However, since those dark November and December days, we have added Hood,Emmitt, and the Saints lads to our Squad,making it a decent looking Squad, yeah we need a couple more bodies, but take Toronto and Toulouse out of the equation,and the next maybe 8 teams are all on a similar footing.We could benefit from the misfortune of Widnes , but we have to play them 3 times this season.
I forecast a Bulls win on the Prediction Comp, but after looking at both teams 17 players, I really expected a Leigh win.We didn’t score in the second half and got caned about 9 -2 on the penalty count, you can’t score with no ball.
Next week will be the acid test ,with no DRs available, could be a blessing to lose to Sheff.'"
Quite Ian. If we were done 9 - 2 on the penalty count in the 2nd half,then something is just baffling here. We coasted to a 30 - 0 lead last week then the penalties came in abundance and the game went sour(and TBH our discipline has been good so far this season). If we have suddenly just become a terrible indiscipline team all of a sudden,then i'm not condoning or defending it,but i'm scratching mi yed as to why. I'm sure some of the pens are justified,but if there were 20 odd in the game today, summats not reet.
