Ah conversation OK.

The lack of effort through the year has come from certain individuals who we are hoping will be moved along to make way for players who are hungry and have experience of winning and knowing what it takes to be a winner. Judging by the fact that our forward pack, without 4 props, comfortably matched if not beat a top 4 full strength outfit suggests that with the addition of some real quality forwards and a top class half back we will hopefully be back challenging near the top next year.

More early eighties Minder than stand-up seventies.

I think the quota/cap is about to bear fruit with teams no longer being 'top 4', 'top 6', 'Top 8' etc as anyone can jump up in the playoffs if they buy right.
Look at Saints and Leeds this year they are not the untouchables they have been.

Very true although Saints are I believe now struggling as a result of a few injuries which goes to show no team can cope without key players for Long.

But look were their still are.

Indeed but in previous years the top teams have had layers on layers of covering players that is no longer the case IMHO this is why we see the situation we do.

so in reality, even kr shouldn't get too comfy expecting to be a top 5 team in the coming seasons then?

But it hasnt been a runaway which is the usual now give that another couple of years and see where we are.

But still can shove 40 odd past Quins away.

No.
It all sounds very NRLish doesnt it.

But have lost some games recently.

it does, which will be better for the game.BUT, how many times do we hear eddie n stevo going on about this year is going to be the best superleague ever every year, everyone can beat anyone, yet come grand final, it's always the same two or three teams that get their. i still believe some clubs don't play by the rules when it comesto the cap and it would be very nieve if the rfl did too

Oh i agree , and Quins are in free fall .

Why would "a scrap" between you and your wife, fire Hull up?
