We need to give forber more game time.Im sure hes in our plans for the finals so give him minutes.If leeming gets injured now we could be knackered.Not sure if forber even came on

I'd like to see him start and break down their defences with Leeming coming on later when the game has opened up.

Agreed. I thought that's why we signed him.

Agreed. I thought that's why we signed him.

Sorry, but I don’t understand your post. That’s why we signed who? Are you are referring to Tom Forber?

I think the general consensus is that we are tired and the prospect of us lifting any more silverware is nothing but a dream. Personally, I think we have every chance of cleaning up providing we can get our strongest 17 on the paddock. The difference that French, Smith, Ellis and Faz can make is immense. Three of our remaining games are at home and we have a fantastic record at The Brick/DW. A win in Perpignan will set us up perfectly for a title decider (in my view) against HKR. Whatever happens, I am certain that we will not roll over, the opposition will need to earn the right to be called Champions and fair play to them if they do beat us.

We are heavy favourites with the book makers to win both the LLS and the GF.

“Nothing more than a dream” is very strange talk.

Field, Smith and French haven’t played together since Wembley where we absolutely hammered Wire after embarrassing HKR in the semi (we also embarrassed them in the semi before the GF last year).

Not my words, that is the feeling I get when I read posts on this forum!
We’ll get them back, intensity will resume and we’ll be the team to fear.

Sorry about that. I meant Leeming who was going to be the impact player at some time during the match to spell O'Neill after we had worn the opposition down.. There was also the option of keeping them both on and Leeming going to loose-forward. A better version of the Powell/O'Neill duo. Fortunately, Ellis has really come good at 13.

Ha, right thank you I should have read your post several more times then maybe it would have made sense to me

[Southern Softy]

That's OK. Often they don't make sense to me!
