Quote: alegend "Grix at half back laugh out loud he is the main reason why are half backs are not clicking ,he as got no speed he is putting kicks in on the second and third tackles, makes us go to the right all the time,think it's time he was out of the team and give Max a go ,every team in the S L as a fullback with speed ,we always seem to be a season behind the way other teams are competing'"
You are being a bit disingenuous towards Wakefield there.
IF it was a level playing field and all clubs spent the same on their players, your comments could possibly valid.
However, like it or not, Trinity are the smallest club in SL (in terms of income, no sugar daddy etc) and to be anywhere near the top 8 is a massive over achievement.
Grix has been excellent this season and although he's started to look a bit jaded in the last couple of games, it's our half backs and hooker that have been lacking.
All that possession on Monday, against Wigan and yet, we couldn't break their line.
Yes, there have been some dumb plays and giving penalties away on tackle 4 & 5 are way up there on the list but, I dont think Jowitt in for Grix will be any kind of miracle answer.
Although, I do think he should have had some game time over Easter.
