Sorry Mrs B but you are mistaken. Wishing is not the same as hoping. I would have expected you to know that. Still let’s not accuracy get in the way of point scoring.

A little layer of micro aggression on top, perhaps a subtle manifestation of your discomfort in the present and yearning, still, after all these decades, for a different future. All we have is now Keith.. The burning coal of antagonism you hold, looking to lob at poor Hull FC, is burning your hand. Time for some introspection perhaps.

He'd be a start for sure ,Add a big second row in there also .

What's this obsession with Big? Is big the way to go in the modern game?

Watching James Graham interviewing George Burgess in his latest YouTube interview, George mentions that this new six again rule is killing the big guys and this isn't the game for them any longer.

I think fit, mobile, athletic forwards are the future over size.

so warrington have been doing undersized athletic forwards for years, and we've been bullied. a lot of our fans have lauded your pack, whenever you were on sky and satae and sao had a good game, except when you've been getting skittled with the same players.

i dont know if there's a right or wrong method, but i know we've got big bodies up front now and seem a million miles better than at any point since 2013. and that was smith recruiting props that aren't as big.

pressed submit too soon

HOWEVER

having big men doesnt mean sod all if they're not prepared to put a shift in.

I hope you are right, it ruins the game. I know some teams are expert at milking the rule but the game was already fast enough, blatant holding down should still be penalised, but some players are wriggling and kicking before the tackle is completed. I'd like to see that penalised as much as the other way but it won't happen.

It needs to go for me, worst part about the rule imo is that there’s no time to question what it is you’ve done. You can’t correct things that way & it leaves teams guessing.
