We never had a chance of the top 8 anyway. If we achieve 10th we have majorly over-achieved. 11th is my prediction.

All players have off days, sometimes teams have them together. Don't forget this is pretty much the same squad that won three in a row. Let's get some perspective. We nearly beat Leeds (World Champs) and put 40 past them, and were a couple of mistakes away from beating Bradford which would have put us 10th. As it is, they need to move on, go to Catalans (knowing they have beat them already), and then do their best to retain focus. Wholesale changes could be more damaging.

Dropping one player for one game to give them a breather/kick up the jacksee may be in order though.

Why on earth do people think "nearly" beating Leeds was somehow a creditable performance??

They had lost 8 from 16 when we played them,more over they had lost fairly convincingly in 4 of their previous 5 games up to playing us.Indeed there only win in those 5 came against Bradford!!!Thats not forgetting they had circa 10 players backing up from a game 48 hours before.

That's not right, I've watched him quite a lot and he's not a great tackler at all - however neither is Wood.

I agree with this. I'd rather finish 11th and develop players for next season than finish 9th using "stopgap" players.

Don't disagree with your sentiment but dont forget the higher you finish the higher the prize money.
