Unchanged

Looked a lot more enthusiastic tonight, nice to see.
Sam T needs to play against Leeds every week, by a country mile his best performance since his return.
Clubb outstanding effort again.

I wish I was convinced but Im not. Better attitude certainly but the attack is stuttering and predictable.

Powell is not working as an impact hooker. I would drop him and Wells next week for Joel and Faz, assuming they are fit.

Mcilorum, Gildart and Clubb were very good.

A win yes so well done but I found myself wondering tonight when we last beat a 'good' team. March maybe, February even? I hope we bring it all together at the right time like we have done previously but there's a danger the Super 8s will not be pleasant for us.

With reference to the super 8s starting on zero,even sky made reference to last night being a dead rubber on their website!Bit embarrassing really,it's not the first year of this format.
The way the league table could look at the end of the weekend really throws us amongst it but I think we will probably need to win 6 or maybe even 7 of our remaining games and it's not going to happen,even the ever optimist Phil Clark doesn't see us making top 4.
Next week looks a whole lot better than a few weeks ago,Salford on a slide (3 defeats in a row) and apparently shocking yesterday, got to fancy our chances now.

On another note why did Williams hand over the kicking duties?he missed 3 fairly tough kicks by whiskers (one hit the post). He really only missed one easy conversion.
It seems his confidence goes after a missed kick or two but I see the makings of a good kicker in him and thought he was set to run with the duties from now on.

I thought that was strange too, especially when the one Powell took was a sitter.
