First person when posting about a death. I as any decent person should have been, was gutted to hear that Rob had finally lost his fight - though it will happen to us all, we hope for later rather than sooner.

He gave up the ghost on the 2nd of June, nearly a fortnight before Leeds surrendered to an abject FC team albeit away from home. Where was the respect then?

Going along with you, I think, should we win the "arm-wrestle" we win comfortably and thereby make amends.

Derek has already said that Leigh will rightly pay their respects to a great player, but thereafter it is gloves off!

I was on corporate tickets with my dad, brother and brother-in-law for the 40th anniversary of Munich game . Nat laid a wreath before kick off. In the 1958 FA Cup Final he'd scored a brace. The rest of the country, for once, was behind what was left of The Babes - but it wasn't for the 13 bob a week that Nat played to win - it was to do his best for his club!

Rob Burrows RIP.

I think we have 2 excellent halfbacks, but in today's game they have to stick to a game plan, unfortunately. How do you think Shaun Edwards scored most of his tries? Following a big forward who drew in the defenders and slipped a pass to Edwards. Let's hope Lammy slips that into our game plan cos they'll score a pan full. Something lacking at the moment with only 5 tries in 4 games.
And Chamberlain isn't a halfback. He's a Championship player with a good defence.

Having lost a son, I assure you that the result of a rugby game means bugger all.

Two separate issues entirely.

No they're not. I'll end this conversation with you now cos you haven't got a clue.

It was a baffling team selection. Appreciate the plan was probably to have McNamara play at 6, but out of the 18 players in the squad, I can think of 4 options I'd pick ahead of Chamberlain at 6. McIntosh a 1 and Moylan at 6. McIntosh at 2 and Hanley at 6, or Dwyer or Ipape staight in at 6.

Then the switch to Davis at 9 (Did something happen to Ipape in the warm up?) was also a poor call. We had a scrum in their half and two poor balls off the floor completely killed the set, and the tone was set. It made us predictable, and sadly was compounded by the fact that Lam and to a lesser extent Moylan too often just shifted the ball sideways without engaging any defenders, often throwing Leutele and Charnley under the bus.

That starting 13 would be lucky to reach nil if they start against Wigan,
