| Hutchison and Cunningham to miss out if I was picking the team.
Aren't we only allowed to pick 5 loan players? If so, one out of Walne (x2), Ricky Bailey, Cunningham, Mason or Dagger would have to miss out.

Hutchinson has played all year so there's no way he'll miss out

Dagger
Bailey
Dawson
Owens
Bergal
Reynolds
Mortimer
Walne
Hood
Walne
Gregson
Larroyer
Blagbrough
Higham
Bailey
Richards
Mason
Maybe Dagger to centre, Owens to FB. Only way Hutchison gets in for me is if Higham is not available, or he plays 13 and Larroyer plays centre.

| I'm looking forward to seeing how the team performs on Sunday.
Ok, so we've lost some 'star' names, this past week, and we will miss some of them (HH comes readily to mind)
Yet, I have to admit to being surprised at the way SL teams (however desperate they are) have swarmed around, competing to sign what have proved to be fairly average Championship players, this season. As I've said, Hansen has been class, Hall has shown touches of class at times, as has Mata'utia (when he's not been suspended) but the rest of them have tended to be 'grafters'. How many line breaks have come from our much vaunted back row, how many tackles have been missed, by our 'star' players, and how many times have we dropped the ball. None of these failings have been the hallmarks of 'star' players - especially those from SL and the NRL!
Give me a team of players, who try to the limit of their ability, and I'll be happy. Here's hoping that's what we witness on Sunday.

| Craig Hall MOM tonight first thing he said in his interview after the match was to thank everyone at Leigh for the season and wish them the best which I thought was a nice touch

| Hall was nowhere near MOM, he scored two tries, one a kick and chase. That was it, he didn’t see the ball in the second half. There were players on both sides who gave much better performances.

Tickle for me. Credit to Hall for his comments. Good lad.

Agree with this. Yes, there were issues from the coach, but this group of players has let the club down also, yet when their performances get a club in trouble people start talking about their welfare!
Lots of people talking about how great Craig Hall is now, after his Hull KR debut, but think back to after Halifax away, people would've carried him to Hull on their backs if an offer had come in. Same can be said for Ben Crooks and Bodene Thompson.

Also, Jordan Thompson has seemed to fade, as the season has gone on - like I say, he's been a 'grafter' and all teams need a couple of them, but a lot of our team seemed to fit that description.
Also with Mata'utia, he has shown class, but has anybody else noticed, how he has 'retired' to the wing, after about 60 minutes in most games? He'll need to display better staying power in SL, where the intensity tends to be much greater.
Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed watching some of these guys play, but have tended to be disappointed with the overall efforts of some of our (probably) better paid players.

Alan, it was a very poor under performing team. A New Zealand warrior here for the wage, I bet he punches above his weight at Wire now as the others will do. That for me was down to the coaching staff to sort,all should be held responsible for situation they find themselves in now.
Cunningham,Purtill and Anderson have all failed, they should follow the same path as DB. Thats business not sport.

|
| After watching Craig Hall for a lot of his career he’s one of those players who has an outstanding game and you think we’ve got some player here and then the next game you wonder how he’s managed to get in team he’s that bad
