Re: Squad for Wakefield
That was very poor. Plenty of endeavour, little skill. Surely Lam has to go.

How the hell are we going to get anywhere near beating Warrington or Stains, 5 consecutive loses in my mind

Re: Squad for Wakefield
What on earth was Lam doing with his prop rotations. Bullock was doing well but he took him off after 15 mins and he didn't reappear til the last 5 mins. To make matters worse he replaced him with our smallest forward and left Clark on the bench til the second half and even then only gave him 10 mins as he was hooked after two loose carries. The young forwards really had to put a shift in while our senior props were left on the bench for the majority of the match.

Lam clearly doesn't trust Hanley at full-back, but Marshall was a fish out of water and didn't do well. Then Hanley got pwned by their winger and Bibby was badly at fault for the other try. We don't look like we have any idea how to score a try except bash and barge. I thought KPP and Joe Shorrocks both gave it a good go; several times both were in situations where they needed the support, and, as usual these days with Wigan, it was sadly lacking. And this forward rotation: frankly if you're going to bring Shorrocks on after 15 minutes and play him for the rest of the 80, you might as well start him. But none of that is reason why our props can't have a decent run-out. What was the score with Clark?

Re: Squad for Wakefield
Clark dropped the ball twice, second time he subbed him.
Second game on the run where a prop has been brought back on when the game has gone. Last week it was Singleton coming on with 6 mins to go, tonight it was Bullock with 5 remaining.
Lam had a difficult job with team selection and brought Clark, O'Neil & McDonnel back from loan. If this was a one off bad game with a poor performance I could understand it but it isn't. There are consistent performances and they are consistently poor and sometimes downright bad.
Only one way out of this and we all know what it is.

Leigh have scored more points than us this season. Lam will still try and push his attacking brand of rugby though. The mans a clown.
Re: Squad for Wakefield
Short drop-out (abysmal), but then, long re-start? It's like they're all headless chickens out there. And Hardaker, or even French or Hastings in their different ways, at least offer us another kicking option from full-back. A winger who's never played there before (?) doesn't.
