one of the truer words durham. with the bulking up of the pack i can see 5/6 leaving with nowhere for them to play through the wisdom of the rfl agood squad of 24/25 as i believe leeds went with at beginning of last season.grix no 6 behind that pack if all the names play well.

Well you seem very confident about this,so I for one won't be taking you up on the bet.

If Lunt does move on,then the hooking situation becomes a big problem for the coaching staff to wrestle with for next season imo.I could expand on why that was (imo),but I'll leave it at that for now.

Grix is good enough to be 6 if the rest of the team do their job

As for Lunt not playing for us again, I won't comment on him playing for us again or not. But the only reason he wouldn't be playing for us is if we get a good fee for him. Otherwise he'd be at Leeds now.

Regarding some players not getting game time with our bigger pack, let's see who's on the treatment table after a month into the season...

knock grix? youve tried this one before on me...even using some one elses quotes!!! got an apology off you that time if i remember

is grix your long lost son or something? i also state the positives of grix but you dont seem to want to know about those do you.

ill state it again where i lie with grix, he is our best player under the high ball and always gives 100%, hes is also a good player to have for his utility skills and for cover. nothing wrong with stating where i feel the giants can improve as a team

i dont feel he is good enough to play half back and i also dont feel he is that good in defence either. im not the only one who thinks this but hey ho lets just always pick out my comments.

on lunt, we shall see. ive stated ill be happy if he returns, if not then it wont be a surprise because theres enough to suggest he might not play for us again yet....yet again im not the only one who thinks this.

i dont rate the retro shirt and also dont think its worth the money..id rather pay for the new official one thanks, is this ok with you?

me happy?? if you look at other posts i make... you will see i am happy yes, fielden and kopzchak subjects for example

would be great if you had an opinion on signings and the team etc instead of just commenting on my things and going against anyone who dares say something against grix

is your hgsa report in the examiner yet?? if any of the other write ups are anything to go by they prob fell asleep reading it.

That would mean that the coaching staff were doing their job correctly,which of course they should be.

Which they clearly werent for a depressingly large part of last season

The article in the Examiner about Lunt in the Knights squad and how he 'wants to focus on doing well for them for now' did read a bit ominously to me tbh.

Re - thread title - reminds me of the meatloaf song that two out of three ain't bad.....

certainly gets credit for getting it in the examiner.

let's all practice if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing Mick

For what it's worth, Chris Roberts has been in Scotland for a couple of weeks [covering matches], hence the disjointed Examiner Rugby coverage.

you going to go and edit ivors posts aswell then??
