    Looks like a bicep problem to me that rather than shoulder

    Its a defence orientated Superleague over the last 2 seasons with no scrums. We actually do blow teams away but we do it with our defence we keep the majority of teams to zero or one score. We did blow one team away in attack and defence beating the Catalans 48-2 in a play off semi final but that is few and far between for any team these days.

    Yes, it is much harder these days, no doubt. But this season Both Wire and Catalans have managed a 60+ and a 50 as well as Catalans beating Wigan 48-0, and if they can manage it occasionally I think we should be able to. (Hopefully next season, with Dodd/Lomax/Welsby in full effect.)

    Yes it was Handley but Regan also showed him his squad number last year, Tommy looks injured maybe that foot and now this arm/shoulder problem have restricted his training he seemed to be lacking a bit of his usual zip on that score.
