Quote: Alan "We were short on props actually, after Vai Vai's season-ending injury left us with only five in the squad. Personally, I think it's a clever ploy to divert the referees' attention away from Jamie Acton!

Five props ! we wish

Rise like Lions after slumber In unvanquishable number-- Shake your chains to earth like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you-- Ye are many -- they are few.' Percy Bysshe Shelley - 'The Mask of Anarchy' ' ITS OVER' - Roy Orbison:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76569.png



Quote: Alan "Fourth may rapidly be beyond you. Leigh and Halifax are both in form. Granted, Leigh have some very difficult fixtures coming up, but should they win those, they should go above you. Your only chance looks like Toulouse or Featherstone having a bad run, and neither seems to be likely to do that.'"



Well Toulouse blew up towards the end of last season didn't they?

Probably after we took their unbeaten home record off them - although I'm happy to be corrected on that one.

From a selfish (Leigh) point of view, I would love Toronto, Toulouse and Featherstone all to have a bad run - then things would get really interesting!! icon_wink.gif

Toulouse season rests very much on keeping thier half Ford fit, they are a different side when he doesn’t play...I think Rovers will also have a dip in form at some time due to being part time and Injuries. Toronto are a real mixed bag. Leigh however are starting to look like the real deal, they are a Super League in everything but name...it’s going to be a 5 horse race!

Toulouse I think will have learnt from last year, but for me am hoping Toronto do a Toulouse 2017 and run out of steam at the back end of the season, with them it will be interesting to see how the players adapt to the long spell away from home. Agree that the French need to keep players fit though but against us they looked strong.
London are light, we knew that at the start of the season, keeping players fit was the key, unfortunately that’s not happening at mo with some key players out or carrying knocks.
Not having a dig at Leigh, but you do have that extra half mil to play with which should put you in a decent position. Toronto!! Playing by the salary cap? Hard to believe but hey, london are reliant on DH wether we like it or not hence the light squad.
Toulouse Catalan million pound game anyone?

Totally agree with you on that. However, it would appear that we didn't spend it all wisely, and are lucky to have an opportunity to claw our way back into the race. Even now, we can ill afford more than a couple of slip-ups - still a tall order, with visits to London, Featherstone, Toulouse and Toronto to come, plus the 'Summer Bash' with Toronto. Hopefully, we changed our coach in the nick of time (and hopefully don't change this one!) and we can win most of those games, to stir things up a bit, between the top 6/7 teams!
