That's the problem the spine is another year older. And to get the best out of Hardaker we need to create space and overlaps for him to run into like he did at Cas, which we cant do because of the lack of a creative halfback. Also we are missing Sam's and Batemans competitive spirit.

Hard to understand how poor our defence has gone especially in our own 25, but we are in a mess. Is this down to Sam not being there at the back organising? Why rest Flower when we have Hamilin, Greenwood, Farrell missing? But looks like IL and KR have made some bad decisions in appointing Lam and t...

<t>Disappointing signing. This will not bums on seats. If we wanted to play exciting attacking rugby to fill the stadium we should have gone for Hurrell and Austin, the first couple of home games would have gone along way to paying them coupled with loss of big earners like Tomkins and Bateman. We h...

<t>The sooner lam gets here the better as there is a lot of work to be done for 2019. Difficult decisions need to be made as to lockers and Tommy do they need to retire and free up some salary cap. And do we retain Hardaker?. Lockers has been a great servant but one appearance for 20 minutes in 2 mo...

Roosters have just signed a young half back Brock lamb as they are worried about losing Lam to Wigan for 2019. Sounds promising for us

A few years ago he was Wigan's Academy player of the year. Warrington are interested as a replacement for Roberts/Brown. But you are right Widnes will do well to keep hold of some their players, cant see Mellor, Whitley and their young hooker Walker playing in the Championship next year.

<t>If Lam isn't coming then Hastings is a good option as he is also a goal kicker. Combine him with Hardaker, Farrah,and Williams we only need to replace lockers and we look to have a decent attacking spine. As Hastings was formerly with the Roosters no doubt Lam will know all about his potential. <...

<t>Bill.inger don't think you will be far off the mark there.Got to be lam no-one else in the frame. Hope your right about Edwards. If Lam does come for only 12 months doesn't give him much time to rebuild. Would suggest Sean semi- retires and takes up the assistant job next season. And with all tha...
