We are looking good. We have definatley moved forwards. We just need to stay consistent. We would all have accepted where we are had we been offered it at the start of the comp.
I think we maybe need to be just a little braver in respect of our off half position. How good are Dean and Tyson Wilson. I don't know because I last saw HTW play when he was ten. If either are good enough then perhaps they should play. That's no disrespect to Washbrook who has been a revalation off the bench. We are nearly there . The rest of our season should be faced with confidence. I think we can compete on our day with anyone. I am looking forward to the future. More Rioja anyone?

Fully agree that off half is our major problem. I like Pryce and he shows glimpses of real quality, but just don't get enough minutes from him. We need a more robust Plan B than getting Washy to fill in, as he's been doing great work elsewhere in the team.

Great spine of English players who are all at a good age. Thinking further into the future not much recruitment needs doing for next year which is a bonus, just some retentions and two class players at centre and stand off needed.

Players coming back will give us a boost for the next couple of games, important game next week and one we need to be winning despite Wakeys good form.


To be honest i think we can get by with the centres we have.The priority has to be a 6.
Fonua and Tuimavave should be our starting centres when everyone is fit.
I would think the club have already started looking.Its a crucial position and teams do struggle when they lose their starting 6.
I would still take Danny Brough if he came available

I don't even think we've hit close to top gear yet, I think this team has far more to give and I expect us too get even better. I was confident of being contenders at the start of the season and I'm still very confident, I think we'll make at least one final this season.

I don't think the league is that strong (compared with previous seasons) and I don't fear for us against anyone.

Location: In the land of wishful thinking once more. Patiently waiting for our time to finally arrive.
So far so good would be a fair assessment. Won 7 lost 4 is a decent return. Out of the four we've lost, 2 were by a point with another by 2. The only real blot on the season was the nightmare night at Widnes.

We look fit and strong, as our 2nd half performances show, which is probably credit to the work done pre season. We are showing glimpses of what we could be in attack and team spirit and confidence appears to be excellent.

Before the season started I hoped we would win a minimum of 50% of our games (i.e. 15 wins from 30) and we are clearly currently on course for that.

Looking forward to the next 12 games and hoping we will continue to improve as the players become more familiar with each other's games.

Just a note of caution though, we looked like serious challengers in April/May 2013 and by the end of that year we'd had 70+ points put past us in a play-off game, the coach was clearing his desk out, and this board was having one of its regular meltdowns.
Although I would say we look in far better shape overall than we were 3 years ago.

So, onwards and upwards hopefully. Still plenty to play for in both the League and the Cup. We've still to enter this year's Challenge Cup, whereas some Super League clubs have had their interest in this year's competition ended already :D :lol:






I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.

Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.

I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.

I believe only one Super League club has so far sunk without trace. Unfortunately I cannot allow their name to pass my lips.

We should be satisfied with where we are and how we've been performing. We made a good start and then had a wobble but recovered well. Its a bit frustrating that we lost three games narrowly but we won three narrowly too.
The job is only half done however, we need to kick on throughout the second half of the season. Wakey away is a potential banana skin, we rarely do well there. Catalans will be tough too but if we win them both we'll be nicely placed. Lose them both however....

Then there was knowledge
Now there is only information

Think there's more to come. Overseas players often take a while to fully settle in, so think we still have the best to come from our new players.
I've been critical of LR over the last couple of years, but I'm glad he's proved me wrong so far. He's changed the culture of the club and that will be his legacy. We've won games this year we'd have lost last year.
There'll be no wholesale changes next year, so onwards and upwards. A number 6 will a priority, and I'm sure the club will be on with it.
There's been some pain over the last few years, but I can see there are structures in place and we, as a club, are moving forward. Have quite a good feeling about where we are heading.
