They must have shown for to be a international, they aren't hitting the form that their capable of.
Top form? Maybe ssaints away.

Like I said a derby negates your coach needing a clue about motivating his team. That must be why you have conceded the same points as us then down to your half backs Have your i, n, j, u, r, e and s keys worn out yet? Also I have just noticed we are on -6 but the point is exactly the same anyway.

As I haven't been banned I'm allowed to.
What I'd call obsessed is begin banned, numerous times, then offering money to have it lifted.

Putting aside who the opposition was, Wigan were brilliant last night and I doubt most teams would have faired better than Hull did, however it was lovely to see them smacked so hard at home and the 'faithful' doing the early walk

And there we have it. The issue for both teams IMO is that I think that Wigan and Warrington and really stretching ahead of the opposition (money talks - Lenegan and Moran are in a different league financially to other backers and both now have top class coaches in place), and with Leeds not far behind our chances of winning anything would have to seem remote without a spectacularly lucky Challenge Cup draw.
FC are financially self-sustaining now but we choose not spend on a top class coach and have a random and short termist recruitment policy - our academy is OK but recruitment in the open market has been poor for 5 years. We have an opportunity to sort a lot of this out next year as we have all our quota players OOC apart from O'Meley who's been a great signing anyway, but I'd like to bet now it will be a disappointment.
Rovers IMO have done fantastically well to get to where they are, which is pretty much the same position as FC on the pitch. Whether you can kick on to genuinely challenge the top 3 teams on a consistent basis and win some trophies is more debatable.
So the reality at present is that all we have to play for is a derby double.
