says in todays star that we are intrestrd in finch(must be true )

dream on

thorman is that good at scrum half even huddersfield noticed how good he was last year by playing him at full back all season


Rubbish, isnt the word

get a grip james rule and sod off back to oz and this time come back with a signature of a class half.

And Kearney

We could have had Peter Sterling in his heyday today and it still wouldn't have made any difference.

It won't make any difference until the players show the effort and determination needed to succeed. Lack of motivation is the biggest problem.

as I said in another thread, in 2007 we went and got Berigans signiture, in 2008 Crockers...both fantastic players, but neither were as crucial as replacing Cooke (and then Dykes)

i disgaree entirely! we only lost by 4 points! a decent halfback would have made all the difference. Stick Cooke or Dobson in Hull's side today and the game would have gone the other way due to their better kicking game alone.

Thorman was shocking today. It looked like he had something better to do, like shopping with his Mrs or washing the car.

Fair enough. But i disagree entirely with yourself

Thought neither Dobson or Cooke were that good today (some poor kicks from Dobson in particular) but Rovers chase was 100% better than ours.

I agree we do lack a real 7. Although we have won five i dont think we have been very convincing. i think that could come down to coaching because our halves arent too bad. We need to change our style of play because sometimes we are too boring and place one up rugby, especially in areas where we can cause damage on there line. there have been too many times where we have had forwards making hit ups 10 yards to there line. its good to get us set up for the next tackle for a play or move but thats non existent. other teams in the super league look more creative then we do and i think if we changed our style or had a seven that can direct and give us options then we would be more successful. we have dangerous players like yeamo and willie manu out wide that can cause problems but we dont have flair and look too flat to create chances.

Trouble is he may sign a union one who kicks everything down field, usually into touch.

Agree Yeamo and Manu are threats but a good 7 would get the ball to them at the right time and not just at second or third drive in
