Anybody remember 2015????

we got the 2 !! that is the main thing ...
fifta again almost cost us the game like he did against Warrington last year.
you are wining by 6 with 1 min to go!! why o why are you struggling to get up and play the ball quickly ! just get up and play it slowly so you don't make mistake- he has a target in his back now from the refs because he plays the ball like that everytime! I think he may of gave 6 pens away on Friday.
I was impressed with Pauli Pauli fitness he will be better as season goes on......will he be out you think though for a while with a broken nose?

2 points and 2 from 2 !! got to love it.

miller mom for me

5 in 2 games ftr. Yes, he does give pens but some are calculated others aren't. Also with the number of minutes we get out him in the middle, it's no surprise. Personally, I like the way Fifita gets up and plays the ball as he quick as he can, it's usually off a big carry and with at least 3 defenders on him, so getting up quick will leave holes in the opposition defense & it generally gets us on the front foot far more than not. Better players than him have been pulled for that ateotd.

Agree though on Pauli, he will get better and better as the season goes on and his fitness improves and he gets used to playing over here. As Wood said he came into pre-season the most unfit as he was still overcoming his leg injury and also arrived late. You can see what he's gonna bring when he's up to speed. He's already just behind Fifta on average gain at nearly 7.50 meters per carry. In warmer weather and another few games under his belt, I expect that to rise, along with his minutes and carries.

Yep, please don't remind us. We won the first 2 and that was practically it for the season.

I know we shouldn't get carried away but surely MC you're not saying that could happen again?



On a wider point grinding out those ugly wins when you're not at your best is just as important as putting 40 on a team and looking a million dollars ateotd.

That's a crazy statement - no other ref would have given that penalty; can hardly blame Big Dave for Mr Child's selective pedantry.

You sir are a killjoy


Cant we just enjoy the ride, i'll even put up with the nose bleed.

My point exactly. Enjoy the ride. Instead of nit picking over errors, enjoy rocky’s Kick to milky. Or grix’s cover tackle!! We are never going to be perfect. But the focus is always on the bits that go wrong

We need something to talk about!

My assessment of life is always that you judge your life on what your worries are. Personally, I'm enjoying the fact that the height of our debate is whether we should have won by more.

I couldn't agree more; as I said straight after the game - Miller's try was a peach, and Grix probably saved the game with that ridiculous 'tackle' - and I use the word tackle in it's broadest possible sense, since what he really did was disregard his own physical wellbeing for the sake of saving a try. Not many FB's in SL would have pulled that off.

We're not the well oiled machine that this team has the capability to become yet - but having watched all the televised games thus far, I don't think any team is; players have had a long lay-off, and adjusting to the speed and intensity of week in/week out SL games takes some time - particularly in the crappy conditions that the opening few months serve up.

On that note, Saints look like they could be the real deal this season; I'd love to know what they feed Roby - he's like the Duracell bunny.

And your vendetta continues. Against Warrington he did cost us but on Friday there was sod all difference between his play the ball and every other play the ball that evening.

If a player cocks up then fine but he didn't on this occasion it was an unbelievably pedantic decision and typical of the attention seekers who ref our games.
