Catalans are 4pts ahead, Huddersfield and Hull 2pts ahead, it's not beyond the realms of possibility. It'd be quite amazing really, because we've been poor this year yet remain so close to them.

Those clubs are always capable of losing a few, particularly Huddersfield (Especially given their coaching change) and Catalans. When you look at it, it's certainly not impossible, but it would require us to step up our performances, as I don't see this side winning many away from LP.

We will probably have a clearer picture in the next 4 games. We have had our difficult period, whilst teams above us are going into there,s now.
It wouldn,t suprise me that we would have to win our last game which is away to Wigan to get the top four. With the possibilty of having to beat Wigan twice again to get to the Grand Final, we just don,t have the players, coach or most important the will to achieve this ............... uless someone believes in miracles.

Disappointed that we couldn't get both points, but great goal line defence from your guys. I can't recall a game with so many goal line drop outs. We put you under loads of pressure and probably should have won but full marks to your boys for getting some reward.

You say that but under Rush we've gone to Leeds and Warrington and won. The only team we've lost to is Wigan, so under Rush our overall record is pretty good. I'm not for one second saying we're an impressive side this season,l but those 3 above us aren't either, they're massively inconsistent and that gives us a chance.

Giants fan are probably best placed to say why they've begun to falter. But none of the reasons offered up by yourself are the reason IMO. I don't believe Brown's tactics have been "figured out" although if they have, you'd best hope he comes up with something different for you guy's next year.I certainly don't believe the players are lacking in motivation either. They play for themselves and for honors. If anything one would think they'd wish to send Brown off in the best possible way, it's not as if uncertainty is hanging over the club in any respect. They look pretty injury free to me also at present.

I honestly can't say what it is. But I'd hazard a guess that what ever it is Brown doesn't seem to be able to either identify it or curb it. As it keeps on happening season after season.

I forgot to add: perhaps the players just aren't good enough.

Re: Uh Oh : Sun Jun 03, 2012 9:56 pm  

Gaskell came on for about 20 minutes.

We had virtually Zero ball during that time and any we had was in our own half so the lad had no chance to show us anything. I'm not even sure where he was supposed to be playing.

I get the impression hee was there as a token to appease the ,saints Fans a fake "we are listening"
