Woooooaaahhh there.. He never fooled me..

I disagreed with his signed from the outset. A certain 'brother' openly criticised me on twitter for daring to question DJ and Galea and for doubting PG.. DJ himself blocked me because I didn't follow him like the pied piper!!

This is not an 'I told you so' mission but our recruitment in 2013 was shocking from the outset papered over by one big signing (Ellis) and 2014 will be just the same (Paea). I expect an 8/9th place finish next year without major changes being made!!

Bomber should be staying.
Fook knows where we'll be in years to come without his recruitment expertise.
Perhaps he'll keep his ear to the ground for us in an unpaid, advisory sort of way?

Nice to see that last night has resurrected a bit of the old 'it's Bomber's fault' approach.

What !! A highlight.

Goodo.
Bet he's glad to be waddling away after last nights train crash.

Ive heard leigh miners are interested,sorry leigh miners.

I think the concussion has had a lot more affect on Holdsworth than the club like to admit.

Looked a good player at the start of the season but keeps well out of the way now (not the only one mind).

"Bomber" recruited Holdsworth for you, brought him to Salford and lived next door to him in Salford. He also negotiated his early release from Salford. You will either have to accept Holdsworth for what he is or pay him off. He is moody and you can see this in his play, highs and lows.

Just because one HB fails to live up to expectation does not mean that previous opinions of past players changes. I fear for next season. I was clinging to the hope that Holdsworth and Miller would get better in the off season, but it will have to be a miraculous recovery from here.
I agree Horney is our best HB as things stand, but he has once again spent far too long out injured. The odd season you can say its unlucky, but I am afraid with Horney its no longer a case of being unlucky. His body has taken 15 years of high impact RL and it can not do it anymore week in week out. You have to accept with him that he will be out for more than he is in. That for me is the rub.
I suspect we are going to have to wait a further 5 years before our junior players mature and bring us anything like what we expect. The market is not awash with quality and certainly not the quality of a side with top 4 aspirations.
Sadly also we are now stuck with a lightweight packwho fail to dominate in a way that benefits the half backs. Paea and Feka only need to spend a dozen games out between them and all the go forward we see on paper will be lost.
I forecast more heartache for the faithful. But maybe I am a little raw after last night.

I would be if I was him.

Due to Horne's injury Miller has been thrown in at the deep end and played every game since he arrived.

He is far from the finished article and can't have been expected to play so much so soon.

He does look like a headless chicken at times but at least he takes on the line and I thought he did pretty well in the second half last night.

I think he will be better after a full pre-season.

Think any halfbacks would struggle behind a beaten pack, saying that holdsworth has been disappointing since the cup semi,maybe that head injury is still at the back of his mind, think miller will get better next year, for me the player who hasnt done out for awhile and his tackling has gone awol is yeaman, for me would start with arundel and crooks
