Looking at the teams you were up against at the start of the season, most realists, including a few of yourselves, would have picked London as the first winnable game. So points-wise, you're actually in credit. You've had 2 bad results after a very tough start, so why do you now question the coach who's put a team together that can compete against some of the competition's best sides? OK, his criticism of the 2 junior players after the last 2 defeats was pretty shocking man management, but aside from that, 2 weeks ago, everything on the field was rosy.

We have showed in the performances against Leeds, Wigan and Catalans that we can beat anyone in SL. The manner in defeat against Hull and London was a shambles and has indicated that the wheels have well and truly fell-off.

Re: Mr Millward : Thu Mar 21, 2013 10:11 pm  

How has it indicated the wheels have fallen off, we lost to Hull through handling errors & a interception, against London we had a bad second half is S$$t weather, lets see how the team goes before we all commit harry carry, we have seen it all before & we will see it again their is no quick fix to being skint unless we go down the rout of some of our competitors, if we win on Sunday the fans will all be cock a hoop again until we loose again, then the nooses will be back out, looking for some one to lynch

We were dry-rubbed 52 nil at Hull Frank by a Hull team that isn't breaking any pots. The weather against London isn't an excuse - same for both sides.

I'll admit to being as downhearted as anyone following the defeat to London but, as always time brings a bit of perspective.

Pre season many pundits were tipping London to be a decent side this year and have a decent crack at the top 8. Certainly they were fancied by most to finish above Cas. They've had a poor start to the season not unlike Cas, showing positive signs 1 week then seemingly taking 2 steps back the next.

Clearly, last week they took 2 steps forward whilst Cas took 2 steps back and that resulted in a narrow victory(don't be fooled by the final margin) in atrocious conditions that made the game something of a lottery.

Superleague this year is closer than ever. Look at Salford who narrowly lost to a Saints team last night who the week before put 50 on Wakey. Whilst some games will look more winnable than others, every game is losable unless the team is fully committed and 100% up for a performance on that given day.

Re: Mr Millward : Sat Mar 23, 2013 7:15 pm  

We have played well and were unlucky to loose to Wigan, at Hull their is no excuse, but London was a lottery it depended on who played the conditions better, we did that in the first half but the second half they let them selves down.

In a season we all know form is up and down you play your heart out and get piped in the last seconds, it's gutting!
forget about Hull it's a non event, London should have been 2 points, but we blew it , This weekend will tell us if were in a slump, because KR is the start of a masive 4 games in 2 weeks, & we need 4 points or maybe more to get the fans back on side.

Well as i feel i must watch with interest tomorrow and seek the answer to my questions at a hurried pace , this must not in any way go further than the game at rovers and must be heard in Fev .
