| To be fair Expro's behaviour is consistent with someone who works with the team. Back the boss to the hilt for as long as you can because if his job is secure then so is your own, but if it becomes clear he's on his way out then you change your tune sharpish and distance yourself as much as you can from his regime in the hope that you aren't tarred with the same brush and shown the door too.
I'm sure that's just a coincidence mind  |

| Quote: barham red "That'd work, but I think the 8 is pretty much there for you anyway, I'd be v.surprised if you missed out. Wakey and Crusaders started -4, Catalans and Salford look really poor and Quins will fade badly when the pitches harden up. That would leave 9 teams fighting for 8 places, would be really shocked if FC weren't in there.'"
Being absolutely honest, I think with Agar in charge we're about 8-10th. Based on the squads and what we saw from teams last year, as well as the limited evidence from the opening 2 rounds, I think you can almost split SL into little groups with where they're likely to finish:
1-2: Wigan & Warrington
3-5: Saints, Huddersfield & Leeds
6-7: Rovers & Bradford
8-10: Crusaders, Castleford & Hull
11-14: Harlequins, Wakefield, Catalans & Salford.
Crusaders look to be more than the sum of their parts whereas we're less than ours, and Cas will be their usual good attack and weak defence. If we don't improve our defence I think that attack will therefore nick them results where we won't. |

Not quite correct, whatever the team sheet said, I only remember Brough playing 7 once, that was the week before the cup final, throughout that season we played and in the cup final, we played a system with Horne as the scrum half and playmaker through the middle, and effectively played two stand offs, Brough second receiver on the right and Cooke on the left, all three arguably out of position, but it worked well, we had much more of a structured attack then the shambles we have now.

Not to mention Blacklock actually playing full back and Motu on the wing, which was definately not their preferred positions. |

Yep, both of those had very good games too, shows that Kear could pick players in different positions for specific games, I can only think that he did this because he felt that certain attributes the said players had suited those positions for that specific game and opposition, and get the best from them, we can only dream of such depth in preparation mow, remember one of Agars early pearlers? "we don't worry about the opposition."

Think everyone was expecting Motu to fill in for Briscoe. Amazement when Blacklock stood back and played full back. Motu scored a cracking try on the wing and the rest is history.
To be fair to Agar i dont worry about the opposition... i do however worry about falling asleep during the game due to boredom. |

Born Black and White
Die Black and White
Hull will give us a tough game but the key is to silence their fans in the Threepenny Stand.We have to do this because if we do'nt they will get behind their side and lift them in a way you've never seen,heard or witnessed before.

Very true, but would that apply to the car park attendant ?.
