We HAVE to win tomorrow - and in style to boost our points difference. Then beat Hull and get something from either the game against Wigan or Saints.

Leeds had a sniff before this round of results but now it's definitely seven into five.

Slightly off topic - London were magnificent today and showed the level of guts and determination that we will need to display to get anything positive out of this season.

Eddie Battye & Jordan Abdull again showing GB form. Luke Yates an outsider for MOS based on his displays in a side at the wrong end of the table.

Wigan coming home with a wet sail and will get to OT with a great chance of toppling Saints. Why can't we produce young aggressive forwards like they can....?
Yates will be nowhere near mos now the system has changed

With Austin getting injured it's Hastings' to lose now

Watts would have been in with a good chance of it if he hadn’t got injured too

Hastings is currently 12 points clear in the MOS rankings, can't be caught. Believe Wattsy is 2nd.

Apologies - I was being tongue in cheek. He would be great in our squad though...

I'm sure there's more but there's only one starter in the leaving few and Blair, peanut and shenny are ahead of minikin.
But thats for next season and you said there is no reason we can’t make OT this year? Doesn’t make sense?
Is says about this and next year, thought it made sense especially as the signing window had closed.

Blair is unquestionable from what we have seen so far.
Hepi for Clark dont agree that's an upgrade.

The other 3 yes assuming they all leave which hasn't been confirmed yet by the club.
Time will tell with Hepi, but I would rather have someone who wants to be at the club than someone who doesn’t and acts like a petulant teenager when he doesn’t get his own way.
Spot on, I see hepi as a 13, milner style. Someone who makes a number of tackles and the ability to mix it up with big hits.

Good signing for Salford sarginson Centre from Wigan would not have minded him at cas going to be short off a good centre. when are we going to wake up and smell the roses you need good signings to compete at top 5 level looking at next year's teams. . Surely the doctor is still giving cash to Salford they get half crowds we do.

So were going to be short in centres short in forwards when's short in half-backs coming?

Cooper Cronked?

Sarginson is OK but not the amazing player you make him out to be. We have plenty of cover in the centres with Blair, Shenton, Olpherts, Matautia and Foster.

Theres not a good centre between them Shenton on is day but too old now Blair too slow , Foster can't pass, Matautia trys but not good enough olpherts out on out winger so I would say we need a proper centre who can run a score.
