While i would not say "crap" i think we have been poor and have been lucky, the other sides may have been poorer than us but that does not make us a good side.

I think we've won of the back of guts and determination (and a liitle skill) and i am worried it will fade.

In fact i think saturdays game will be a turning point in our season and if we lose that i will be worried.

My take on the season is that we have had a lucky streak, in that most of the teams we have played have been in the middle of a bad patch. The problem we have is that when we get high in the league, other teams realise they have to raise their game, and as many teams starting point of skill is higher than ours, we fall short.

A good performance on Saturday and put Wigan out of the cup and I'll be happy. We tend to go on losing streaks, rather than blips, so let's wait and see.

We need to arrange the Celtic game sharpish! Chance of a win there otherwise it's gonna be a long losing run now I fear.

Don't be daft thats the one I fear most, everyone is taking bets to see who will be the first team to loose to them

I think wev'e been good value for the wins and league position but Sundays game reminds us that we have a long way to go.

I still think we lack an X-factor in the pack, we have a very honest, hard working set of forwards but there's no Feka, Fasavalu, Solomona, Manu or Hock type who can break the opposition.

You can only play what's in front of you, and we have deserved our wins. There's just a worry that Bulls and Wigan will hit the straps at the wrong time for us.

Nah - we can do them - and we can do Wigan next week as well.

Keep the faith!

I definitely think we can/will beat Wigan in the cup.

IMO Noble outcoached Kear on Sunday!
Wigans tactic of going wide very early caught us out on Sunday but you can or should only suprise us once with that tactic.

I agree that Noble had it spot on - but I reckon if we had 'been up for it' we could have slowed them down the middle and therfore cut the supply of quick ball to the wing.

I still reckon that we should have had Bibb in the side. I really rate Snitch this season, but I prefer him in the back-row - unless we are genuinely short of front rowers. We lacked size / presence up front - although maybe that was Kears plan all along and he'll win the battle over 2 legs?
