Not really. Wigan were slicker and have hit the ground running this year.

I do get fed up of threads like this that slag players off. Last night was just one of them nights where nothing went right at all. So Id prefer it if people get off Matt Cook's and Kris Welham's back. Thought the whole team was pretty poor but thought Vella, Fisher and Newton made a difference in their efforts to ge us in the ame. We don't to be like the dullers when they always pick on certain players who they feel are at fault when it is not the case at all i.e Graeme Horne, Tommy Lee. Was wondering earlier how someone like Graeme is deemed not good enough for a team that finished twelfth last season but be a first choice second row at Huddersfield where there are some talented back rowers such as Gilmour and Faalogo.

You would be best asking Nathan Brown that question but do you think that if both Stephen Wild and Simon Finnegan were fit Graeme would be first choice?

I guess he is the kind of player with utility value that the Giants were looking to add to their squad.

Maybe you should give Mills another go ahead of cook?

Cook had a poor game but that's all it was 1 poor game. Let's get off the lads back and see how he goes over a number of games before we decide he's this years scape goat.

Bit silly when you consider they play different positions

Agree, couple of school boy errors sure it will be a one off..He looked good in the Testimonial game tbf

Against Salford Matt Cook was in my top 5 players for Rovers certainly made me wonder where Galea was going to fit into the side.

Going on last nights performance I think we'd be dropping Dobson, Welham, Cook, Cooke and Webster however I cant see that happening!!!

I cr@p game for goodness... no scapegoats from me... bad day at the office... lack of passion... whatever!

Will start hitting the panic button from round 8... btw after round 5 last year FC fans were getting Kleenex shipped-in container fulls!!!

Not impressed tho so far!!!
