I agree with most of what as already been said. A few weeks back when i said we look more like fighting relegation than getting in the playoffs well nothing i have seen since as changed my mind. I see Dewsbury and Whitehaven as the most likely as things stand to be at the bottom and us just slightly better. It will help when we get Douglass O'brien and Eden back but like as been said Eden is injury prone so how many games we get out of him will be interesting. I do not know if anyone as heard anything regarding Crooks injury situation i was told he needs a op and will miss the rest of the season if true that will be a big blow with him being our only centre.A mistake i think the board made last year when Grix said he was leaving was asking him which of the current players should stay or go. This is not me having a go at Simon he was asked for his opinion and gave it even if i disagree with it. It was up to the board to leave it to Finn who they knew was going to be the next coach pretty quickly to make these calls. If he would of made the same decisions then this years squad is on him which he as already stated that even with our first choice front row missing that he would back our pack against any in the league, and when asked about new signings he backs the players already at the club. So for me we are in a mess can we afford to bring new players in that we desperately need and at the same time can we afford not to. One positive note i was just 400 numbers short on the golden gamble getting closer every home game happy days.
