Were all connected to the club, we go and support them every week.

It’s about balance mate. I’ve certainly got nothing against you, I don’t even know you. However, I have never seen anything but negativity in any of your posts and it gets tiresome.

It’s February and we have 4 points from 6. We have shown glimpses of great rugby despite disruption to our spine. We have been ver solid in defence too. Is it perfect? Not by a long way but there is reason to be optimistic. You either don’t understand rugby league, you’re a wind up merchant or you just refuse to see it he positives.

+1 I'm bloody sick of him as well bloody armchair supporters

Harry Smith another positive game, needs looking after in defence but he will improve in that department. Do worry about have a left footed kicker on the right though.



French has to stay full back. Hardaker was poor in attack at fullback last year (in block plays) and french looks like he’s going to score every time he gets the ball.



Burgess just terrible again, Marshall is showing him every week. Manfredi on the right, Marshall on the left as soon as he’s fit.



Bullock went really well.

Manfredi was speaking in the fan zone before the game. If he comes through this weeks reserve game he’ll be up for selection next week.

If that’s a swipe at me for the other post a few dts Ill just clarify.



I never said he WAS a 6, it was in response to rogues asking why people ‘think’ he’s a 6

Wane out

To clear up my ‘French to HB’ calls;



I, like many others, believe he is the best FB in the league right now but I also think we as a team look far more dangerous when he is pairing up with Jax in the halves. I also think Zak would be outstanding playing off French coming from FB like ST used to do or even Zak himself at Cas. Perhaps I’m wrong, and if I am it’s not below me to admit as such.

There were some positives to tonight as others have said. Smith in the halves looked very promising. Both Bullock and Clark easily justified their selections and French has that little bit of magic and spark. Hastings also looked better and was looking to try things. Some nice tries scored when they tired.



However anyone who was happy with that first half and in particular the first 20 is on crack. I lost count of how many time’s on the third tackle we played the inside ball to a forward who was going nowhere. The next play was so easy to defend as they knew it was going to be an attempt to move it wide. It was awful.



The other negative was the defence. They just stood off and watched half the time. Again. No press at all. I think the low point was when they had an attack on their left and one of our players puts in a tackle to stop the move but the rest just stood and watched which slowed their player to wrestle free and get rid of the ball.



If we play like that v Hull the game will be gone in the first 20 minutes.



I also can’t comment without mentioning the ref. Thought he was very poor. They were offside for their first try and the second was a forward pass.

It's those formulaic sets we need to get rid of. You can visualise exactly how it's going to go and it's a shock when we do anything different. Two to three one out carries from the middle men, an inside ball to a 2nd row and then a meaningless shift play wide.

O'Loughlin in hospital with an eye injury, not good according to Lam, would imagine he'll be struggling to make next week.

Let’s hope it’s not as serious as it sounds!

It's says Warburton's bread on the back of a Wigan/Leigh bus...you try buying a loaf on one.

Something to ponder...from both wins Vs Wire and Toronto...there was no fat lady until both teams were down to 12/11 men.

So the moral of the story is teams with Wolves/Wolfs in their names should have better discipline.

22-10 before the yellow card?

And would have most likely been 26-10 had O'Loughlin not been fouled.

We can only beat sides known as wolfs especially those that haven't won league titles this century?

Well we found a bit of mojo during those last twenty minutes. That will have done us done good, we are nowhere near there yet, plenty of improvement in us and will need to be on our game next week against to Hull.



Positives



French and Hastings starting to come together.

Harry Smith is looking like a great prospect.

Farrell had a great game, that inside pass to French wow!

Burgess try will him bundles of confidence, just as Manfredi comes back too (keep him on his toes).

Clubb did 25 minutes tonight.

Bullock made some massive metres.



Did Marshall see any ball tonight BTW.

Hope the person who collapsed in the East Stand just before the start of the game was okay, didn't look good.

Russels try should have been ruled out for Leuteles barge and the other try came off a forward pass. The Burgess lost ball near own line was a rip out with 3 in tackle. Umpteen wrong calls and vast majority going Toronto's way. I think Wigan where worthy of a much bigger winning margin and lots of improvement probable Wouldn't stress yet.

You can't post pro Wigan stuff on here mate. Not allowed.

Where possibly he will be playing, the moment Gildart returns and Hardacre moves to his proper position of full back!

Bibby will be the one under pressure when Gildart comes back, nice try but wrong once again.

Correct, only negative and critical one's
