Good post.

It's a cliché but one game at a time. Bradford are up next, Odsal isn't a great place to play RL IMO, lets see what we can come up with against them.

Starship and the 'I am the Warrior' at half time, are the worst songs for us ever in the memory of man!!!

To be fair, though, the Dragons are poop this season.

Even we beat them.

Only because they had 12 men



They were roasting you upto the sending off I believe.

Wigan were very good last night but Catalans were awful.
That was the worst Cats display I've ever seen.
Has anyone seen the Walters' interview on tv? He looks devastated, they will have to up their performance next week v Salford to have any chance of a win.
Why though do Catalans play four of their first five fixtures away from home?
Surely it must be at their request re the Brutus rebuilding programme.

I do not understand PJ's views, that we have been battered, the Wires match quite close the others we have monstered everybody.

Our forwards are running hard and fast with no sidesteps, best we have seen for a few seasons.

Hansen got rocked against Wire and picked up a minor shoulder injury at some point too. O'Loughlin was knocked out. Mossop has injured his ribs.

All I'm saying is that these games have taken something out of the side. We don't have a huge pack - they're playing much bigger than they are. At some point I fear that's going to catch up with us because they're going all out every game.

I think I know what P J means. We are playing a very physical game in defence. The effort is immense and the question is can we keep it up for a full season?

IMO our defence has been the foundation for our victories. We have punished the other teams including Wire (who compared to the others gave as good as they got) but he players walk off the pitch looking far more shattered than last season IMO.



Very true and it's great to watch but I think P J was asking can we keep it up?

I would like to think we can because of the way MM, Wane and Bitcom are looking after the players after the match and also because MM will rotate the squad.

The lack of size may be a problem, but, Maguire when he arrived said that he liked the look of the frames of the players and he could put some size on them.

What is good at the moment is the mobility of the forwards, and that should be an even bigger advantage when the pitches become firmer.

i too have noticed this , but defence is the hardest part of the game , if we are dominating the other team , i would expect our lads to be tired , its called putting a shift in , something we havent been doing for a few years

leave it all out on the pitch

i think alot of the praise should go to mark bicton . he is doing a fantastic job on the conditioning. We know its a marathon not a sprint. IMO the staff are well aware of this and are doing everything to keep the squad fit and well. We have deffo become more profesional.
