Yep. Randall was another never adequately replaced. Went from having an NRL standard hooker to Josh Wood who tried hard bless him but was a mile away ability wise.

Totally agree about the hooking role, Randall was never replaced adequately, him and Wood complimented each other very well and made a very good pair and none of the people we have had at hooker since they left are anywhere near as good although I would like to see more of Bowes because he does have potential.

ANGRY that we are bringing loan 6, and winger ,and swap a star of the future for a 3 choice fullback..Do not no who made the call to get rid of Hampshire never will, but none of the players we have brought in are fit to tie is shoelaces .And he could play at 1,6 ,and wing .And far better than any 6 at the club

I agree 100%. Very short sighted decision.

Swapping Hall for Dagger was a brain dead decision.

Getting rid of Hampshire and signing Gaskill was a brain dead decision

Signing Lineham on a 3 year deal was a brain dead decision

Signing on over the hill Kiwi and using a quora spot was a brain dead decision

There's more but it's easy to see the pattern of rank stupidity

What difference would that have made. He's injured.

He may not have been if he'd been at wakey. It's a stupid argument

You are correct. It is a stupid argument.

Proctor and Atoni both rewarded with a game today. Clearly, we are a busted flush. Not a clue in coaching or management.
Yes, ANGRY.

I'm not angry, I'm just no longer bothered.

For the first 7/8 games I’d get jokey texts off mates who support other teams giving me stick. For the last 2 games nothing. It’s like The Simpson episode where Homer is battering that burglar at Krusty burger and a kid shouts “stop….stop, he’s already dead”

Applegarth said post match that Dagger had to pull out before kick off and he had to move Liam Kaye to fulback. He said that Liam made a good job of it so why didn't we do that when Max got injured instead of swapping Corey Hall. The mind boggles.

He did do that.

Yes, for one game and then we gave away our best young player.
The phrase about wheels coming off is bang on the money and were now surrounded, with nowhere to go.

Is there a plan B. How many games do we have to lose before we change something or, are we really prepared to finish the season with 0/27

Given the lack of movement from the board with no signs of any improvement in our play thus far, I think we have.

The only way things will change is if Mash walks, but he doesn't talk or act like someone under pressure.

Was it carter or Applegarth that said if we didn’t do the Hall deal then we’d risk not winning a game without a genuine fullback. Unfortunately we are and were caught between a rock and a hard place. Hall would be leaving at the end of the year if we went down, and we won’t possibly win a game with Dagger at 1. What a terrible state we are in.

Maybe the time has finally come to give Lineham's mannequin, love doll, whatever she is, the coaching job.......

Does anyone know what Jowitt's actual injury is? Does anyone think he'll ever play for us again?

No I don't, but was thinking this only yesterday. Why do we have to settle for "a freak injury during captains run, something with the foot / ankle" and not what the ACTUAL injury is? Would it harm them to tell us what is going on? I am genuinely interested for one, and is it not just courtesy to the fans to keep them updated?

Applegarth would only constantly say it wrong like he does with Gaskell's pectoral injury.

It was the same with Lynne earlier and when asked about Crowther he said he did not want to go into his injury, the only thing I can think of is it might have something to do with HIA's.
