Well Smith has got our least affective forward(according to you and some other wannabe coaches on here) training at hooker to cover if injuries occur during a game.Maybe doing that with Ocunber to cover wing and the coaching staff may feel that the other wingers aren’t yet ready for S/L as they see them all the time at training and judge them on that and their experience as coaches and not wannabe coaches on a forum .

I can understand peoples optimism, new season and all the player changes but we really do lack quality and look especially weak in the second row.
Ligi Sao is not a second row.Playing there for Samoa with quality players around him hid the fact that he is too slow to play this position and needs to play in the front row.
If the new big men in the middle can bend the line and get us some offloads away then i can see Jack Walker becoming our main strike player from the back with his excellent back up play and pace to finish off the break.



We a one man team? As Walker is going to be doing hell of a lot according to another wannabe coach.

What are you talking about, you sound like another angry individual (maybe Cators Dad or mate) who doesn't understand what a forum is or how it works.

Fans give opinions (although the Cator one can be backed up with stats if you want) that's the point of this forum, we won't agree with everyone, but this wannabe coaches thing is absolute nonsense

Players might be training in different positions to play to cover injuries, that doesn't mean they will play there, particularly moving away from a real problem area. Plus do you think Smith will be telling all other teams his tactics through the HDM?

Don’t patronise me,I’m not a angry individual or cators dad for that matter.I do know how a forum works but get fed up when players get a right bashing off people who think they know it all and bring up the old stats chestnut to back them up.Did I say they was playing there…no…I said in case injuries happen during a game.How can Smith tell teams his tactics through HDM…they aren’t covering rl any more.

We can give opinions but you seem to belittle people who don’t agree with.There is a few of you like this on here…I just find you a wannabe coach “insult removed, it’s supposed to be the season of goodwill after all”

:lol: Stop being a baby, where have I bullied people?

Let's just say all our players are brilliant, that's why we have been so successful the last few years.

If you want to be an adult, tell me why Joe Cator deserves a place in the 17, tell me a game last season he played really well?

RL is still been covered by the HDM, sorry if that was condescending.

You do sound angry too.

Folk do keep going on about weakness at 2nd row and wing. Unless we get wigans accountant , then i don’t think we will get a full squad with no weaknesses.
Id love liam Martin in our 2nd row but it won’t happen.
There’s other weaknesses in the squad so I do find it puzzling why folk keep bringing up wing and 2nd row.

Here we go again, you disagree with someone and you get called a bully. Maybe forums aren't for you.

Yes, it's terrible when people back up opinions with facts, isn't it?
