I think we have been guilty of all these financial situations from not paying contractors and players so maybe we are not in the best position to comment on others about their historical failings.

On the contrary, Scarlet, it could be argued that we are very well qualified to comment on such matters as we are all aware of our woeful financial issues in years gone by, but fortunately for us, MC and JM came in and settled the ship and we now have our knight in shining armour in Matt Ellis who has promised that we will never be in such a dire situation again

Under the Pearman era the wages were never paid from day one!
It’s remarkable that Andy Kelly got those players to win 3 from the first 7 games, given that the players had not been paid a single penny all season! Cheques bouncing around all over the place!

Jorge Taufua suspended for two matches for a grade C offence dangerous contact with the head of an opponent
Lee Gaskill out for six weeks hamstring
Daniel Okoro out for six weeks broken jaw

Going into a season with Gaskell as one of your main halfbacks is a recipe for disaster as well we know.

Sheffield really giving it to Wigan tonight, they're pretty much flying under the radar.

Well if we do get to Wembley in the 1895 Cup, at least we won't be sharing the M1 with the Whino's

Went over to wigan last night and although wigan wernt great sheffield look a very good, well organised team, they play very hard and direct down the middle and throw it about realy well. I suppose it depends on injuries but they are no easy beats

On more than one occasion I have stated that Sheffield are in contention for the championship, I put them in-front of Toulouse, Bradford and Halifax, their only issues is depth of squad if they get injuries/suspensions

Please rugbygods.
Make it so Batley beat Cas

14-14 at half time.

Cas winning now, Fev won there last week, you just know what’s going to happen when we turn up in a couple of weeks.

Leon Ruan gone on loan to Doncaster for a month, a stand out at academy level, wouldn't have minded seeing him come back give the age of our second row.

Yes I agree, think he would be one to watch possibly thought he had a lot of potential at academy level. He’s a player who in a couple of years could become a good impact second rower, had a good pair of hands too I recall.

I have seen Ruan twice on tv for Leeds,the first time he looked ok,the second time just recently, he came off the bench at,I think,Headingley and did absolutely nothing.He looked totally out of place.Not trying to knock the lad, but that's what I saw.
