What’s your solution?
Professional coaching from a proven and competent goalkicker would be a start.

No team wins every match we all knew it would be a tough game , we lost a player early and we have a much bigger job to do in 2 weeks .

Lets the overreactions begin ……….
I went tonight and spent near on 60 quid. Lost to possibly the worst super league team we’ve seen. Easy for you to say in your armchair at home isn’t it ?

I would bank on us beating wire or saint helens with an under strength team before I’d bank on is beating wakey at home

Something about that fixture brings out the worst in our team
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

Game was lost as soon as Havard went off after 6 minutes. Without Havard and Ellis our front row is weak. Every team would suffer to some extent with their best two props missing, but few teams in the top half of the table see such a drop off from their two best props to their next best. Byrne, Singleton and Mago are nowhere near good enough and we've known it for a couple of years. We've seen the evidence from the games both have been missing already this year. Hill has been our 3rd best prop and he wasn't even playing.

Whitbread, Fifita and Atoni are stronger than the middles we had, so they were always going to cause us massive problems.

Looking at the scores Smith missed 1 kick out of 5 tries that's 80% kicking.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

And the one he missed would have won the game no?

No debate get a number 6 and a goal kicker he missed two I think , that said needing either tonight is plain embarrassing . Total crap
