Been going ok but doesn't strike me as being all that fast really. Guess we'll find out when he makes a break but I've not seen much evidence that pace is a huge part of his game'"
Perhaps thats because the pace of the players in Super League is not that different to the NRL.
...or maybe so far the ground has been too heavy to run that fast.

"Leeds is the greatest club in Rugby League"

| Quote: christopher "Think your being overly harsh TBH
Momorosvki is a very ‘smart’ RL player, he’s not a flashy player but will make the correct decisions more than not, he’s a proper wingers centre and defensively very strong he will be s great signing.
Frawley is doing his job and will let croft do his thing. Against Cats we had pretty much zero field position so was constantly kicking from deep.'"
I’ve just had a look at the YEP’s correspondent player scores for the Dragons game, and I think he’s spot on.
He scores Croft 9, Handley 9 and Cam Smith 9 at the top end, and Frawley 6 and Mom 6 at the bottom end. I’m not saying he’s spot on because he agrees with me in contrast to you, because his opinion is like both yours and mine, just an opinion. What I will say is I wouldn’t score either Frawley or Mom higher than a 6 in any of the three games they’ve currently played. As for Frawley, poor penalty kicks to touch can happen, kicking out on the full can happen, but when these things happen in the same game that you’re kicking straight into the oppositions hands time after time it’s got to be classed as a poor kicking game. If it doesn’t get better than Saturday that kicking game will cost us. As for Mom, he seemed happy for Handley to make most of the hard carries when we were under the pump in that first half. I’d like to see him more involved in that respect. Like I say, he’s been fairly anonymous to me up to press. I hope he turns out to be a good signing, but his reputation means absolutely nothing until he does it in the blue and amber.

I can see where you're coming from here, time will tell.
Frawley I reckon will look better when we're in good ball putting attacking kicks on, rather than long clearance kicks because we've failed to gain any field position down the middle. I quite like that he's a reasonably big body, and he does take the line on at times - I think he'll make some breaks when the grounds are drier.
Mom I think is a quality player, but he's not player regularly for a while with a shoulder injury, not had the most consistent pre-season and is playing his first season here in winter conditions. I think in his case we'll start to see a different player once he's settled and the tracks are better. He should have some gas if he gets clear too. End of the day if he's contributing to Ash having a wow of a season I'll take it!

| It’s not uncommon for Aissie imports (especially ones with a long layoff like MOM) to take a bit if time to bed in.
He made 83 metres and took 14 Carries, it’s not like he was shirking work.
Fwiw i think 6 is probably a fair score

I thought Mom carried noticeably more against Cats.

What MOM is also doing is defending well, he’s basically covering that side eg Ash didn’t make one tackle on Saturday mom made 17.
This keeps Ash fresher

| Yes, should have said with Mom that although he hasn't done much as yet. He seemed to do more against Cats and is probably slowly increasing his workload week by week.

Keeps him on his wing too. None of that dashing infield rubbish.
In defence I mean

I’ve noticed they often switch positions when were attacking, Ash then stays on the wing when defending

| To give Mom 6/10 shows that some people just don't see what some players do.
His workrate, positioning and contact in defence was very good, but this doesn't necessarily catch the eye.
He's also getting judged on reputation as well.
A previous defensive weakness area for us has very much improved.
Regardless of the scores YEP give him, I'm pleased with what I've seen so far.
And as has been said, he will get better.

| What I’m seeing is an athletic player with good skill and positioning. He can put a shot on in D too.
I’m sure when the grounds get better we’ll see more from him in attack. I think he’ll put Ash away for a few more this year, that is a very dangerous edge now.
Generally we’ve got about what we expected in the new players; and we are a better side than last year as a result.
