@scouseviking55 lol forced rotation through injuries isn't rotation 

injuries to Gregson mcwhirter edge Owens meant forced rotation completely different to rotation 

in the houghton etc will get fed up and we will lose players as of the last two seasons who get no game time 

@vikingfox71 he’s rested majority of the back line over the last few weeks swapping them in and out.

you can’t fudging win with Widnes fans, winning 5 in a row but we must swap forwards who are doing great work because we’re worried a player might get annoyed that he can’t play. They’re not 5 years old mate this is professional sport and players have to wait for an opportunity to win their place.

He was sent out on loan to give him game time as well

@dan1 I think if we don’t need him , let him go to Salford on loan, they would have to pay a lot of his wages, and we would still have him on our books and be able to recall him, if we needed him.

@pauliewalnuts I think its the other way round, people would be surprised just how much some of these part time players are on. Wage inflation is a hot topic in the Championship with teams getting in financial trouble and talk of a salary cap.

If 1 or 2 sides start offering daft money, with agents etc it causes wage inflation in the rest of the Championship. York when in the Champ were paying really good money. Same for Featherstone until they went bump, same for Oldham. Fax couldnt sustain it, Whitehaven are on the brink, they released another statement last week saying they cant survive on current crowds. Barrow who have a very decent side asked for help funding todays extra trip to London in the cup. Then you also have London paying silly money.

Overall I think the wages have to come down with no tv deal and small crowds. 

For context i was told Josh Drinkwater is on £70k a year at Oldham. He must be one of the top earners in our league. 

@scouseviking55 your always so angry Scouse "calm down" it's my opinion as someone whose had a season ticket for 40 years I'm allowed one lol

coleman asked for a big squad and he's been "fortunate " his words that injuries to the backs sambou,Owens,edge etc have coincided with players returning "Coleman's words again" to make his decision easier so that's not rotation and probably we will lose Taylor , houghton etc as season wears on as no or little game time as we do every season 

it's a message board not a war relax 🧘‍♂️
