Swap a back rower who isn't in our first 3 or 4 choices

For a back rower and a utility back

Same wages spent.

Smart business in my books.

Season of Goodwill over .
Hope you're recovery is both speedy and successful Luke.
I think it speaks volumes of the team and Daryls ethos with injuries and unplanned departures .
Not only have we won games but done it style.
Just an opinion.

I’d joined this and within a week I was been called a troll

I didn’t expect any different to be honest reading this forum over the years...

The new season beckons.
The new ground is subject to the usual speculation.
Opinions on the ability and usefulness of Wells being called into question.
Does Powell know what he's doing not replacing Webster.
What happened to the Crystal Ball not predicting injury prone Gales long term absence.
Shares being handed out Willy Nilly.
Descent in the boardroom.
Insults traded on the Forum.
Jollies in Lanzarote.
Will they never learn.
Can't wait for the new season to begin.

What’s happened in the board room?

Question,
What is Wells actually doing? I was excited when we made his appointment but yet he only seems to have been brought in to make announcements when the fans aren’t happy.

I have to say I was not impressed at all with this:-

Who the hell are we to start commenting on other clubs business? Leave that up to them!
We’re in no position to be commenting on other clubs.
He should be focusing on getting our own house in order as first priority.

IMO it’s in bad taste and will keep coming back to haunt him.

For one being instrumental in bringing in Watts and Mata'utia from what I heard as there were strong possibilities they went elsewhere. And Wellsy's discussions with them were big swings.

Or was it the wages we offered and are we paying more than we should just another view of course?

Yes, when something positive happens.

Do you think it’s positive to be picking at other clubs business?

He was answering a question...not delving into another Club's affairs. Both the Clubs he mentioned did need to sign players. It's a honest answer. Stop finding fault with everything.

He isn’t answering any question, there is no question to answer
he’s made a statement in what he believes and that has come across in bad taste and dosent sit well with me or others.

He classes us as a “very good squad” now Fryston, I have a question for you...
Would you class a very good squad one that has player bust ups on training camps and having players sent home?

I refer back to my first sentence, who the hell are we to pick faults with others?

He was answering a question why we haven't signed anyone when others have, I believe. But I'm not gonna quibble with you.
On the other point....yes we DO have a very good squad.
On the supposed fighting....I would wait for an official statement before jumping to conclusions. And if one doesn't come....I would assume it's being dealt with internally. D P doesn't suffer fools gladly. These things will happen all the time at professional Clubs. It doesn't make us any worse then any Club in Super League......but don't let that stop you having a moan again.

Wrong....yet again.
The people you call 'happy clappers' probably aren't that all....I for one think we are chokers in the big games....but we don't feel the need to constantly moan about it on a Club Forum because our lives are not that sad. We had to a debate and move on.
Like this new one that's cropped up...the alleged fighting...I hope they are! I hope the intensity has ramped up in training that much that the players are ripping in to each other to get a starting berth.
But what you won't find me doing is jumping to conclusions, feigning mild disgust, calling players out where there's evidence to suggest otherwise and spouting the same regurgitated rubbish every day.
This is a Forum to discuss and debate....not a place to slate people who happen to oppose a different...and in most cases...a saner view. But then again, maybe it's my rose-tinted glasses getting in the way again....ppfftt.
