AND - slow typer

FFS, I can't believe the negativity around here at times

Our Leader took a calculated risk.....it paid off....great stuff
Youngsters get game time at the highest level...great stuff
One of them picks up a MotM award....great stuff
We win...two points...great stuff
Morley (reading between the lines, today) may well be staying next year...great stuff
We're near the league's summit...great stuff
Yet we've STILL got negative people on here. Tell you what, #### off to Widnes or Cas and take mediocrity/5h1te week in, week out. We don't need your crap round here. We've won the LLS shield and 2 CCs in the last 3 years, and people still bleat. DO ONE, or be thankfull for what we've got.

Some people, honestly!

How many times did DVDV and Andersontry to replace Briers in 1999-2002 because he wasn't experienced enough. Nowe 10 years later we're saying that O'Brien hasn't got the experience to be the main playmaker. O'Brien is where Briers was 10-12 years ago. He's a real; talent and will be a worthy successor to Lee Briers when the time comes. There's been criticism of Myler on this threaf too. He hasn't played for weeks and yet his ability gets questioned even now. How many times does it have to be said before the penny drops with some People? Myler and Briers are completely different in their style of play. He have 9-10 first choice players out and still win a SL game, yet still people moan.

I was referring to this seasons plan aimed at the big prizes. Games like today are the price to pay I guess.

ISWT

THis. Well done Lefty, couldn't have put it better myself.

Myler, still not fit for the 17... great stuff

iswt?
yeah - I agree (have mentioned on other threads earlier), we played excellent stuff at wrong end of season last year. but, we got the monkey off our back re LL sheild


I don't know if you heard the CC draw on tues morn or not? but when Leigh were drawn out, the next team drawn were - SUPER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS - ........................................................................LEEDS - I thought we were champions by WINNING THE LEAGUE?????

i just don't get it..

we're doing ok, blooding youngsters, resting veterans for next week, getting 2 points albeit in a scrappy manner, the future's looking good, 3 trophies in 3 years, 3rd in the table, off field sucess as far as marketing (bigger turn over than wigan's) lottery growing every week, u 20's, u18's etc top of their leagues!
cheap bitter in the new corner!

so what's the effing problem... people have such short memories!

Very worrying. I've got a great idea, why don't we try resting Briers to get O'Brien more playing time. Are you with me?

Lucky to get the win today IMO. Salford controlled the first half yet somehow went in 12-10 behind we had a good 20min spell in 2nd half when we posted some points and took control. Think we lacked ideas in attack at times but with only 1 real playmaker in the team what can you expect. Positive we had 8(?) Home grown players in the side and still came out with the win. Thought Currie Riley and Hill stood out today for me.

Riley certainly did stand out! He has done well this season but was terrible today - probably the worst game I have seen him play in a long time.

A very patchy performance with only one real halfback playing but I actually thought Rhys Williams was our best outside back with O'Brien's kicking very good. Currie was immense, great defence and took his try well. Quite a few forwards did ok today too - Woody, Coops, Carvell and some great link up play from Waterhouse.

I thought Riley did well personally defence wise he was a little sloppy on 1 on 1's but he positioned himself well for kicks and helped to support the few breaks we made. Needs to improve his link into the line however but can't be easy when you have played wing majority of the year.

nice one lefty and nice one from the majority of wire fans who are positive and doom-mongerers (probably spelt wrong), £@%^ off
somewhere else. We've been blessed with 3 trophies in 3 seasons watching some of the best and entertaining rl I've ever seen from
any side. We've had a lot of bad luck with injuries, but come the end of the season, we'll hopefully have a fully fit and charged
set of forwards -Morley, Monaghan, Carvell, Benny, Harrison/Sol/Cooper, Grix, with massive potential in Waterhouse and all the
other players we've blooded so far. Myler and Briers will be back (still can't believe some of the idiots who slag Myler).
A back line blessed with Atkins, Bridge, Monaghan, Riley-who still finishes everytime despite his detractors who (probably reside
in the Myler is rubbish camp along with a few pie eaters). Plus Hodgson at FB who although aging is still class. It's a class
side with the the best coach in TS and the most vociferous fans when we all pull together to get that Fletcher End sound, which
has been replicated (despite the doom mongerers again) in the big games. i watched last year's challenge cup quarter v wigan the other
night all the way through and although we lost in the end; the first half was amazing and the atmosphere incredible- sounded
like at least 30,000. Even near the end when we had lost and the pie fans were singing "your not singing anymore" we all
started sing "oh warri warri" which blasted out of my tv-so proud to be wire. Let's just remember where we were and be
thankful that our club is in such great shape with so much to look forward to both in the near and distant future.

well said, although with very strange structure!

Cheers SW. I've had a few ciders so my apologies for the structure. I think it would be worse if I'd had none at all
in all honesty!

never apologize for drinking, that's my policy!

Cheers Sw. Now that's what i call a structured sentence!

next week is the acid test but its certainley not doom and gloom should we suffer the expected loss that some are spouting...next week will see some of the experienced players to the fold and if we lose we lose..then we get a break come semi final week to freshen our limbs...looking forward to august time when the real stuff begins...and a fully fit squad

Top post Lefty could`nt put it better myself mate .We seem to have some Champagne supernova fans these days

Quality post.

Hopefully we can do a Leeds of last year and concentrate on the big one. It would be great to go further in the cc but i think
it would mean so much more if we could do the elusive big one.

For those that remember it.

Cast your minds back to the last few days of Feb 1990.
We were drawn away to Bradford in the CC QF. No-one gave us a prayer. A ground where we rarely won. It was ####ing cold (I swear I saw a Polar bear walk past me with a Duffel coat on). Fast forward 22 years, and everything matches up again (apart from the day's temperature). Let's go on and win it, and the final too.

BELIEVE

Amazing post

Don't know who that's too, but wanted to get in on the act

Is that the game when we won 12-10 or something like that and in the semi, mark thomas gave the winning pass in another
close game v oldham.

stand up rocky turner kicked us to the semi..did`nt they delay the kick off cos of the thousands of wire fans stuck on motorway..got ed wet thru as well..but well worth it..thanks mr bob jacko for our try
think that was the night i met a bird called suzzanah,she now works on bbc breakfast,fit as a butchers
