Not sure how many will make the trip north (respect to those who do), but this will tell us a fair bit about where we are heading in terms of the shield.
We lost up there in March with them having 4 DR Widnes players in the side and playing on a quagmire.....a loss that had one poster somewhat spookily predictingbut the reality is we will either be whipping boys in the middle 8 come September, or one of the stronger sides in the bottom 8 and neither scenario creates excitement for me or the home support who voted with their feet 2 weeks ago'"

Theres only 10 more points up for grabs, so no we are well safe of the relegation battle.

Just watched the highlights and the last four tries conceded are really quite embarrassing. Definitely one to forget.

So were the first two. Doesn't leave many.

I said I expected this from a team that wants to go straight back up to super league, when I thought we would be taking a near super league standard team down to a part time division. For the first 30 minutes of the season this is what we looked like, since then I have been utterly disappointed and bemused by the incompetence of the team. This result is among the worst. Being in this shield competition is bad enough and the way we are going to fail in it shows us what kind of club we are.
