dont think dropping crabtree or kopczak for johnson would be any good.. both have been going ok so far, crabtree still does a mountain of work in his stints

cudjoe is being asked to do too much in defence, he is currently 2nd for the most tackles so far close behind top tackler hughes.

robinson is being rested more for personal reasons rather than it being injuries. the contracts that were given to grix and robbo though can be questioned i agree

just build on the leeds game Brough to keep his gob shut or sooner or latter he get himself sent off .

One of our major problems at the moment is Brough's inability to not bite when being wound up, it's a huge flaw in his game which then becomes a weakness in our team and other coaches know this and are exploiting it !

If Danny can learn to ignore it and concentrate on the game more he will be more suited to controlling thr game like we know he can.

We need that Fiaumu side step back to give us some variety.

He steps to the left...........

Don't have a problem with them. I'd like to think of it as changing than dropping. It's the beauty of having a good solid squad. First game enthusasim might just freshen up the losing mood.

Whoever Anderson chooses to play I'm sure will put In a good effort. We've improved every game so I'm hoping that will drive us to a win.

would like to see grix back in conner moved to the halfs as he likes to be involved ellis to hooker to interchange with wood leave lunt and robbo to play at oldham or wherever

he did freshen it up last week though bringing wood and lawrence in.

only 3 games gone no need to shake it up too much

Maybe so, whoever he picks it'll be interesting to see if we can get a win.

The only change needed is when we actually start bloody playing


Play like you want to win from kick off
Not 20 minutes in and 18-0 down


We are as good as anyone in the league but not when we only play for 50-60 mins

We haven't played for 80 mins since 2013 a far as I can remember. I'm tired of the same old we get in the Examiner - they tend to use the word 'hopefully' a lot. Need to get the mind in gear from second 1. I remember that first lick and chase from the off v Leeds in the semi at Odsal. That set the tone for the whole game. I'll be looking at the defensive line speed from the off on Friday as it always seems to give a good indication of how we will go.

Agree about the line speed from kick off and in general. Throwing 3 or even 4 into the tackle from the off and crunching a few bodies can set the tone from the start.
I'd like to see it happen more regularly.

poor discipline (ferres) and poor tackling (mullally) didnt help on that 18-0 front!

i liked the way kaufusi used to go flying in like that but he decided to back to oz after the way we treated him

How did we treat him Brearley?
