When are we going to get some decent ones?we will do nothing this season without a good platform from the forwards. You can have the best backs in the world but it means nothing if there isnt a good pack in front of them.

Is there owt available in the shops?

What happened to that chris young from barrow?its not my job to search for them but i just cant beleive there isnt better on the market than we have already got. Even if it means taking a young prop from a super league club, we just desperately need some go forward, i havnt seen us win the arm wrestle in the forwards once this season

i agree....need some puch up front....azuie makes yards (even from standing still) cheryholme and ostick to develop but need some more support!!!

Castleford Lock Lane

Are there any possible super league loan targets?

If were short on cash would seem an ideal route

gannon is way past his best and can at times be a liability with his frequent penalties,

I agree ganon is a liability, he does one good thing and then follows it up with a penalty. Against fev the game was in the balance and we have the ball but yet ganon still manages to give a penalty away, muppet. Our signings this season are just not up to scratch im afraid

Is nt Chris Hill available?

you not mixed up with penky???? he normally does that!!!!

Penky does more good than bad but ganon is the other way round.!!!!

really?

penky made stuff happen when he came on today. up until our first try 10-0 down they were all over us and we hadnt even been up their end with ball in hand

Penky was good but I prefer his dad. At least he is a Leyther.Penky needs to come home.

Obvious to everyone about 3 games in to the season apart from MC. Funny also to hear Ryan Clayton saying that he is out of favour with the coach. Already? Not a drinker then Ryan?Another to critisize coaching methods? I guess we wont be seeing much of him this season then lol.

Its going to be a long season. We will struggle to make the six and more than likely will be in the dog fight at the bottom. What a turnaround.

He could always spend some time in the 23's and find some form & work harder. Has he played well at all this season ?

Has he played at all? Never noticed him when he did and you have to question what MC saw in him to make him sign him.

Surely Clayton can't be that bad? He was very good for Cas when they were last in this league, and held down a SL squad place for the last two season. A guy with that track record should be at least half decent at this level.

The leagues just play so differently. I think you can get away been a mobile forward in SL but i think Claytons problem is that he has never really been good enough for Centre and he isnt big enough to play second row in this league. Hes inefective when it comes to going forward but he isnt the only player in our pack guilty of that.

So how many Penatiles did Gannon give away yesterday! ......... from memory none, i find it amazing that this penalty machine tag has been attached to Gannon, nothing like getting behind our own players is there!

i remember one "Paul Davidson" now he was a penalty machine, and by christ did we love him!

I feel we are 1, maybe 2 depending on Barlow's form, forward shy of a good team. Only Aizue ever looks like busting through the first tackle and dragging defenders in.

Cherryholme defends well and takes the ball up plenty but dies the moment a defender touches him. Gannon slightly better but not a patch on Makali.

Come back Sayeeeeeeed!

I'd bring in two new props and cancel this DR agreement thing, nothing against Fairbank i'm just not a big fan of the system at all. Gannons is not the player he used to be, but his experience could be vital to younger players.

Definitely worth looking up into Super League from looking at some of the past players we've signed like Kopzack, Matty James and Maloney. All i know is we are not going to do anything this year with the pack the way it is.

I might be wrong, but I dont think Dom had anything other than a trial set-up for the bears. I cant see him listed on the web.

Jim Gannon puts so much work in in defence. He gives away the odd penalty but without him up the middle Leigh would have run amok. He is one who can actually defend the line from big forwards.

Gave away at least 2. One for pushing over the man trying to play the ball when leigh were right on your line in the 1st half. Gifted us 6 more attacks on your line, can't remember if it resulted in a try or not. And he gave one away near the half way line, again in the 1st half I think. He was the same at widnes. Has a lot of positives but ruins it all with silly pens.
