It would be par for the course this season but no need for folk to start blaming people. If Dave put his hand up he had to play, fingers crissued.

When the game got away from us I would have removed him for rest of the game. He’s won us both fixtures against shudds and don’t think we will win without him.

the game got away when we took him and others off after 20 minutes not while he was on

We need 3 wins and we'll probably get them, but something is wrong with that team. We can't defend and our attack is embarrassing, brough and miller don't work together they've never looked comfortable. Brough was brought in to kick teams to death but the kicking game is non existent. Seems like players not playing for Chester. Danny Ward for me but can't see him coming or Chester getting bullet. If we lose to hudds on Friday it's looking scary with our run in. But long term he's gone as far as he can for me.

On the face of things you sound about right but, is it fair to judge the guy on a season that has been blighted with so many injuries.
We have a busted squad, players having to come back too soon just to make up the numbers and youngsters being thrown in who aren't quite ready.
The real disappointment is that despite having our first choice spine, we are utterly inept in the opposition 20 and our basic handling and ball retention just isn't good enough, which, because of having to defend so many additional sets, puts further strain on the squad.
We really do need to respect possession far more.

We need a director of rugby and a new conditioning team. Without them, the best we can hope for is a mediocre end to this season

It’s 22-6 when he comes back on. We haven’t scored since the beginning of the game and only have 28 minutes left for me we are out of the game at that point

We were never convincing at full strength early doors. Top five a certainty we were told. Yet all our wins barring Hull away could have gone either way. We were good at Leeds but they are poor and then failed to score a point in a home defeat. Hammered by London twice scorelines flattered us. Obviously injuries are a factor but they are at any club, if chester stays someone needs to be brought in to support him in the John kear role.

Don't let him drag you down to his level.

Carter will not sack Chester no way. But he's got to ask why when other players come in, why don't they know how we play Ok We've lost a lot of players through injury but the players that have come in should know our system. Top teams have players come in & it's like they know exactly what to do. Is it Chester or the other coaches fault Our halfbacks are just not cutting it yet we've signed them for 3 years & one for 2 We're going to have to wait a bloody long time to win something & this signing players that are just good players aren't doing it if we can't spend the money we're not going to compete with the big boys

Fifita went of injured hope hes good for next week.

As a Wire, he didn't look fit from the start. Was felled by a tackle round his ankles, and hobbled off. Hope it's not serious.
