It would be a disgrace if we were even fighting relegation. I mean, yes we are down there but have 4 soon to be 5 toughest away trips done in our first 8 games by end of the week. This squad is not a contender, perhaps worse than even most of us thought but still should be good enough for top 8 over the full season.

Should be I agree but the 3 performances give real reason for concern. The first 4 games was ridiculously tough but the performances in those was better than in the more winnable games since.

That says to me it's about attitude rather than ability. We have had good performances. The team may have underestimated the quality of the next three games and thought they'd be able to just turn up. Hopefully that attitude won't persist

I firmly believe there is ability in this team to compete in Super League against most teams the performance at Saints showed that. Mental toughness, attitude, team spirit and fight have let us down and it's not good enough.

I'd bite your hand off for an 8th place finish right now

Agreed the way this lot has imploded in games has been pathetic the squad has too many not up to it including the stand in Captain.

I’m not as anti-Ferres as some but would let him go at the end of this year at his age. Been a really poor signing overall, partly due to injuries but also another case of us signing someone past their prime. We never really got to see much of his wide running, ball handling England form.

Agreed. Ferres' last season with us.

The way this is going we’re going to be losing a lot of players for 2020.

Self inflicted we could & should have offloaded more this time around.
