I had the pleasure of meeting RM before this season started, and my main point to him was that he needed to get the 2015 spirit back in the team. Not quite there yet, but we can see that the team are working for each other more than we saw last season.
In terms of Muzza, it was surely no coincidence that we moved from a comfortable winning position against Oldham to needing a game-saving tackle from Salty to keep us ahead. When Muzza came back on for the last few minutes, sanity returned and we ground out the win (his kick to the corner being the final clincher). He's not the fastest or best half back in the Championship by any means, but when he does hang his boots up, we desperately need to find another leader on the pitch to take his place.
Interesting in the warm up before the Oldham game that Mitch was being very vocal in the final huddle. Maybe we have some hidden talent there on the leadership front?
Going better than I expected like others have said we have got some of our passion back and the lads really work hard with our defence being pretty solid, we cannot fault the team for effort.
We lack a bit of flair and cutting edge in attack we could do with Adam O'Brien back, Muzza is key to us playing well but we need another quality half back to take the pressure off him and take us into the future after Muzza retires.
Salty, Mitch and Will are all going well, Rob is hit and miss sadly more miss so far, Steve Tyrer is ever reliable and Shane Grady is rock solid, we need Grixy back and soon.
I am happy with things so far a win up at Haven then its revenge time against Batley we need to beat them and push them out of the chase for a top 4 spot leaving us to fight it out with Toulouse and London as I think top 2 is Fev and KR.

a win in the cup and a big draw in the next round will keep that going and Batley are on the slide and there for the taking as well...
