I was at the game on Sunday, you just had to look at Hughes face after the game, Paul Sykes, Schofield, they were laughing there head's off, you cannot blame conditions on that, same for both teams, grass was long and field un even, but still a POOR performance,

Dewsbury were just doing basics on us, we missed lots of tackles through centre again and the Dews props were just doing the simple stuff and we had no answer, no on field captains to marshall the troops etc, no plan B, just felt like Deja Vu again for the team.

Having watched a fair bit of Championship rugby I'm not totally shocked we lost, though the margin in surprising. There are some very good teams / players here. The worst team is night and day difference to Skolars/Hemel/Oxford. I think a few will be surprised by some of our opponents. Some of our recruitment was good but some is worrying - the pack concerns me for the umpteenth consecutive year. Whilst being pro will get us over the line in a few games, especially as the season progresses, it's less help early on and I think that the line of thinking it was only games v pro teams that mattered will be wrong and we will lose to some part time teams.

Deeply worrying times for RL down south and not just at the Broncos.

You are probably a bit out of touch with the championship if you thought you would hammer Dewsbury at theirs. There is not much at all between top Championship clubs and lower SL clubs. The top players in this division who are part time are easily as good as some of the players in bottom end SL clubs.

It is certainly looking like Leigh and Bradford will run away with the league and leave about 6 teams fighting for 3rd and 4th place.

Keyes, Foran and Farrar will be targeted in defence. I don't see a way to have all 3 on the pitch at the same time, especially not 2 of them defending together. Waiting to see the highlights but I'd like to see Garside at left centre in place of Farrar who is shot as a physical presence and just shoots out of the line looking for intercepts instead of contact.

On the positive side, we do have a good squad and combinations will take time. Having Riley (injured) and Dollapi (late withdrawal?) on the bench would stiffen things up. Nor is defeat away at Dewsbury (an improving mid-table side) a disgrace. But 34-6 is.

They've got 10 days of looking in the mirror to get things sorted
Hopefully this is what was needed to get it into there heads what's coming. No excuse for missing tackles other than lack of application. You don't see Wigan missing many knowing Wane is waiting for them.

Grima needs to fire this lot up.

Grima looked like he was going to cry in the interview after!! what is up with Riley??? I really hope we are looking at brining some more bodies in

Again....why wait until March? Have you seen the interview?

He is out of his depth.....another class piece of recruitment by Hughes!

Yes and wasn't the first game of that era away to Dewsbury too. A 14-12 loss in the cup after we had given it the big I am
