Surely Wildie is a replacement for Higham when he is done at the end of the season. He’s a better 9 rather than 7.

Personally I enjoyed the game , both teams played very well, but Widnes seemed to want the win more.Ive heard all these half back theories,I’m a big Ryan B fan, but today his kicking was poor, not much yardage gained,obviously Riddy wasn’t fit.
For me McNally must stay at full back,I agree Riddy is coming to the end of his career, so is Mickey Higham,hopefully our 9s next season will be Hood and Wildie ,if Craven has signed try him with Ryan, and let Marsh go, no breaks, no runs , not a good games to tries ratio for a winger.
I think everyone will be gutted none more than Derek,but let’s move on,Widnes had some big lads in the pack, I like the lad Norman, the Adamsons have been good this season, but are they big enough?I have faith in JD and Derek,I do think some harsh decisions are needed if we want to move from top 5 contenders to realistic challengers for top spot.

OH Charlie, Charlie, Charlie .
Didn't see that one coming, Charlie didn't t know this one.

Sorry Cherry, I really got carried away here.You're right,Wildie will do just that. In't it funny how beer knocks yer daft? well it does in my case.

Good evening or morning, whichever it is over in the East,I did know it would be a hard close game, though I thought Leigh would win, however Widnes deserved to win so I have no qualms about the result.
As I said onwards and upwards now, our season isn’t over , we will learn from this game and regroup and come back.

Ian i said the same to you today,i said it would be a close game with a Leigh win.
I can now officially say that Cokey doesn't know.

Brierley let them off the hook with an ill judged and poorly executed kick through, early in the tackle count to gift them a seven tackle set. This was just after we’d gone 4-2 up and then forced a drop out the next set. Shortly afterwards he was falling for Craven’s step which led to the first try.

The last two games since the chequebook has been more prominent have been particularly poor. I hope that’s just coincidence. I don’t know if players are injured or not, but if Forsyth, Cox, Spencer, Brooks and A Thornley have been chucked out to the long grass in favour of some ‘names’ that we’ve signed then we really have learned nothing.

Halves were e.. to

We know how poor Owens is under the high ball yet, we repeatedly launched them either side of him !

Good post that Leythig, I agree with all of it. I think Forsyth was cup tied yesterday though. I have always said Brierley is not a good halfback, but we didn't have anybody else really.

Well Toby Adamson would be one of the first names I would be looking to sign up if we are looking for a mixture of PT & FT - for me he has been immense

And I like HRJ, will bite my tongue on Mr Brierley
