After saints defeat tonight a win for us tomorrow would take us two points off the leaders!This season is shaping up to be a cracker we could finish anywhere.Heres to hoping it continues for rest of season and the closeness of the competition raises the quality of the national team. |

To raise the quality of the national team, it needs the coach to constantly look beyond the former "big four" and actually select players who are classy and in-form. In previous seasons it has been obvious that players plaing for Saints, Wigan, Leeds and Bradford have been picked when there have been others who could easily have filled their places who play for unglamorous sides. The last "Origin game" was a case in point. Yorkshire stuffed Lancashire and the Lancashire side contained the majority of the then GB squad. It was obvious that there were some good players in that Yorkshire team who should have come into contention for a GB place that season. In fact only 3 made the train-on squad. However, the coach (Was it Waite or Noble?) decided to stick with the majority of tried tested and failed players and as the old saying goes "Keep doing what you've always done and you'll keep getting what you've always got!" |

i agree.the 'big 4 policy' in the past may have seemed an obvious option but it hasnt worked.the closeness of the competition should signal that players from huddersfield,hull kr,wakey and cas are capable of matching the 'big 4' and should be pushing for international honours. |

Tommorow we could be between anything between 2nd-8th thats how close the SL is this year. A win would put us in 5th at LEAST and depending what leeds, KR and Huddersfield do, we will remain to see. Whats made it intresting in this weekends fixtures is that every fixture as been between teams playing in top 8 playing team below, apart from the Cas V Hull game, but now Hull have dropped to 9th, its turned out to be top v bottom halfs in all fixture....tommorows going to be a intresting day.
