And watts and latus... Kids are not the answer at the moment. Yes we should have developed a few more but unless the senior players are playing well the kids will just get hung out to dry. You need to bring kids in steadily and ease them in, now is not the time...

I thought they would have scored twice as many TBH

.
yep your right, kids are not the answer.....
.
neither is continually playing a player at half back that is not a half back.
to me this is where the balance of the team is going badly wrong, as much as we all love murrell, he simply is not a half back and should be put back to his natural position of loose forward.

we now lose briscoe to injury so either hall or cockayne or welham will step in that position, personally i would say cockayne as he has more experience of that position.
.
we have a young lad called kris bell that could step into the halfback role, people have said it will do his confidence no good if he plays badly, well morgs to me showed he was a little 2 faced the other week when he was quoted as saying that he would give bell some runs out in the second half of the season, now correct me if i`m wrong but dobbo will be back then and thus bell will still not get into the team, so a little two faced of morgs to state that.
we need bell in the team now to start addressing some of the balance.
whether he plays badly or not
WE SURELY CANNOT BE DOING ANY WORSE THAN WHAT WE ARE NOW.

end of the day a hooker is a hooker,a half back is a half back and a loose forward is a loose forward, etc etc.... continually playing players out of position and such is seriously affecting the balance of the team.

Just remind me, where did Murrell play during our promotion season?

in the slower national league his lack of pace didn't matter tho

That was 5 years ago he is now twice the size he was then as he has bulked up for loose/hooker.
He was never gifted with the largest amount of pace he now has even less.
Murrell is no longer a halfback he is a looseman.
Not being funny but it's like saying Lovegrove is still a centre.

Just pointing out no one was slagging him off when we only lost 2 games all season

But that is like comparing apples to oranges though mate.
In 2006 he was 5 years younger probably 2-3 stones lighter, he had played 6 all season and he was up against NL1 defenses.
Now he is bulked up for hooker, hasn't played consistantly in the halves never mind at 7 for years and is up against SL defenses.
Scott Murrell is no longer a HB even though yes he did use to be.

So why do we play him there then?????? Every one else can see it so why can't the man who is being paid to pick the team

Playing bell is all well and good but hes out for 8 weeks i think. Knee injury.
Id like to see sheriffe given a go at fb
