The "Transition" has been taking longer than it should have. I think Sinny said when he came it would be a 3 year job.As a rule of thumb I would give the Aussie imports a years grace to bed in,what with a new culture and environment so I definitely think younger squad members need to be cut some slack. Oledzki,Mclelland,Holroyd etc cannot flourish behind a toothless pack. We won't see the best of these until we acquire a pair of mongrel props with the possible addition of a top winger/ utility back.Where are the forwards in the tackle busts league table?Since there us no relagation we should be looking to give Sam Walters and others match time experience. We seem t be struggling with the new format of super League,so I would like to see a younger athletic squad. Maybe Covid 19's second wave will kill off the season and give the management some more breathing space to fix things up. Perhaps a new Edgar Curtis would be beneficial.

Lol yes it is.. worked out well anyway

Wouldnt be surprised to see manfredi cop a ban for trying to tackle briscoe with his elbow to his head, Callum has only played two games so shouldn’t be under fire atm, anyone know why Holroyd didn’t come back on? Thought he looked lean and well drilled opposed to a couple of our other players

Yes, but then hopefully used as a trusted member of the 17 throughout the game. 'We didn't think it was right to put him back in later with the game balanced as it was'. Well, just leave cuthbertson to chuck the ball away on play 1 instead at 16-10.

Did you see Holroyds stats aswell for the limited time he was on? excellent really, and do not back up that lack of faith from Agar.

He's an 18 year old lad who hasn't played a game for best part of a year. He needs to get his body used to the contact again. He'll probably get a bit more time if he plays next week.

What was his stats Gotcha? He was certainly makimg plenty of tackles.

Hes still a kid and prop is a tough position but Tommy will be a good player for Leeds for a long time to come..

Cant see him playing next week Jack. In fact i can guarantee he wont.

16 tackles and one miss in the short time he was on. Average gain running in of 9 metres per carry.

As a Wigan fan I expected to see plenty of Holroyd yesterday as it looked like he’d been lined up to have a crack at his fellow young forwards in our pack. I believe he’d played for years with Smithies at Siddal and he was in the front row with Havard for the England academy against the Aussies. Unless he was injured, I was surprised to see so little of him.

Why? Is he injured again?

It's cup week Jack
