FWIW i want us to beat Wigan and KR and i honestly think we will too.

Ive got a gut feeling that we will be at wembley this year

Also, Bridge and Monaghan aint doing to bad a job in Briers absence, Briers may struggle to get back in the team.

Surely we can cope with playing one game a week. Its not like we've got midweek UEFA cup ties to deal with.

Your not the only one. Hell KR away is no easy task at the minute though. We certainly have the ability to beat them with a full 17 and on current form.

To scrap the league campaign would be stupid considering we have a good run of form performance wise and making the semi finals in the play offs is not yet out of reach.

After seeing KR at the HJ and Murrayfield, I really dont think that KR are that good.

Certainly with a bit more discipline and patience we would have beaten them at murrayfield and I think we beat them quite comfortably at the hj considering we were playing with no confidence and were coming off the back of some terrible performances and results.

Wire are a different beast now, throw Morley, Louis Anderson and Briers back into the mix and barring any further injuries we have too much for any Hull KR team.

I wish I shared you optimism but two factors are that Hull KR are riding high in the league (2nd place) Wire are not even in the top 8!!! And Hull KR are at home.

Wire will need to be on top form and hope Hull KR aint to have a realistic chance.

I don't think Briers will struggle to get back in the team. In his two game absence we've lost to Hull KR and beaten an amateur side. Its obvious that Bridge plays best in the centres so just move him back there and Lee can play stand off.

Correct. Anyone who thinks that we are not a better team with Briers in it should seek medical help.

Exactly.

The fact that only LWF & Padders in the world, that think otherwise also helps you sleep easier at night.

If they told me it was night, I'd open the curtains to make sure.

We'll be twice as good when we've learnt to play without him.

And then have him Controlling half the plays instead of them all

Your wrong here JWP, I've never said such thing.

You will find that I've said he's an average player and that he doesn't warrant another contract, I've also said that his off the field activities are bad for the club and he certainly isn't the messiah that you all make out.
I have never said that the team are better without him on the field, it seems more of a physiological boost for the team than anything else but i think we would learn to cope without him.
