Just thinking... I reckon what we've been missing during our losses is our wingers. It sounds like Holmes has been carrying an injury, and Feki has been in and out of the starting squad with issues for a while. Their workload has lent themselves to getting banged up.

In particular we've missed Feki. We don't have a replacement (Beale... I rest my case) in attack, carries or defence. I didn't realise just how important his contribution was until I looked at our performance with him in mind.

While they were fully fit, their contribution through the middle was immense. Lots of tough hit ups out of their own end, right into the smelly plaque-riddled teeth of the opposing packs. Then later in the game carving them up with lightning dashes out of dummy half, or linking up across the breadth of the field through three super passes.

Hopefully Feki is fully fit this week, and Holmes also. If they are, I'm sure we'll win.

I also think we miss gal's presence, with him in the middle we look at lot stronger I hope he's fit ready to go on Saturday and can fire up the troops, you always do more work when the boss is around haha...
