You'd get rid of Shenton! :shock:
I would. His decision making is terrible. Shot out of the line far too many times today, one he dropped and they scored from. He needs to concentrate on his rugby, he's not a captain for me.

Loosing 4 forwards is never going to make things easy.

Neither is not having your starting 1/6/7/9 on the pitch to start.

I think If we could have brought say millo or watts on in that 2nd half it would have made a big difference.

My.only concern is we have all been thinking 'we can hit the super 8s hard with players back'. But we seem to be loosing people quicker than getting them back. And you have to wonder if we are rushing them back too, Webster looked miles off the pace, and mcshane should have really been tested.

Was also some positives. For me thought Moors had a cracker and Jesse too before he went off. Jy finished well and didn't put a foot wrong. Minikin although not amazing (as with the bulk of the team) played better than the Warrington game (still likely playing banged up).

Just asking, who would your two centres for 2019 be?

Yeah. Hate to see him playing injured especially when Gill is more than capable of stepping in.

Don't agree. Admittedly first try was a bit easy. Second try, a fluke, third try a big lad forcing his way over, fourth try a last tackle kick when we were gassed.
We've had better days, but scored 5 to 4. No panic. I actually thought Minikin had a good game.

He def played better than the Warrington game. Foster for me has to be our right centre for the reminder of 2018.

When you have Moors having to play something like 55 minutes you have problems. Thought we killed them in opening quarter but the tide turned when they brought on Lunt. They did well to slow the ruck down and killed any momentum we had. Thought Vaivai was excellent and their best player. Seen some people questioning attitude and effort but for me that wasn’t lacking at all. The boys did everything they could to get us over the line but were just outdone by a fresher team towards the end. Shame because with a fully fit rotated bench I reckon we would have won comfortably.

Would have won with conversions.
We beat Warrington who we didn’t think we would so in essence we have surpassed our expectations of only having 2 pts/4. Silver linings and all that.

Onwards to Wigan which now is a bigger game given we are an extra point behind them.
In the spirit of the final Blackadder episode - Goooodbyeee!

Looks as though he was limping since he went Down with about 25 mins left and then saw him leave in a moon boot with crutches.

Thought everyone put effort in today, might have been a disappointing result but still got a point and in 4th spot with a game in hand and if we win will take us to third.

I agree. I didn't leave questioning our attitude today. Also when you have a young and inexperienced spine , it won't always go well. Not to mention we were in their half once in the last 10 mins.

Thought moors had a really strong game which was pleasing.
