How do you make that out, that's purely subjective, 2 points are hardly miles ahead and that's how it's judged. When generally sensible posters like you go into OTT pronouncements then I think we all need to calm down a bit.

Of course I may be with you come the end of this evening

Clearly, I wasn't referring to competition points and ultimately, these are all that matters in the final analysis.
However, having watched significantly more games than usual, I'm surprised that you disagree about where Trinity are at right now, compared to Huddersfield, KR, Leeds and Salford.
Of course, we could find some form and they all lose theirs or, they could all suffer some kind of similar injury crisis but, we are a million miles behind these clubs in terms of on field performance, attacking structure etc.
Hell, we cant even manage to get anyone in front of our HB when they are kicking the ball, which is just a symptom of the malaise and lack of organisation with in the side at this point in time.
We havent been this poor since JK's last season with us and our squad at that time cost just under a tenner.
Sorry Vasty but, it may be only 2 points but, the gap appears much wider.
Having said that, I'd be delighted to be eating my words at 10pm this evening, having watched us scrape a win or, utterly thrash Leeds

No way am I having a go at Crowther here, but why are we playing him out of position when we’ve brought in a proper 9 and have two sat at home? Then there’s Kelepi at prop again.

I would guess K Wood is injured ... Crowther on first for his defence ???? Tanginoa is a mystery given the props on the bench . Think injuries will hurt us more than the Leeds injuries will do them !

That’s what I’d think, I really don’t get why people think they know better than those who are with the players day in day out.

It’s like people thinking they can re-wire a house because they once wired a plug.

Wood was injured, is knocking on a bit and hasn’t shown any particular form. On his day spot on player but we don’t know what his current state is.

Crowther on the other hand may be fit and raring to go.

For heavens sake can we not second guess every decision and just cheer them on, that’s our job.

Finally, with Arona, Green, Battye and Fifita playing I think it’s fairly obvious that Tanginoa will not play exclusively as a prop.

Kyle is injured, sadly.

But it’s not is it, it’s just a team sheet not a game plan.

Because he's going for moving them around early on and then putting a really big bench on later.

I hope it works.

Yup, he's going to play Leeds up the middle, and considering how defensively weak our wingers I can see why.
