As soon as you mentioned Peterson you lost some credibility. However I do agree with some of the other things mentioned |

'" afraid you have got that one wrong mate. spoke to at least 3 of those players you mentioned one of them yesterday. all they seem to be bothered about is enjoying the break and looking forward to playing in the first grade next season. i will be honest mate i have heard nothing bad from any of them |

| believe me i am not wrong. so you spoke to a few players that are still contracted and they said they cant wait til next season. come on what did you expect them to say, we cant stand jk and broadbent and its a shocking place to be at moment. they would lose thier jobs, they are just saying what you want to hear. were you at salford, no fight no ethusiasm and just did not care. We are in it deep and with a coaching staff that have completely lost the players, it doesn't matter who we sig they will all go the same way. Jk coming out saying the players are gonna get it in pre season was a clear example of what i am saying. JK has seperated himself from his players and that is not good. But hey they said they cant wait for next season so all is well and i am wrong???????????

Have to agree fella. Blanch has served us well, but has struggled to hold his own this season in a poor team. He'll do okay for Catalans after a full season behind him |

Blanch going - not the end of the work I suppose. Not been the same since his op in my opinion, and for a guy with little else to his game than straight line spead and power you are always going to struggle when you lose your pace.
For me its a toss up between taking a gamble on blanch getting back to fitness or taking a gamble on somebody like Penny. Time will tell I suppose, lets hope Kear has made the right call.

Did Blanch’s operation involve removing his ability to defend?

Blanch 2008 v Blanch 2010 stats.... Almost 1 try per game in 2008 redresses the balance somewhat so you can probably forgive the defensive frailties to a degree.
The one leaping out is errors. |

For the first reason I am sorry to see him go, but because of the second, I'm probably ok with it. |

For all his defensive sins he was our leading try scorer and one of our leading meter makers in what was a poor season all round. Not got much of a problem with him leaving provided he's replaced by someone of superior quality. Not sure Ricki Sheriffe fits the bill.
Out of interest, as he had a year left on his contract did we receive any compensation for him?
