He is absolutely hopelessly out of position for a bucketload of tries conceded and cant tackle for toffeee.

Funny That, YEP had him down as one of the highest performing players in the team last Thursday.

I'd be dropping Watkins before Handley, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay before Handley.

He's struggling both physically and mentally at the moment and its doing him no favours whatsoever been targeted in D and being shown up as a total turnstile.

The lad has class all the way through him and hes so off the pace coming back from injury its just stupid, I just cant for the life of me understand why they keep throwing him to the wolves. Give the on field captaincy to another player and let him just do the club captain stuff.

I remember watching a Widnes game mid late 80's widnes Full back Mick Burke been out injured, comeback game on tv cannot remember who against but he was rounded several times with ease and think he was dropped by Dougie after that and shipped out. watching Watkins reminds me of that performance but over and over again.

Please drop Watkins and Briscoe for that matter. Bring in Golding, as least he gives 110%

I think some should look at the amount of work and tackling Watkins is doing . The problem is at Half Back , get rid of Merrin , he is a luxury Marquee and sign Hastings . Despite our powder puff pack you will at last see some improvement .

Merrin has been our best forward

No Myler for me

Golding
Briscoe Newman Hurrell Handley
Sutcliffe McLelland
Peteru Dwyer Oledzki
Watkins Smith
Merrin

Why would you pick Watkins anywhere but centre? We've got a bunch of quality junior backrowers who should all get a chance before him there.

That, and Watkins is in no way shape or form a back row.
