Well I'm repeating myself again but it's just bad luck it's you lot. We were looking forward to testing ourselves against the division leaders and seemed ok to play Thursday and even most of Friday but we've so many lads who've had to take Saturday work it's killing us, plus a few ill & injured - and no offence but we're not a RL area, a small and inexperienced squad of 26-27 can't afford to have 8 working, 3 ill, 3 injured and 1 at his dad's funeral.
That little quote you've all been making so much of (that facebook interview was very entertaining) was made by that lad at the funeral, he's been missing for a few months looking after his dad who died last week. He's just keen to get back and gee the boys up and I'm sure you know how that feels.
I'm afraid lad's jobs have to come first - it p*sses me off as much as anyone but that's the priority for people these days, especially with Xmas coming up when work dries up.

I personally think (as i have posted before) not turning up should have a bigger penalty. 18-0 is actually a good result away to the table leaders, we got beat 30-10 at st helens so youve done better than us up there, without making a tackle so whats the point in playing them with a weakened side?? just doesnt seem harsh enough. id dock you 4 points and a -40 score thatd stop people throwing games
