Drinkwater is crap most games....unless he has a fantastic kicking game, he is useless. Folk have slated Reynolds, but for some bizarre reason Josh get's away with it....

Mines a pint... 'Hi-Ho Silver Lining' Headingley 05th October 2014.:1392.gif

Agree totally, they wanted it and knew it would set down a marker.
For some reason a lot of our focus seems to be on The Catalan game, This was the match we needed to show up in and play well as it was against (what was) the worst team in SL, we massively underperformed from coaching team to players- worst showing for a very very long time.

Best team won. Our kicking game was dire as were our tackling and handling.

I guess that's an interpretation. Or is he being asked to do too much in defence and attack? Needs a good partner and Hampshire is not it.

May as well have had a set of traffic cones playing on our right edge for all the defending they did.

He's as much a halfback as Cyril Smith was to Hang Gliding.

too much defence ha ha he only makes about 8 tackles a game and on attack he plays for 5 mins every 20 and that's only if we go down our left channel,not sure about Reynolds but at least he gets involved

I,m afraid ----very afraid. The win over Pies was enjoyable, but we are certs for the qualifiers. I can't see this lot of "journeyman" pros beating any SL opposition or even HKR, London, Toulouse and possibly even Fev. Don't think too many of squad would hang around for Championship??? icon_sad.gif

I don't think Derek would hang around either , in his programme notes for the Wigan game , he stated he has no appetite for the Championship.

If the stats are up to date; Drinkwater 15.2 tackles per game average, Ben Reynolds 24.6. In comparison top of the league Cas; Luke Gale 10.8, Ben Roberts 20.3.

Quite interesting that Hull KR are on the 2017 team stats menu. They won't let em go... icon_hearteyes.gif

WARRINGTON BASED WESTLEYTHER "GET SOME DUMPLIN'S IN YA LOBBY":simpsons/006.jpg



Totally baffled why you wouldn't have had Reynolds on there last night he's been a revelation in the last few games, we looked clueless at times ,and I still don't understand why you would let Riddy Go and then drop Reynolds. I also cannot understand why Widnes are allowed to have that pitch its just crazy when a little ball dink ends up bouncing 14 feet in the air over our winger and full back and then they score. I don't understand why no one at the RFL mention it, it must be awful for players not used to it ,both to know what the ball is going to do and what damage it does to the players ,its about time the RL top brass made them get rid of that pitch then we are all on a level playing field. And to the coach play Reynolds he your only scrum half worth putting on the pitch,you must know that ,if not your blind. icon_sad.gif

I knew the win against Wigan would give everyone false hope now we calling for coaches heads people need get a grip I said before the Wigan game that's the only one we have a chance of winning that's the worse Wigan team I have ever seen. We had no chance of getting out of bottom four I just hope we holding something back for the middle 8s. Lets all get behind the club instead of calling them they need our support more than ever yet the small minded individuals are slating them

Well I've heard of blaming the ref, but we now blame the pitch. What next , the turnstile operator

Quote: fetchit "Well I've heard of blaming the ref, but we now blame the pitch. What next , the turnstile operator'"

That is because the pitch is not a normal rugby league surface played on by all clubs,no blame on the pitch for how we played last night we were e and Widnes beat us fair and square ,but Widnes have the advantage of knowing how the pitch works which has always given them an unfair advantage over any team that plays them there,and the damage to players is there for all to see,one match I saw the other week there were more bandages on knees than I saw in the Mummy Film.
Surely even you can see that how the ball runs and bounces on that pitch is not normal and makes the game at times like a school playground where you boot the ball and no idea where it will end up. The pitch should be removed and replaced with grass.
