I am expecting FC to improve in the second half of the season as TS systems embed and after contract decisions have been made on the 1st May. We won't make the play offs but we will improve. Onto 2024 to see how good TS really is, with his own players in place.

so warrington have been doing undersized athletic forwards for years, and we've been bullied. a lot of our fans have lauded your pack, whenever you were on sky and satae and sao had a good game, except when you've been getting skittled with the same players.

i dont know if there's a right or wrong method, but i know we've got big bodies up front now and seem a million miles better than at any point since 2013. and that was smith recruiting props that aren't as big.

pressed submit too soon

HOWEVER

having big men doesnt mean sod all if they're not prepared to put a shift in.

I hope you are right, it ruins the game. I know some teams are expert at milking the rule but the game was already fast enough, blatant holding down should still be penalised, but some players are wriggling and kicking before the tackle is completed. I'd like to see that penalised as much as the other way but it won't happen.

It's a lottery .

It needs to go for me, worst part about the rule imo is that there’s no time to question what it is you’ve done. You can’t correct things that way & it leaves teams guessing.
