Instant success?? how long we been in SL now?? Give ur head a bang, i dont think it is the least bit unreasonable for fans to see some year on year improvements, but we arnt, in fact we are going backwards under the current regime.

my sentiments exactly...hence me not going this year..........................
other than quins away...

Well said.

The £125k (approx) we paid for Westerman is roughly the profit we made last year

Out of interest, how much did you make last year?

bearing in mind that in them 3 years weve been arguably the most boring, one-dimentional shmables in the league.....
how long this mess can go on is beyond me...the simple fact is....[sizeWERE CRAP............[/size and this will continue to happen under this regime.....

as good as jake webster can? were was he for yeamo's 2 try's?????

He was badly at fault for the first, but i think he was busy counting his winning pay to be too bothered about the second

Fools ..with Phelps & Obst on board it's champagne rugby league all the way to Old Trafford...I for one thank christ I had the foresight to get my pass before Berro & Tansey left and we signed these two behemoth's of the game....who's laughing now eh!!

Westerman is head and shoulders above Washy, as will be proved when he plays 13, he had a poor game yesterday however that does not make him as poor as Washy

I think that it's a good signing overall. He gives much needed rotation for Houghton at Hooker, and will be better at this than Washbrook. He's also acceptable cover for the half-back position, although I'm really hoping that we sign a new first-choice half for next season.

Edit:

I also think that we have a strong potential line-up of

Phelps
Sharp
Whiting
Yeaman
Briscoe
Horne
Long
O'Meley
Houghton
Fitzgibbon
Manu
Tickle
Westerman

Obst
Moa
Radford
Lauaki

sounds decent to me.
