Meaningless result from a meaningless game.

I am not in the slightest bit concerned. In actual fact it's helped us as surely Wane must now realise that we need a natural halfback, and switch Lockers to his natural position.

And, the youngsters know how much harder they need to work if they expect to be succesful at this level....

Thats correct, both sides were poor. But one team had spirit. People moaning it was a conspiracy is ridiculous when you look at the fact.

Cheered myself up reading your board as well

You should start worrying about Saints and Cats buddy boy....

No sam and wigan collapse

It was Tommy L who we missed more than anyone.

Zeppelin or blimp, a dirigible by any other name would smell as crap. (Shakespeare, Super League XVII act 19.)





Rock 'n' Roll.

Sam never played at widnes away wigan lose

Sam never played last night wigan lose

Its the same at wire with Briers they run the games and can pull you out the mire

Leuluai never played in these games either..... We have missed Leuluai far more than Sam imo in terms of our structure and attack.

Various other regular first teamers were missing from both these games and things like injuries and sending offs have occurred which has disrupted the team badly for example McIlorum being sent off last night and Goulding going off injured early in both games. Also in these games we still scored 36 points and 22 points so still scored enough points to win anyway, stupid mistakes and errors cost us as much as any one player missing. This all may not fit in with your troll but it is the case.

Pretty sure Tommy didn't play in that Widnes game either...

Tommy was the "most" missed player throughout the game but let's not kid ourselves that we didn't miss Sam. He's pretty much the only player we've got who can create something from nothing and turn a close game like that in our favour. We are having a torrid time with injuries and really need to get some bodies back!

Just watched the Salford v Wire game, and that's cheered me up a lot, not just because of Wire being even worse than us, but Matty Smith's performance (if he is indeed coming here).

Looked good, and if people here though we were bad, Dire lived up to there name...

Wire had 8 players out wigan had 2 out thats the difference plus we was away from home and you was in your pie dome.

Leuluai
Tomkins
Lima
Richards
Hansen
Prescott
Tuson

All would play the majority of games, Goulding went off after 10-15 minutes. Funny way of counting to 2 in Wireland.

2 out ?

And with all those extra fingers too!!!!!

Apaert from the real number we had out, as already mentioned, a lot of yours weren't injured but dropped/rested:

It's the loss of Leuluai and not having a replacement to step in. We've had to shift our 13 (and pivot) to 6, and shift a 2nd rower to 13 (one who can't act as a pivot). We got away with it against Wakefield because a) they're rubbish (so are Bradford to be fair), b) we didn't drop the ball every other set and c) Sam Tomkins is a rugby genius.

I haven't seen one flowing move that leads to an overlap since Leuluai broke his leg. We've simply lost that option at the moment. We need to get it back or we won't win the League/Challenge Cup/Grand Final.

What's with the ridiculous camera angle?

WANE OUT!!!!!!

I think the elbows from Elima will be the defence if he goes to the beak on Tuesday.
