Towns attack sounds very predictable I honestly think its time for forber to step aside and thorman Start using young walker the 2 games he ain't afraid to take the ball to the line and gives us something different

Widnes commentators described the first 2 tries as Under 11 defending.

I’m not prejudiced, I hate everybody equally

Appreciate Chris knows better than us but i do think its time to try something different, commentators remarking how pedestrian and obvious we are in attack!

I think these two games were the ones to play him when you look at what’s coming up

And that is where we need to sharpen up on. We don’t seem able to tackle or defend

I remember when .............................

"It is impossible not to feel a twinge of sympathy for Workington Town, the fall guys this season for the Super League's determination to retain it's European dimension, in the shape of Paris. While the French have had every assistance to survive, the importance of having a flagship in a heartland area like West Cumbria has been conveniently forgotten." - Dave Hadfield - Independent 25th August 1996.

Death, taxes & town let the ball bounce. All certainties in life. 

Whilst I was around 90% certain  we would fall to defeat today. Listening to the same simple mistakes and errors is exhausting. 

A poor first 15 minutes sees us 3 tries down. And a poor 10 minutes last week cost us the game

 Come on town. We're better than this

Commentators also said that the two errors giving 12 points start were unacceptable for professional players. Maybe uner 8's would have been more appropriate.

I agree anok4u it’s poor defence by all the team not just one player

Where did he blame forber for everything, its a perfectly reasonable conversation to have. Forber has his strengths and is appreciated by all town fans, but also he is limited in attack and walker brings a completely different playing style.

Sounds ok going forward but if you can go by what the commentators are saying he’s having a nightmare under high balls. Oh for a Gabe Fell!

He’s gone to scrum half now, Forber gone off, Bickerdike to full back.

Why mention one player? Chris thorman knows more about players strengths and weaknesses, he picks the team and that's who I'll trust
