Sam Wood should of come in at centre for Connor, Brierley for Grix, Johnson for Eorl and Ollie Roberts starting instead of Wardle, Leeming back into side at 9 and Hinchcliffe to 13. Too many no shows at Widnes for my liking!! Change at the helm long overdue but not gonna happen

So get rid of all the experience.....
Remind me how well that worked out at the start of the season......

Yup silly me the experience obviously got us to the lofty heights of 2nd from bottom, lets not change a thing cos we flying. I give up

Not at all if you have seen Eorl after a short turnaround he's struggled, Grix for Brierley makes sense to me as he should have played Sunday and Grix didn't do enough to keep his place and Connor needs a rest and we have enough forwards to play what always used to be our best left hand side combination of Wardle and Murphy.

Experience didn't work last Sunday did it ??

Thing is with Grix whether you like it or not you are always starting with a disadvantage as he will every game gift 1 try away right on his own try line. Did against St Helens ( got overlooked as team played well) and Widnes.

Hate to single players out as I do think he gives 100%, just dont think hes good enough to be a full back for a super league side looking to win something and push on.

With a mere 14 posts to your name you can be excused for not realising what you've just done.

Assuming you can read this and haven't already been banned for blasphemy, let me say that I largely agree with you.

Good luck

It isnt very long ago that PA was being criticised for playing Brearley at full back! As for Grix, he is our No. 1 full back, the full back who has been there organising our defence when we were the best defence in superleague (two seasons). He made fewer mistakes than Murphy,Brough Hinchcliffe and Wardle against Widnes
and was playing with an injured bicep sustained at Newcastle. Some "knowledgeable" people on here should view the team and individual performances without their personal prejudicies and back the coach s judgement on players .
,

This says it all doesn't it? An injured player is chosen over an exciting attacking alternative who would thrive on the fast pitch at Widnes.

How many times did he have the ball in hand compared to the 4 you've named?

Are you seriously trying to tell us he was responsible for us having the best defence?

Even if you are, that's the past.

Was only a matter of time til one of the grix lovers mentioned his 'organisation skills'

He is not good enough, simple as that. He never has been, but what makes it more frustrating is the fact that we have a better player on a long term contract sat in the stands!

brierley signed to be our long term full back and still learning, apparently best way to learn now is to sit in the stands and watch grix.

anyway grix will be going by the end of this season so the debate on him will finally end

then again we still talk about broughton...

So he will be the next scape goat getting in the way of Simpson?

Bloody hell, Grix starts to play again and he's been critized or complained about (not just on these forums) more than our other players this season already.

All the games we've lost without him and suddenly he's our disadvantage.

He was injured in the first game of the season when the game was still close. He has only played the last two games since then. One we won and one we lost. Inbetween this we have hardly won a game. How is Grix to blame for this. I have to serious think we have the most uneducated fans of any club. I am not saying he played well last week but he was no worse than half a dozen others. We are two thirds of the way through the season and Grix has had one poor game. For gods sake try understanding were the actual problem is and why the Giants are in the position they are.
