Barely any top level experience between our top 3 coaches.

It shows.
You're not wrong there Nathan
Rubbish. This year our defence is letting us down Briers had nothing to do with that.
We are poor in attack and defence and the buck stops with Peet. If Field or French don’t pull something out of the hat he has no clue about tactically outsmarting the opposition. Wigan currently play the game one one way and have no idea when the going gets thought what to do.

Fair play to Hull KR, we we’re beaten fair and square, we didn’t help ourselves with the shorrocks red, but I don’t think it would have made much difference, we know the short falls in the team, the pack isn’t a wet weather pack and we're short of a stand off and a hooker.

But in many ways it’s good for the game to get 2 “smaller” teams to the final, I just hope the fans turn up at Wembley for it, otherwise it could look embarrassing on TV

Wet weather rugby with a man down for a full half, what more do people expect. The ref killed us

No the ref didn’t - Wigan could of easily won that game we didn’t play well enough stop making excuses you will never get everything you’re own way - wigan lost the game more than hull kr won it
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

But he didn’t. We are a poor team. We have no plan b and a coach who doesn’t know how to see a close game out. We should have won, and if we played smarter rugby we would have. Dumb rugby cost us……again.

Yesterday a late high shot on the kicker was a yellow, today a heavy tackle but not illegal, is a red

Direct contact with the head has been a red for years.
