We haven't got any really important games now until September.

Thursday's game is simply about winning and restoring a bit of confidence. I'm confident we'll win our next 2 games fairly comfortably even with our dodgy form.

We will beat London.

I'm not so sure on the bulls game. They beat Catalan who are in good form.

I'm no longer confident about winning any games.

I'd like to know how we got to looking like the disorganised rabble on display at Headingley from the team that rocked up at the Halliwell Jones a couple of months back. Really, really disappointing.

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.
Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.

We,ve had over 5 years now of bad luck with longish term injuries, we don,t get other teams suffering like this year on year.
Is it down to bad conditioning, unable to play tough, Amor and Walsh have probably had more injuries in the last 2 months than all of last year. Nearly every first 17 player has been injured this season so far, its very difficult to compete with an unsettled team.

Things like Amors injury is just unavoidable, but i am starting to raise more and more questions about our conditioning and physio team (and more generally the backroom staff) - brown has come under fire recently, but he does seem to be let down by his backroom staff. When you look at the condition of our players, we seem to be constantly facing an uphill battle against the likes of Wigan and Leeds. Whether it's more backroom staff needed, linking up with a sports science university like Leeds, or an entire rethink of how we condition our players, I feel like something needs to change.

We haven't seemed to be capable of competing physically since Apollo left, and are getting more and more injuries. Not just niggles, but that's now 4 senior players out long term from the last few weeks.

I questioned this last year when we had an horrendous injury crisis just after a couple of games which we never really recovered going into the play offs.
Look at Mose who doesn,t look as though he is being conditioned to be that tough impact player that played in the NRL and world cup, worse than that was Josh Perry the backroom staff never got him fit for more than 2 games,walmsley and Percival are getting injury prone.
Is it possible that our lack of intensity means we are receiving more impact on our player in both attack and defence, our line speed is very poor meaning they are getting hit with momentum is it this that is causing injury.

Watch LMS have a blinder against poor London, now.

I assume well see Savelio get another run out. I would try and get him 1st team ready for the playoffs.

We need to sort out the 6 shirt. Wheeler will never be fit - EVER. Wilkin and Hohaia are too limited, but chaninging it every week is perhaps the biggest problem.
Get Charnock playing. We've seen that he's looked physically capable and he's been almost selected so many tyimes they must think he's alright.

Wilkin can get back in the pack and Hohaia to the bench as an interchange hooker - these two moves would see the workload on Robes reduced significantly, and we may see his spark return.
