| Just had a look at the fixtures. Leeds, Hull KR, Huddersfield and then Warrington. Massive 3 weeks coming up, we need a win out of the first three.
Sad but in reality if we can pick up a few points and also beat Leigh, we just might be safe come the end of the season.

| Quote TimmySmith="TimmySmith"I would be satisfied with the basics right now. 5 proper drives and a kick complimented by some of the defence shown this year would see us see us take the 2 points on a few occasions.
The strategy of firing the backs/wingers in for the first few tackles just doesn’t work as it used to and I think even more so for us, as at the moment we’re often starting off on the back foot 10m from our own line.
I remember seeing the likes of Cockayne and Fox often break through the line and put us in a really good position or even score.'"
I remember when sending the Wingers/Centres in for drives on the first play or first and second play was to give the forwards a rest, these days, the forwards don`t even seem to do much!
Baffles me we stick with it regardless, the other week we conceded 2 consecutive Goal Line Dropouts because we thought 1 metre from our own line, under massive pressure, our best idea was to send Innes Senior in... That ball goes to Tanginoa, who is there ready to take the ball, we don`t concede cheap possession like that.

I was just going to mention this myself, Timmy. The idea of making the wing men take the ball forward in the first two tackles started at the time of the two wingers that you mention. It was quite a successful tactic at the time, but seems less effective now that it has become commonplace. Although TJ tends to use the move to good effect at times.

Chester wants all the backs to do 20 carries and at least 100m per match which is stupid its the forwards job.

I don't think Chester knows that there are different positions, and that those different positions require different skill sets and attributes.

Why don’t you apply for the position of Coach, you must have plenty of coaching qualifications, I say “put up or shut up”

Because I enjoy being successful at my current job, though I'm pretty convinced I could match Chester's 2021 win rate

We don’t have much luck do we lol.
Gale back early from injury first game.
Tomkins returned against us last week and put in some good assists.
Gale returns again in a rudderless Leeds team since he’s been injured.
Still we need to be targeting this Leeds game and making it our first win of the season.

Point 1, gale was probably the worst leeds player on the pitch in first game even laying on a try for tommy
Point 2 but whitley who is a better player was missing instead
Point 3 leeds aint been any better with gale
We have got to stop blaming bad luck you make ya own luck in anything in life fact is where on a 8 streak losing run (counting the last 2 games from last season)and somthing like 8 wins in 43.......
