If you go back and listen to the Williams interview he kinda looked sheepish when he asked the fans to keep spending their money.

The man as been flogged to death, 3 rd in the metres made table behind 2 wingers.

To paraphrase the popular song, we may indeed have 99 problems, but Paul Vaughan isn't one of them.

And yet he still gets picked.

Indeed but he can't do it on it own. We were mullered in the pack and they had 2 out.

Sadly, we have quite a few players that wouldn't get a bid on ebay.
Frightening really that a starting hooker was substituted so soon by the man who was waiting with his bike clips on for his journey to Saints.
I think sorting some of the basic mistakes out will steady the ship & maybe even get a couple of wins if the effort is maintained.

I don't get to go as much as i used to, i think after last night i'm quite thankful. One of the most depressing nights i've spent watching one of my sports teams. Totally abject and embarrassing.

I know it's been done to death on here. But it's astonishing how we've collapsed this year. For the first 8/9 games we were regularly between 6-8 out of 10 and obviously had that winning run. We looked a reasonably good team. If not outstanding. But we were heading in the right direction. Even if we over achieved at the start, our performances gave me enough to think we'd gotten over last year and we'd still pick up regular wins. I was expecting a top 4 finish. Now it's looking likely we'll be part of the bottom 4. It's only for the fact that Salford & Hull KR haven't been picking up any points in the league just lately too. But i can see either of those plus Hull FC and a resurgent Hudds overtaking us in the next month. We're like a baloon that has slowly been let down. I took the defeat to Wigan as a narrow close fought game but even then we went into it favourites. Then we got done but half a Saints team. These were two stand out games i was looking forward to but was left deflated after each one.
We'll probably never find out what the issue has been. Whether it was Mcguire, Powell, Fitzpatrick or bad apples etc.
People are saying we showed effort last night. I think that is clutching straws and maybe naive of many to think just because Powell has gone and Chambers was in charge we were somehow going to turn Catalans over. Only a handful of players showed real effort. The only time i saw a collective effort was when the ref gave incorrect play the ball to Philbin when he was clearly being held back by Cats players. That seemed to rile everybody up and in the next set with smashed them and they only made aboiut 20 metres. But realistically we should be showing that sort of defence from the start. Like Wigan and Saints do. After last night it kinda just feels like the season is over.

A lad behind me actually said ''I'd be happy with 12-24''.... don't really know what to make of that

Considering he arrived in the UK on Wednesday, only had the Thursday training session, and would still have been severely jet lagged, Mikaele looked the ideal foil to Vaughan.

He inspired the team when he came on as substitute.

Brett Hodgson used to play in Super League with his family staying in Aus. long term.

Maybe we could work a similar arrangement with Mikael, his current contract expires at the end of this season.
