| Would look at dropping handforth who was dire, i suppose i'm comparing him to branighan and holroyd who created tries for fun, but we just never looked like scoring. Bring in chandler for hesketh who it think has probably been our worst prop this year. Then look at doing something with the centres as neither really give much, paterson is better than both of them in every aspect of the game and maybe shift reittie inside and play worrincy on the wing

| Quote ="marillion man"Quote ="distantdog"We have briefly mentioned the Handforth situation before Robin. I believe that he (and KH) are the main reasons why we stayed in this division a couple of seasons when we were as good as relegated. He was at the centre of everything we did, was our undisputed leader, and I believe was KH's right hand man. I cannot see Harrison dropping him. After watching Batley for over 40 years, I have rarely seen one single player have as big an influence on the team and on a season as he did. As for Thackrey. I am definitely in the 'one trick pony' camp. I am not sure that him and Handforth are a natural pairing!
On Riettie, he is the nearest you will get to Karl Harrison playing on the wing - Harrison likes him, and I suspect he will keep playing him.
On a general note, how come all of teh doubts have come rushing back? You have had a decent season so far. How can one win change the mood so quickly? You will be there or thereabouts at the end!'"
Not even Glen Tomlinson ?'"
Or Sean Richardson?

| Featherstone should be sacking their coach today shouldn't they? This thread shows cleanly that some people still haven't got a clue about this game despite watching it for years. No-one has a given right to beat other teams easily - even those sat on the bottom. Get a grip and start enjoying The Championships instead of whining and yearning for Super League which, quite frankly, aint what it's all cracked up to be.

| Nothing wrong with losing but its the manner we lost on Thursday. OK so you have a bad day but that doesnt mean you go in half hearted in to tackles like what did happen. Also Whilst I thing our pack has been strengthened and the quality is for me better than in recent seasons the halfbacks for me still have to prove themselves. All that possession and we did nothing with it. We have had a number of games where the Halves have struggled to create that much (Leigh, Keighley, Skolars for example). As you say no team has a right to win but you have to go out there with the right frame of mind and not get away from the game plan. Watching Thackray do nothing and Handforth run around with a ball like a headless chicken is reason to be frustrated and annoyed. Having said all that better to have close games and tough games than the non contests in SL. Well done Keighley and hard luck Swinton. No easy beats in this league

| Its how you play on the day and for 80 mins - forget last thursday or the NRC Cup, or any other past game for that matter. As long as there is good rugby to watch, a decent crowd, good banter and atmosphere and we can show super doooper league what rugby is all about. (Good luck and may the best team win on the day - of course that hopefully will be Leigh as I am a leyther till I die).

| If we want to win the league we need to improve and keep improving. Just like every other team in the Championship. On paper Fev and us are probably out in front.
but as we all know RL isnt played on paper is it?
this is the reason why we go to watch every week.
Bring on Sunday where we can put the mistakes right and hopefully get a draw with the big boys with a chance to make some ££££.
