Were in desperate need of two big hard running props to take the pressure off Trindall and Fats.The pack isnt effective enough in making metres at the moment. Teare, Wright, Jacko are not the answer to this problem. In regard to duffy im not saying hes a world beater but lets face it hes playing behind a poor pack.Totally agree about Lebbon too, he should have got a chance today.

Totally  agree.  We  need  2  forwards  who  run  at  pace  and  make  good  yardage.  Somebody  like  Leigh's  N.10  or  a  Frank  Watene  from  Fax.  Problem  is  were  halfway  through  the  season  and  all  the  good  players  are  snapped  up  but  then  again  we  brought  in  Leafe  at  the  midway  stage.

Maybe  we  should  look  down  under  and  see  whats  available. Stan  Martin  who  works  with  junior  players  might  have  a  few  contacts.  If  we  beat Fax  next  week  then finance  shouldn't  be  a  problem  as  getting  through  to  a  final  with  a  share  of  gate  receipts, SKY money  and prize money  should  be  enough  to bring  in  a  couple  of  players.

Basically  if  we  don't  do  something  then  were  going  to  be  way  behind  Cas,  Widnes  and  Leigh.  Fax  could  also  overtake  us  meaning  5th  place  more  realistic.  Crowds  will  drop  meaning  less  money  for  decent  players.  The  knock  on  effect  could  be  catastrophic  for  the  club.  Bring  in  the  right  players  might  just  give  us  a  chance........What  have  we  got  to  lose !!!!!!!!

You mean get rid of Trindall? I do not think anyone in there right mind would do that. If trindall went you could kiss the season goodbye, by the way i see it! he Knows the players and they respect him.
Another front row forward is needed, they do not need replacing!
I am still trying to work out what you mean as it does not make any sense from a knowledge of the game point of view.
