No positives. This year has been totally wasted, if we'd started it in C1 like everyone wanted and knew we should, we'd have had a passably pleasant season.
The damage done by this debacle of a season will instead inevitably hit us hard.
Even if they did change the league structure so we stayed in the Champ., we are simply not equipped for it, and won't be next season either.
Starting in C1 next season will be a hard road but sadly that is the level we are, not for lack of effort, and not because of lack of potential, some very promising players, but because as a team with shortages and injuries everywhere we are simply not equipped to cope at this level. Maybe with a proper pack leader and a proper enforcer things would be different, but as it is, we are easy meat. We are frankly unlikely to win another game now, having lost Oledzki & Co., and the sooner this shambolic season ends, the better. But it will be very hard next year, and it had absolutely no need to be, had we done it this year the vide would be positive.
So yet again, shafted by the RFL for their own convenience. They have NO excuse for not allowing what was a brand new club to start as a brand new club in C1. Shame on them.
