Re: Phil Clarke questions the constant rule changes in rugby league after Super League's opening weekend

I know that laws change but two things about the way that we do it in Rugby League really annoy me. Changing the law/rule part way through a season and failing to implement the same way both make us look idiotic. At least one game last year turned on the interpretation of what a correct play the bal...

Re: Lam previews Wakefield

Do we always have to have such bad luck with injuries?? Our best 17 are imo, 10-15 points better than the next best side. It would be nice to put out our best side but it is not going to happen. Wakefield have some meter makers upfront and we are lacking so it may be down to how we defend. We certa...

Re: Fullback

He did not do too badly for a player considered too slow to play fullback.

Re: Mitch clark

There were rumours about him leaving mid off season but nothing came of them. Thank goodness bosses cannot just rip up contracts. In his one outing this year he did seem up for it though so he is worth a shot. He always looks willing when he comes onto the pitch though then does not really add much.

Re: 21-man squad v Leigh

I am not really worried about the backs given that we were missing so many. Hanley showed up well but did not really get a run in attack and Bibby had a very solid performance. I am worried about our forwards who have not really moved on since last season, have little go forward and seem unaware tha...

Re: Season Ticket renewal pack has landed

The club are making a best judgement based on a pretty rubbish set of circumstances so I do not blame them for having a less than perfect product but like me most season ticket holders lost money on last season. In the end there may be no problem with the lottery as it could be self selecting. Fewer...

Re: New Prop

I had completely forgotten Shorrocks. He did look useful against a tired defence but once again he was a backrow playing as an extra prop rather than a ball player. I hope that all three of Shorrocks, Partington and Smithies are being encouraged to develop that side of their game because the game ha...

Re: New Prop

Morgan Smithies needs to be at 13 Partington was the best 13 we had last year after Lockers. Worked well utilising him as an extra prop. Smithies tailed off towards the end of the season. His defence is second to none but he started giving away too many penalties. He doesn’t offer much in attack th...
