Watkins going to Leeds which isn't a massive shock.


Probably have signed by the time this post appears.


Not sure what else is out there, feel like we will go with what we have, real shame injuries are dictating our season, as I think a near fully fit squad could finish in the top 6.


Hopefully we can hang in there until we get some bodies back.

TBF I actually thought Ashworth was pretty good last night, playing as a make shift 2nd row at times as well as a front rower. Don't think the impact of us having no recognised 2nd rowers for a lengthy period of time can be understated, that does hurt us and it showed even more with Asiata leaving the game early in the 2nd half.

Stats are poor Chris, 19 tackles 6 misses, 8 hit ups, 42m (AG 5M).2 penalties.

King staying at Wire .

Ashworth for his faults still brings more impact of the bench than Fash or Aydin ..  Last couple of games hadn't been at his best but last year and the start of this was one of our better forwards imo

I think Ashworth is trying too hard as he seems to really like it here and has made no secret of his desire to earn an extension. JC or Lasty probably need to sit him down and try and take some of the pressure off. He looked really good again at the start of the season. He runs hard and straight and defends with aggression. He needs a little guidance on the offloads and timing in the tackle but I think there's a really solid bench player in him.
