| Think some of you are really missing the point. Under normal circumstances of course you wouldn’t change a winning team, you’d go all out to win. However there is nothing normal about this year.
Winning the championship matters but being ready for SL matters far more! Powell needs to test ALL his players, especially the younger ones. He knows Pitts and Ashurst are top class, he also knows they have a limited shelf life.
So personally I don’t give a toss if we lose the odd game, this season will only be a footnote if we have any real ambition. Like it or not if we are admitted to SL next years, then next years team and performances matter far more imho.
I grant you that it’s counter intuitive but as you’re most likely to gain promotion on IMG points then things are not normal. I look at it this way, do you want glory now or later. We’ve just had a taster, and I want more. So I don’t see any harm in a bit of experimentation for the rest of the season. I’m not talking wholesale change, but I’d like to see one or two other players get a fair few more run outs this year.
I certainly want to see more of Bain, Vagana, Smith and Booth to name but four We need to think ahead imho.

Absolutely the type of game I’ve been waiting for ,although we could have won comfortably with bombed tries here and there ,it set up a thrilling finish. Free car park round the corner , great stadium ,vociferous fans ,great day out I’d say Willzay

Spot on there Ketty. Good to feel some jeopardy in a game but finally pull through. Home advantage will be crucial in the end of season playoffs for that 0.25 points.

It's better on a Sunday afternoon with the sun shining than those dark winter nights of yesteryear !

| It's a lot nicer than Naughton Park that's for sure and nowadays you have a much better chance of a win than back in the 80s and early 90s when it was bit of graveyard for away teams.

One of the greatest club sides I've seen were Widnes back then.
