True, but the manner of the defeat is very disappointing.

I see the problem this way. We have one FB two wingers, as I doubt we will see much of Jerry if he doesn't retire with injury and franco is useless two young centres, as thornley injured yet again so I expect he will contribute very little Gale looks done to me and every team are now sussing him out, Kaye is not an half at all, which only leaves Lino
Our one to five were out played man to man by their opposites today. Plus you don't have options if any further injuries should happen and more backs get crocked

I agree, but the question is, do we have enough to win the championship this year, if the answer is yes, then none of that really matters that much as from next year onwards, we seem to be planning pretty well throughout the squad.

Indeed we don’t. It’s something I have never understood though and voiced many times over. I’m sure the Championship GF could easily sell out a stadium of such as Wire or Leigh etc with a bit of promotion. RFL do not seem interested in making it a proper event though.

After what I have seen today, I am not too sure. Toulouse had a lot in their favour this evening but still they looked far stronger than us in many areas. If we win the league and get to the final, playing them with our present squad would be far from easy even at Belle Vue.
