Briscoe and Ablett isn't it? And now Golding is down.....could be a very long afternoon


My bad - I was going by what Ray French said on BBC Radio Merseyside, so obviously not the most reliable source.

Anyway, what a horrendous afternoon. I disjointed attack could be excused with us having a very inexperienced halfback pairing and Burrow at hooker, but conceding 56 points is simply awful with the personnel we had on the field.

Shocking performance. Most bottle less performance for 15.

Long hard look in mirror before next week.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

These games happen - if one side gets the momentum it can be near impossible to turn it around

What was worrying was the poor performances from some of the senior players - I don't buy this WCC in their mind rubbish. It seemed to me the team was a rudderless ship today no direction both on and off the field.

Will the club be refunding our admission money - let's face it the team didn't turn up, the game was lost well before the injury to Briscoe. This was like watching the early 80's games against Bradford!

I'm a bulls fan so maybe I'm allowed to say, like watching the bulls in our last couple of years in super league. I don't agree you had one eye on next week, just a very bad day at the office

Us Bulls fans like you to lose, especially as we have won so convincingly at Whitehaven this weekend

"He's the best coach I've had... His mix of man-management and his game plan is second to none. Since Brian Mac has been in charge, we've been in every final so far. I love playing for him. I can't praise him enough, I've so much respect for him and I hope he's here for a very long time." Kevin Sinfield 29/9/12

Knee jerk reaction is the foundation of social media, no point trying to stop the flow of sewage...

Of more concern is a possible proliferation of knee injuries this season. I haven't seen today's incidents but - from an objective point of view - was very unhappy with the circumstances of Shenton's injury.

Re: RD 2 | Widnes Vikings : Sun Feb 14, 2016 7:37 pm  
I said prior to the match if we were going to play you now was the best time, and it's been ultimately shown to be correct. You're a squad still smarting from the loss of your talismans and finding their feet, and I suspect eventually you will click. We've had as many changes to our squad as most but it's not the same, we've not replaced anyone who was the heart of the team and being written off by loud mouths probably helped stoke some fires too.

Some interesting posts here, particularly about the pitch. Two teams playing on it under the same conditions, we've had a few seasons on it now and have been just fine so if it's not causing us an injury crisis, it shouldn't be to your team during one match. Incredibly rich blaming that.

The injuries being suffered around all teams already is quite alarming. The last 3/4 years we seem to be seeing more and more clubs having an injury crisis and earlier and earlier into the season to the point when teams have several out before the first game.

...............................

As for the point some others made above about the WCC. I'd say it had some bearing on the score line at least, but not the result, likewise with the Saints score line on Thursday. I know teams like to play it down so they don't look unprofessional or disrespectful to that weeks opposition but it happens so often the weeks before and after a WCC or CC Final and also in other sports that it can't be coincidence.
