Problems with system, problems with the salary cap....don't see any Hudds, Stains, Leeds or Pies fans talking about this. I wonder why? We weren't good enough. It's done, build a loving bridge and get over it. We will be better next year with new signings and hopefully less injuries.

No league fixture against the Pies will ever be a dead rubber for me and I'm looking forward to it. And the others for that matter. It would be nice to put a dent in a few other team's hopes before the season is out and we will

I love it when we beat the Pies, it was the measure of how good our season was for 3 decades.
Never having a hope of winning ewt like this season was common place.

Let's be realistic, how many of us really thought we had a top 4 team before a ball was kicked this season?
I sure for one didn't, I peed enough of you off saying how poor our hb combo is and how lightweight our pack is all season.

What is frustrating and disheartening, is that when I'd became blindingly obvious, we were average, is the stubbornness from TS to address it.

Yup Rd he doesn't seem to be able to work out a game plan that works with the players we have now and seems happy to sit behind he let's them play what's infront of them, briers hodgeson and monas were cleaver enough to read the game n play what's infront of them

This current team needs more structure and set plays which we don't seem to have.

I don't believe that the players don't put the effort in I just don't think they are good enough. Also are our expectations too high?? Eg Roy asostasi what did we expect to get?? The Roy of ten years ago?? He does Ok not tearing up the super league but he has the fastest play the ball of any of our props so why not start him get the fast ptbs and get a roll on with Clark running from dummy before they have time to get defence set?

Our best games we've had players making easy yards from.running from.dummy for first few tackles this sends the opposition defence in array unable to get set n then we can play what's infront of us

I liked the bit where rubber duckie made this thread about him again.

And no its not got personal, so he will reply back to me, and no there isn't anything wrong with my Foe button.

Back slapper

I always back warrington to win. I always put them top of the league and I never back my team to lose.
Next year I'll do the same.

If you care to find it, you'll see a post where a predict leeds to win everything. But I'll still not put them on top of the league above us. Superstitious.

i was going to pull RD up on this line



Actually everyone has been banging on about our rubbish HB's and our lightweight pack.... He pee'd everyone off by banging on about Bridge and Ratchford all the time.

But then i thought 'nah, wont bother'

But you did. But that's okay.

I can discount leeds, they haven't finished top side I can remember!

The team is aged and staying in touch for play off rugby as been their format for years

im in agreement with you..never had and never will back against my team no matter how bad we are..even tho i do fancy a certain team to win the comp.id never back that team....not until we are out..

Nothing wrong with putting loyalties aside when it cones to money.Backed against us many times + won so no guilt from me.Lost a few times may I add.

When it comes to money I really bet on the other RL games. I will only better try scorer and of course Wire to win.
My biggest losing streak so far is betting on Brad Dwyer to score the last try. He is becoming very expensive to follow now.
The first scorer I often swap and change.

Dead rubber #1 Pies.
I'm hoping that we will give them everything with Biff.
What the hell if we get suspensions galore. It matters not a jot. No silverware but I still want to see some fireworks.

the only bet i do now is 2 lucky 15s all ht and ft.....our game i do opponents ht wire ft and draw ht wire ft...picked up last 7 weeks..this week will do sts ht hudds ft wigan ht wire ft hull ht leeds ft cats ht cas ft and on the other bet hudds ht sts ft draw ht wire ft leeds ht hull ft cas ht cats ft..may tinker with the perm a bit but thats the jist of the bet

Who have we got that can dish any biff? No one sufficiently nasty in our pack or side. Westwood perhaps. Maybe Roy if the biff coincides with the 900 seconds he is on the field.

I also do those bets. Warrington are constantly screwing me over though.

did me a favour v leigh..leigh ht wire ft..boom

We like Roy.

I had a holiday booking accu. My last leg was a banker.....

Ht wire ft wire v hull KR CC. 10/11.
A feckin Boom there an all.

I bet during the GF at 16-6 that Wigan would end up beating us in the second half. Just saw it coming sadly.

Won a fair whack too.

I was also resigned to that ending when I saw Lee Briers utterly shellshocked, packing down in the scrum as a backrower.
But I still couldn't bet against my own club.

That was, and probably always will be, the lowest ever point as a Wire fan (and there have been a few).

As soon as wigan scored following Monaghans injury I just knew that we were going to blow our best chance of winning the GF. Ratchfords injury simply rubber stamped the deal.

Was always on the cards that one,how people's thoughts of giving their hard earned income to a bookie based on loyalty,amuses me.
