Very bad news for the club but much more importantly for Reynolds and of course Cator.

A lot of your posts have proven to be correct in the past I've noticed. You are either psychic or close to the club.

Reynolds was always a risk, certainly not worked out for him in the first season, hopefully come back stronger next season like alot of overseas players do.

We can replace both in the 17 without too much fuss but a few more injuries we are in trouble.

Really need a bit of luck, which we have had too much of this season.

I hope Connor stays at Full Back and if so a big chance for McNamara.

I think he will, certainly the next couple of games, if not I think we I'll see Shaul come in and him and Connor switch between 6 and 1 depending on if we are attacking or defending.

Whatever happens, Connor needs to be allowed the freedom when we attack.

I'm rooting for a Wigan win.

When you look at the rest of Wigan games they have a tough run in, plenty of other games to drop points in.

Our home game vs Wigan could be crucial if we manage to beat Cas and Leeds. I honestly wouldn't rule 4th place out.

Shame about Reynolds and Cator, but with others returning I think we can still finish with a bang, especially if Carlos, Connor and sneyd all hit form

Its terrible news for Cator and Reynolds and wish them both successful full and speedy recoveries. What has the club done to manage to not only get 2 serious Achilles injuries to players in the current squad this season but also 1 for a player at another club that we've signed for next season?

I would think BH will leave Connor at fullback and bring Ben McNamara in at 6 and then bring Shaui in on the bench to cover 9 and FB which again gives us options to be able to change things during a game if needed.

Think Shaul may go to stand off and he and Connor will swap roles in attack and defence, as per Saturday, Brett Hodgson hinted that Shaul has new “skills” since his return.

By the way, can this thread be renamed to “season re-galvanised”

Depends if we back-up tomorrow night.

I'd go with Mcnamara but if he can't replicate Reynolds taking the line on committing defenders then releasing Connor, I'd try Shaul in the role

Gutted to hear about Cator & Reynolds.

Hopefully this isn't the end of Grub and we can get him up and running for the start of next year.

Jordan Rankin is playing second grade at Paramatta, isn't there anyway we could bring him in until the end of the season?

He knows the club and the competition, he'd have no problem settling in.

I doubt he'd want the hassle of trying to get back into Australia for the sake of a few games.

Didn't he move back to Australia for family reasons. He's got a young kid now so can't Imagine that he'd want to move. Plus we don't have any quota spots for this season.

I always thought he looked better at full back than 6 anyway. Stick with Ben McNamara for now. Ryan Hampshire could be an option moving to next year as cover though

McNamara hasn't shown me that he's a Super League starting number 6 yet, and I don't think he's gonna show me that this season. So it comes down to how ambitious we are for this season, if we want to compete, then we need to replace Reynolds with a 6. The only other alternative is to move Connor there and Shaul to full back, but I really don't want to move Connor. One more injury in those pivots and we have nothing.

Wonder if Wigan are going to sack Lam before we meet next month,

Replaced by Wane?

204 minutes without a try.

Nailed on he's appointed the week before we play them

I feel for Adrian Lam, He's a good bloke. Fair play to him for that interview.

Isn’t the Assistant taking over, with Wane as DOR?

Yeah i thought it was Matty Peet getting the gig with O’Loughlin as assistant.

Think Peet has has followed a similar parh to Wane. Worked his way up from academy to first team

They are on a terrible run of form. Their remaining fixtures are tough and all loseable. I think they’ll miss out on the Play Offs.

Amazing when you consider they have the World’s Best Full Back!

There’s only you that keeps saying it. I’ve never seen any Wigan fan claim such a thing

Still a much better team than hull

It’s Wolf.
