Good match report and he's bang on with the weakness in the squad. http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/l ... iclepage=1

smithy usually is. over the last couple of years he's started to tell it like it is, instead of cowtowing to the CEO. i just hope it's a temporary blip, but i feel there are 2 or 3 players simply not good enough for this level and 3 or 4 not pulling their weight or waiting for their contract to end.

Sure. A back rower to replace JJB or Lauitiiti is what we need. That'll fix everything

So we need a faster water carrier? Is that it?

Eastwood was "signed" because he was an available player of the right quality compared to cost.

We look shattered to me amongst other things, the first few wins of the season papered over some big cracks for me and they've now come to surface. Perhaps it's also too many games over the last 2 years and there's a reason why no team has won SL 3 times in a row... it's just too many games ?

Eastwood was signed as he's an good international player who would greatly add to the squad. It's not about relacing JJB or Ali, it's a long season, you must have a strong in depth pack and squad.
