I would disagree with this, if anyone asked Murrell if he were worn out they would probably get the answer that he was knackered and probably should not have played in quite a number of games but unfortunately needs must and the lack of any cover really gave him no choice but to put his hand up to play every week.

Was Riddy not with them?

But he did it Greg and still managed to drag a part time team through the qualifiers! We need to wake up and realise we weren't good enough! We may have had loads of injurys which is fair enough but I'm not buying worn out!

He's on his jollies in Greece.

Well I agree with Oggy and think we did badly in the qualifiers because in crucial games it was a combination of suspensions injuries and Barlow not being available for whatever reason.

There was a fixture build up due to the CC,didn't help.

But how many of them were tough close games? Just the game at odsal! Not like they were getting bashed about! It's like I'm having a dig at just riddy and Ryan but I'm not I think they would admit as a professional sportsman that worn out is no excuse!! Another problem with rotation is wether we like it or not Reynolds wasn't good enough to step in and rotate with them! Obviously different with rangi!

Well we all have opinions and mine on Reynolds is different to yours

I agree with Oggy, they weren't worn out simply not good enough and give up when the going got tough. Few players will leave and have already been replaced with super league material. Ryan,Ridy and rangi wont want to be rotated we should of kept Reynolds and let ryan go, Reynolds is still learning his trade and wont kick up a fuss if hes not in the squad.

Mine too. The thing is, we won't really know about Ben until he gets some serious game time under his belt. Going to Dewsbury will help with that, although it won't help him to gain understanding of playing with Ridyard or Brierley.
