiet, and neither has a kicking game. Russell looked impressive and so too England. Asotasi should have torn it up today, but did bugger all. Penny looked very good indeed, solid defence and is still blisteringly quick. All in all, everything I expected out of today's game.happy with the zero, appalled by the crowd of 3002.

Currie who stopped there try and quick thinking sent penny on his hatrick

Just remind us who we were playing today??...... The fact I'm hearing and reading things like Penny and England played well, tells us we should take Bridge playing well at stand off with a huge pinch of salt.

Hey! There you go, the first with an excuse...

It's the Challenge Cup. No-one gives a flying toss about it until the Quarter Finals at least.

Where is the excuse by Dita? He was playing against Doncaster. Would be a different story if he played halfback and picked up 36 points against the likes of Leeds, Wigan or St Helens.

So you have championed for him to be played at HB, he has, and he scored 36 points. He did it against part time opposition.

If he does it against the creme de la creme of SL, then you may have a case for craving the attention you so desperately wish for.

Every chance that if we had of rested some, they'd be even less bothering to turn up.

No creme on your pie either.

I'm not after attention wire 111.
Just a successful team.
Like you and many others, I was unable to see us being competitive without some extreme action.

There is only two things we can do....One is spend, and morrisseyisawire already hinted that pride may hinder that route.
Or do something radical within our current playing stock...we exhausted all other means of combination at hb except for one inclusion.

All I want is my team to be the best....

I now have a real hope that we can be competing, it wasn't there before today.

Rubber Duckie.While your views are well respected on here it was in my opinion may i state rather foolhardy championing Bridge's cause regarding his performance at hb considering the oppostion.By all means applaud him for his performance but people will only eat humble pie if he does it against the top sides on a regular basis,that is if Smithy gives him game time at that position.

Well that's the custard.
TS has track record for not rewarding form.
