Where has anyone said green is indispensable? Plenty saying he is better than fash, which he is

Like others on here I'm puzzled with the situation with Jake. Playing at right centre, he and Ratu were up there with the best in the league. Carlos to my knowledge has always played on the left and with Josh proving his worth in the second row, those three ought to be put where they give most value. Kelly and Sneyd go without saying. Bureto needs to up his game with more outside backs joining us next year or he'll be spending more time in the reserves. That said, and even without our star men shining, we're still 3rd in the league with two very winnable games coming up.

So most of them [iweren't[/i kids then. As many over 30 as under 25.

I thought Greeny went ok last night, what really disappointed me was when Westy broke through, Greeny was in support, but no backs.

You do know the offside rule don’t you? He was at least 3 meters offside

Other results could make some big differences to those in and around us this weekend. Hopefully Rovers beat Cas, but if they don't, and Catalans beat Wire we have 3 teams behind us on 26 points to our 28. One of us will miss out.

It won’t be FC.

It could be. I think Catalans last 5 games include the bottom 4 or something like that. Wigan are improving and Powell's told his lot to go unbeaten now. Some will benefit from getting Saints/Wire either side of Wembley. We still have to play Saints. Miles off being a certainty IMO.

We’ll make the play offs in 3rd. BEHAVE.

It's arrogance and presumption to assume we'll be in the top 5. 10 points up for grabs still and we have an awful points difference. Of course I hope we'll make it but it's far from secure.

I’m not sure it’s arrogance, saints aside, we shouldn’t fear anyone with a fit squad. Agree with your earlier post, I think if we’d of had 2 of the 4 players available for the Wigan game, would of made a big difference to our pack and probably won us the game. Paea and manu a big loss

One thing's for sure, whatever the quality, this season has been a success from a competition perspective (apart from Saints battering everyone). 5 rounds to go and there are still 6 (arguably 7) in competition for the top 5, and 5 in the mix for relegation.

We were 5th after the all knowing played 9 games mark
Just saying.....

On paper looks a good comp, but look at that tonight, 44-0 or whatever it was, that’s not entertaining, but makes the league table look competitive, been to much of that this season

I agree. Got in at half time of last night's game. Switched it on, saw the score and switched straight off again.

There's no fun in watching games as a neutral that are lopsided like that.

Yet the previous round Huddersfield v Rovers in similar league positions was very tightly contested with an exciting finish. Every round will have close games like ours and mismatches on the night.

They've got to learn to catch and pass first!

Just have to watch both FB's tonight to see what we are missing at FB.

Beginning to come round to your opinion of Jamie Shaul at Full back.
Still think he would make a good 9.
He does the job occasionally anyway at acting half.Could develop into a real game changer in that position with his pace off the mark.
If we have this big tough pack next season he doesnt have to be a tackle machine like Houghton.
I like Connor at right centre but move him to full back would solve the Centre problem we will have next season

Agree Shaul is holding you guys back, very one dimensional and easy to defend against. All the good attacking teams nowadays have the half back playing fullback, setting up wingers for fun. Tomkins, Ratchford, Coote, Hardaker etc, even Luke Dorn back in the day.

Your two monsters on the wing would have a field day with better service, give them early ball and one on ones against opposing wingers.

Shaul obviously has talent, not saying hes a bad player, would be a super league club, lower end though. Not on with trophy winning ambitions like FC.

Id stick Jake Connor at full back, what a player he is. Just need him on the ball, in space, as much as poss!

that's the stupidity today of playing half backs at fb.not big enough.tompkins will never be a fb while hes got a hole in his a,,rse.he got found out big time in aussie,came running back to the uk with his tail between his legs.i

I think most uk backs do in the nrl. Callum Watkins debut!!!! Ouch, he’ll be back in no time

shaul given the right service is as good as any fb.until we get one or two ball playing forewards in the side he wont shine. I still remember the great ball he got from watts in 2016 in the second half at wigan.he ended up scoring and making a total mug of Tompkins.

a.) It's Tomkins, he's literally been at top level rugby league for 10 years, also has a high profile brother with the same name. Learn to spell.

b.) That might be the worst take I've ever read on RL Fans.

Come on here for a decent rugby debate with a great knowledgeable set of fans and get greeted with this.

Tompkins was a flop in the nrl .end of
