we need a stand off for next year

we have Makkali Aizue on the way

luke Branaghan could be on the way as well.

we should have won the league with the position we were in a month to 6 weeks ago.

i am nervous i am really nervous mainly about yourselves Widnes.

if we meet before the final. we know to see a pact North Stand and that makes me nervous. plus your a talented side. plus thackery is playing better than any other back in either of our 2 sides.

i am nervous, which is why i am praying we dont need to face you till the final.

To be honest I dont think we will got a franchise anyway, the only way we will get in is if we win the next two GF's and the next NRC. I reckon it will be Fax and Barrow in the final. I have a feeling we have left ourselves with too much to do this year.

I know.

What I'm saying is that if you did You'd think differently about ticking boxes. There's also no reason to take some moral high ground and stand there finger wagging at the concept.

there would always be some people that may think that ticking boxes may make a difference.

it might not be on the list for the boxes to be ticked but you can guarentee that the only thing the RFL will be bothered with will be the location.

It's true. So true. In the quest for the holy grail, you've lost sight of what the game is all about.

No I haven't. It doesn't mean I've lost sight of anything. It doesn't mean I don't want to see great RL or see us win Grand Finals. But the whole ethos of RL as a competition has changed. Sport is also about progression and endevouring to be the best. Unfortunately, in this league, you have to tick a f*****g stupid box before you can even try. Therefore it's important for a club with ambition to do so. Our reaction is a sort of realpolitik.

I don't agree with what this tw*t has done, but I have no choice but to deal with the reality.
