After watching the game back on sky we need to hold on to him. Wire look worried every time he runs and with continued good coaching will be a excelent half back for the future.

Agree with the sentiments about keeping Jonno although we do need another playmaker. Also very impressed with Chester Butler yesterday; wouldn't surprise me if Fax release Worrincy and play Butler more next season.

I'd go along with that. Robs lack of effort in the tackle and his non existent attempt for the high ball to the corner yesterday were shocking. The Grove shuddersfield. Mallinsons Mandarina Bavaria 4.0% Mmm! icon_biggrin.gifRUNK:

Not watched the recording yet well done to Butler who last played in March which begs the question maybe him Nelmes.Mcgrath,Cullimore Reilly could have had more game time to gain experience than using D/R ?

The bottom line is that in the Warrington game at 10 v 8 the only way I thought we were going to sneak it is if we could get it in Robs hands on an interception. I couldn't see anyone else having the pace. Top marks for the effort by the team . My own view on the match is that the apprentice coach more than matched his master. If I was Warrington I would be making an offer and I would say well done to RM he has shown the resilience required to make it.

I totally agree with that. Surely the whole point of having a reserve set up is to prepare the lads for the 1st team.

It's amazing how people see different things in the same game/players. Robs strength has always been his pace and we haven't seen much of that lately. icon_eek.gif

Always been a good yardage maker from quick PLB and still effective now.Commentary on Saturday reminded me how him and Paul White on wings were outstanding together.

Perhaps that I should more to do with those knside him than Rob himself, always runs strongly when taking the ball out of defence, I'm sure our forwards appreciate that. Look how Heaton has started scoring since we moved the right flank around. Good centres are worth their wei get in gold IMO.

Rob's been playing well, and certainly does his fair share of the hard graft carrying the ball forward. His judgement of ball flight is woeful though, and even if he couldn't have caught the ball when it flew towards his wing, he should have been ready to flatten their winger as soon as he caught it. When he was playing at Sheffield, he showed that he's a strong finisher down the wing - if he has the right ball at the right time coming to him from inside.

Warrington definitely did some home work on Jonno. He looked very dangerous the week before against Widnes, so they made a conscious effort to shut him down quickly. Yes, he has definitely benefited from a sustained period at scrum half alongside Murrell and is becoming the player we all know he can be.

Having watched that game again, I cannot help but find fault with Rob for that Russell try. We make a pretty outstanding effort in the middle (as usual) to number off on the last tackle after a repeat set, forcing the kick. What Rob is doing positional wise, I will never know. I initially assumed Russell had outjumped him, which in a way is fair enough, but Rob just completely misses the flight and it's only the terrific covering tackle attempt that puts some pressure on Russell, making it look a quality finish. Rob does so much hard work going forward and has become more solid as the season's progressed, but he is still capable of these mishaps. With Butler excelling and Heaton surely to come back in, I fear Rob could be the one sacrificed next week.
