Mossop is a second row, Tuson probably won't play until May.
There's also Neil Holland, but he won't play until June.

If you're talking for 2010 then I agree

Long term injuries is that?

And Im party talking next year, Coley's contract shouldnt be renewed.

And whats Ben Davies like? He's a prop isnt he?

How many times does Riddell go off on his own and we get penalised for a crossing or he gives a stupid pass and it just bounces off someone, his passing from dummy half is crap it is either to high or too low, he is too slow and his defence at best is weak. He doesn't use our props enough near the opposition's line he does not use Hock or any of our 2nd rowers running on at angles and he loves giving stupid balls to Fielden and O' Carroll which just allow them to get smashed. He also come with this almight infield kicking game???? Not seen that either.
Now you tell me how we should play for Piggy?

Riddell goes off one his own expecting runners. The team need to understand his game in offence and not et done for crossing.

You get penilised for crossing when the players are not organised.

Is this Riddells fault?

IF that happened time after time, you would have a point.

According to jjb10 it does.

There are problems at Wigan and Nobles got a big job on. All im saying is personally i think Riddell is a class player with a good rugby brain.

He's no Barrett but we need to get together as a team and get back to basics.

I'm afraid so.

Ben is a good young prop, but I don't tyhink he'll be ready for first team for at least two to three years.

You're welcome to your point of view matey, we all are, its part of the fun of being a fan. For me, Piggy isn't a solution to our on field problems, hes part of them.

Must admit to being disappointed with Riddell thus far.

I thought his passing game would be much better than Higham's, and he'd get the forwards running onto flat passes so that we'd be over the gain line almost immediately.

As it is, Riddell is taking an age to get the pass away, he's passing it 3 metres backwards, the forwards are taking it standing still and the defenders are on them almost immediately and we're making no yards at all.

Very poor indeed from the whole team.
