You think our set of pretenders, coached by a halfwit, will even get close.

Smell the coffee people, we're a bottom 6 club.

Understandable point, but in our CC winnign season, we punched above our weight on paper, In our 'Sharp' run to the Grand final, we did the same. They key was, no real stars, but a true team, being greater than the sum of the parts, and some key leaders on the pitch (Swain, Kearney, etc....) Couple that with a Bradford, Leeds and Wigan side who, on paper should have been better, under-performing, like we are now, and low on confidence - anything's possible.

This is sport, never give up until it's over, and it's not even started. We may not win the Monor Premireship, but we can compete in the top 6, and if we get to the point where we can beat anyone on our day - who knows.

And, if all else fails, maybe Leeds, St Helens, Wigan, Hudds and the other teams who genuinely deserve to be up there and can stay there, unlike our neighbours, might get 10 points salary cap breaking fine,which could help us also

AND ANOTHER THING, I'VE NEVER RATED JAY PITTS ANYWAY

Eastwood will make their side, amazing signing

It's not just the squad on paper, i mean, look at Huddersfield no real 'superstars' but Brown has them well diciplined and actually work together, both of which we don't do.

It's not the squad I'm too worried about, granted it's not as good as Leeds' but if we can keep everyone fit (dreaming I know) and get Horne and Yeaman back to their career best then I don't think it's that far off.

It's the coach that worries me. Whatever the excuses for this year's shambles, whichever way I think of it there's just no way I can see Agar outsmarting the likes of Potter, McLennan, Brown or T.Smith in any game, let alone when it really counts. As someone mentioned on another thread recently, with the salary cap taking more and more of an effect, the Head Coach becomes the main differentiator and ours isn't in the same league as any of those guys.

So you're saying we have to settle for 2nd??? Fair enough.

Not true. A couple of ageing superstars and an aussie prop who hasn't had a decent game in 3 years will set the world alight next year, just you wait. Throw in the mercurial agar and we can't fail

What an odd thread

Why is it odd to compare our abject shoite recruitment with a club that has ambition?

Oh, hang on, I'm not sucking up to the club, that must be why it's an odd thread.

If only the markets were as predictable.

Maybe it's because you're comparing us to the team that has won the GF for the last 2 years and pretty much no one has got close too. Maybe if you'd of compared us to hudds or cas it would of been more relevant! But hang on our squad on paper is better than those 2.
