The old regime are dead and buried thank god. However that was half a season ago, sooner or later there will come a day when we can't blame them for everything.

Completely agree, but i do think we should allow them at least one off season to recruit players. As i'm sure we're all aware it isn't the easiest time to recruit mid season especially with the franchise announcement around the corner.

Of course we can't blame them for everything but this is pretty much the team they assembled before the Club went into Administration. Had that not happened we would be watching the same side but with no hope for the future whatsoever other than waiting for the next winding up order or next request for money.
I'm afraid this season is pretty much a "write off" and all we can do is hope for a franchise (and another 3 years in SL) and see what we can do with recruiting players when available in September rather than being presented with a "fait acomplis".
The new regime can only play with the cards they are dealt and whilst we know we need some creativity at half back you cannot go out and sign someone halfway through the season when you don't know where you are going to be playing next season.
Looking forward the the announcement on the 8th June. I have no idea what it is but I just feel with the Club booking Cedar Court rather than using Cats Bar it has to be something special that we will all be happy about.

I've got huge respect for Tommy Lee - he joined a team that was on its ar5e and has covered in a pivotal position that isn't his natural one; he runs his blood to water every week, puts in huge hits in defence and it's clear he's trying his best for the team - no quibbles there.
It's true to say though that his kicks in play just aren't up to scratch; time to give the lad a break, put him in his natural position and let Moore have a run out - he's had a few weeks of full time training now, and of all the teams to test him against, Salford are a fair bet.

unless the player is a prop forward, we seem to have no difficulty in finding a few of those

| His kicking especially on there line was rubbish, they went dead or the centre cleared up with no opposition on him, in fact it took 75 minutes to put a ball with some height on it which created a try . One other thing ,when we had 2 penalties in our half why did we do a quick tap while the wind was behind them ?

Don't disagree but the difficulty is finding a scrum half. Moore may be up to it I don't know but unfortunately quality scrom halves are as rare as rocking horse droppings.

| Tommy Lee was and still is a hooker.
Why have we signed Gareth Moore if we're not going to play him? I can't accept this ''not ready for Super League'' crap anymore from anyone. Not fans, not coaches, not anyone. How long did Leeds take to decide Danny McGuire was ready for Super League, how long did Wigan take to decide Sam Tomkins was ready for Super League?
If we've signed a player as a Super League club to play Super League level, throw him in and see what he's got. We'll never know while ever he's playing in the reserves week in week out. I'm fed up of all this safe play from Kear. Take some chances FFS!

| If Moore comes in and looks the bizzo, or at least as good as we've got, we will be in a much stronger position with tommy and jules rotating at 9.
Tommy has been one of our more consistent players and deserves a run at his preferred position after what he's done out of position for the team.
I'd go Wildie and Moore In the halves Lee at 9 and Rinaldi off the bench.

| If we're that deperate for a SH, and we are, I don't understand why we can't give Moore a go. The only reason can be JK doesn't think he's ready yet.
There doesn't appear to be anyone out there who we could bring in, even short term.

| We've got to be thinking about bringing Moore in now. With the greatest respect we have a number of players who are 'not ready for Super League' so throwing Moore in can't do any harm. Lets face it creatively it can't get any worse.

JK said at that meeting last week that Moore was not ready and that the player was quite happy to play in the reserves for the time being to get used to the structures and the players and so on, perhaps now is the time to show us if he's ready.
