Would rather Roberts plays some part against Widnes, not saints we really need our strongest team, and no silly errors least with sammut, walker and whitehead all missing we should at least stop making silly errors and missing tackles.



Would like something like that



EDIT: didnt realise we where missing Foster also

I'd be tempted to start Langley at 13 this weekend, just to improve the defence. When we need to change things up, Bateman can come on at 13, or move Donno to 13



Kearney to stay at full back for me, this should improve the attack into the backs. If he's in the middle, we will never attempt to use Lulia or Blythe



Looking at the squad, this is not a poor side, we just need to minimise the errors and keep our discipline!

I'd rather give Roberts his debut this week in a match where the odds are massivley stacked against us. Saints are on fire atm. Widnes is more of a must win in my eyes and we can't afford to give young players their debut then. Plus it's cup weekend next week so we may get one or two back the week after against Widnes.

And widnes are played wigan so thats a bonus for us

Really:

1 win in 8?

I mean't the fact that they have got a lot of injuries (getting players back though) and are still battling with the bigger sides. Performance wise they are on fire or have you not watched/listened to their previous few games?

Edited for accuracy.



Now they know how we felt when we first got onto the greasy pole. They will find it hard to stop the slide, and that's regardless of whether they win or lose to us.



And no, performance wise I think they are comparable to us.

I tipped saints to be a front runner this season, how wrong was I.



They are in the same boat as us 1 win in 7 but they can score more points, which our defence will need to stop. Sammut is a big loss but we rely too much on him and when he makes a mistake our heads go down, without him Gale may be more a of leader and be able to organise.

This is the best effort to justify a stupid comment I have ever seen!! lol In fact, i'll give you a like for that!



I agree with FA, they are in a bigger rut than us, and there will be more pressure on them to perform. Not sure if Lomax will play, I think the result will depend on him. Bulls need to play out their sets and stop trying to score on every play.

Need to build pressure, and try and get repeat sets in their half, rush the play and force an error we will have to be on fire to get a result, as i fear Lomax will be playing.



Instead of panicking when we get to the 5th tackle and cant score.

Agree with that, back to basics, and no penalties!
