Well wakey messing my plans up although....Phil Clarke had them to lose all but one!

Then somebody wants to get Anderson onto the same page.

My biggest fear is Brierley becomes the new Broughton and seeks pastures new due to lack of opportunities I know its early doors before someone shoots me down, but if Brierley had had nightmare after nightmare then id agree grix should come straight back in but hes done nowt wrong , unless you call backing up breaks and being solid under the high ball as wrong? We need to be looking to the future as it looks like the super 8s are now forlorn hope.

Luke Robinson's column in the Examiner at the weekend clearly pointed to the fact that Brierley had been dropped for the Saints game and it wasn't because he was ill.

Correct,he was fit and available for Sunday as well,he did have a bout of tonsillitis,although it didn't have any affect on selection.

masterclass from queensland today in how to win a close game..... wish we could learn to do this! didnt hinchcliffe play with cooper cronk for long enough?
