It's much more about the coach and the players than it is IFL.

I can't see that. All I see is IFL cut costs last year, Wane resigned because he knew we were losing quality players and backroom staff. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
Whatever happened to Billy McGinty's pineapple?

Did Wane tell you that? Be great to know the reason he actually gave was false
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

We lost Sam Tomkins, replaced with Hardaker, Bateman replaced with Greenwood and Sutton replaced with Bullock.
Bitcom went to Man City, we couldn't compete salary wise, Matty Peet went to Sale but has since returned, so the overall changes haven't been that big.
Wane left, which many on here wanted.

The vast majority of human conclusions on what is true or false are based on narrative rather than logic. Despite this, we all convince ourselves that we are logical.

So, if I wanted Wane to stay, I see our current situation as proof that I was right - it fits my narrative.

Someone else thought Wane should go, so they find other reasons for our poor performance: Lam, players left, IFL etc.

With Sammut back in the side and Ratchford missing I think we will do them by 10

A few more injuries won't help but they're missing Ratchford which will. It will be interesting to compare the performance/score with the Challenge Cup game to see if Barcelona was a one off or the start of a dip in form.

Bateman was never replaced. Greenwood was meant to replace him but in reality ended up replacing Joel Tomkins after the whole 'rectum of Wigan' incident.
