I know that we're only a few games into the season but, keeping players fresh and looking after those that are just coming back from injury needs to be taken account of.
Green didn't look to be moving that well, later on in the 2nd half.
Having said that and I know that we shouldn't take Bradford lightly but, Hull will be a bigger test than Bradford and IF we can get a result on Friday, it will help set us up for the next few weeks.
After Toronto, away at York, we have Wigan, Leeds, Cas and then Saints, which will take some managing so having as many fit & fresh players as we can will be important.

Yeah true enough, definitely need to be targeting Hull on Friday though, they're fragile after throwing away that 18 point lead at home.

| Quote: wrencat1873 "Slightly o/t but, on the subject of the top sides. After Huddersfield's rude awakening against Wigan, every side has suffered at least one defeat and although it's still (very) early days, it could point towards a more open season, with the possible exception of Toronto, who currently look to be in all sorts of trouble with their wafer thin, overpaid squad - I think they will win a few games when they are playing in Canada but, right now, they look to be all over the place.
Back to Hull, they are one of the biggest sides in the comp and they do have the quality to beat any side on their day.
However, like most sides, they seem to lack some consistency. Having said that, the manner of their defeat against Catalan will be hurting like hell and they will start the game with all guns blazing.
If we can match (or better) them in the early exchanges then, we will have a chance - should be a great game.'" Toronto's first win will come against us in a few weeks I think as that will be one of those games

It would be Navarette, though you're right, he is playing well, but I think to keep everyone fresh, rotating, if and when we can is a good idea. Having said that, it looked like Green picked up a knock. Maybe weve learnt a lesson in playing players when not 100% fit

| Think this will be a tough one.
Still two experience HB’s down, still a lot of new players bedding in and above all two players who have not played in month returning to action.
It’s a big ask against what on paper is a very good team. Hull really should be a far more threatening prospect than they appear. Let’s hope we are lucky and they remain in hiding.
It’s not that I don’t think we are good enough to compete with them we hopefully will be soon. I just worry that a disrupted 2019 season and an equally disrupted start to this season is still causing issues.
It showed at Cas, for forty minutes we were toe to toe then on the second half we totally lost composure. Sure two bad injuries and an incredibly harsh sin binning didn’t help but I’m not convinced we had it on us even without that lot.
To get to where we were this time last year is still a few games off imho and that’s without further disruption.
A win is definitely possible but performance is what matters most. You can lose but be heading in the right direction or you can just lose.
On the more positive side, as I said earlier the only predictable thing about Hull is how unpredictable they are.

| I know he's a one trick pony but, as boring as he is, Sneeyd can kick us to death. Need to keep the penalty count down to zero! At least we know all his conversions will be out wide generally down Johnstone's wing.
Who is the ref?

Almost as boring as the same old tries we keep leaking out on the wings for the past few years, with players constantly shooting out the line or coming too far in field - needs sorting!

| The try's down Johnston wing at Salford, looked like Atkins and Johnston were stranded on there own .No other Wakey player any way near. We seemed to cover a lot better on other wing but think this was more to do with Jowitt than planing by the Coach

There was nobody pushing out on that side of the field, which eventually leads to a 2 on one against Johnstone or that he has to gamble and try and close down the last but one attacking player, which, if unsuccessful, leaves a walk in for the opposition winger.
There is something wrong with our defensive structure
Had Jowitt not covered behind the line on our right, it would have been the same on that side too.
It wasn't lack of effort or commitment from any player but, there is something not quite right, which has been a problem for a long time.

Marc is so boring, I’ve heard he spends all Saturday polishing that Lance Todd trophy, then for a change on a Sunday he polishes the other one, trophy that is.
