Quote: christopher "He did as good a job as anyone else we have to put there, we can't shift Myler from that fullback position as he has been outstanding there, Sutcliffe doesn't;t want to play 6, the fans don't want him to play 6 but until Eastmond is ready we don't really have a choice.

Apart form his error from the kick off, he didn't do much wrong.'"

My gripe is that's the problem, he didnt look to get involved enough to do much wrong, he was anonymous. The least you can do is be a willing carrier of the ball, no to mention his contribution to some slow to react edge defence.

Broadbent missed a couple of tackles yesterday but Tupou is a handful for most but Broadbent usually is a very solid defender.

Ive no concerns at all with his defence. Really good young player.

Feel really sorry for Liam Sutcliffe playing different positions even ones he cant really play osnt fair on him at all. Hopefully Eastmond plays next week.

Quote: Simmo71 "Myler has found his place at FB.
I would not move him into the halves - give him the season at FB.
If Sutcliffe is all we have at 6 for a few weeks, I would be tempted to play Smith there.
He can’t possibly be any worse.
The only position Sutcliffe should play is centre.
Mellor is a concern.
He isn’t doing enough, and there’s players knocking the door down.
I worry that Walters will only stick around so long if he cant get minutes.
Rest of the pack were excellent.
Broadbent looks a superstar with ball in hand, but needs to work on his defence.
He shoots the line and leaves gaps.
But he needs help from the sliding defence, because he got exposed.
Gale just had a bad day.
We really need Handley back and another winger.
The way we use the hookers is spot on.
Dwyer comes on when there’s tired legs and creates a bit of havoc with his energy.
But he can’t pass the ball.'"



L Sutcliffe think centre cam smith to 6, A Sutcliffe does not deserve dropping so left second row Eastmond on the bench drop Mellor to bench, not doing enough.

Not one for knee jerks and throwing in youngsters but surely someone like Tindall deserves a shot over Tom Briscoe who looks a right cart horse. The equivalent of Mick Burke against Warrington in about 1986 on Granstand

Tom is quicker than he looks sometimes - he just got stood up and I don’t think many in the league would catch Johnstone with a 5 yard headstart.

Quote: Loiner at large "Great to haverugby back and in the end happy to take the 2 points. After all the chat and build up what if anything have we learned. Our pack looks stronger than last year with competition for places. Our backs albeit mising a number of players lack pace and attacking threat. Even when absentees return we still will lack speed. Last years stand outs Myler Öledski and Prior again our best players.
Tetevano -need to learn how to use him to best effect.
Dwyer - no change 100% effort some brilliant mixed with the headless chicken moments. The Phil Ford of hookers!
Question marks against starting 2nd rows arguably bench men stronger and Thompson impressed particularly.
Sutcliffe at 6 its all been said!
Broadbent - Really promising but lets not get carried away at a very similar stage to Newman last year. Real potential but defence a concern.
Wingers - like functional boring cars will do a job but no thrill factor and will get passed easily on a straight road.
Gale give him a break been out for 11 weeks and made a few mistakes but still had to take all the responsibility for moving the team around as we have nobody else.
My final point would be when are people going to start giving Richie Myler some credit. He is consistently performing to a high standard never ducks anything or complains and while he was poor in the halves that should be taken in the context of the style of the halves as a unit. I would have no issue with him at 6 with Gale at 7. It will be an interesting next couple of games if nobody ready to return.'"


The Phil Ford of hookers! Haha great analogy

Quote: ploinerrhino "Jesus along with Myler , Dwyer was the main reason we won , plus a big wrap for Donaldson who i am not normally a big fan of'"


Exactly Ploiner, they were both excellent. Not saying Leeming is a bad 9 and is steady, but Dwyer outshone him yet again, and adds that bit of grub.

Myler MOM for me, best player on the park.

I still think Myler’s deficiencies at FB will become more apparent as the year goes on - having said that he is by far our best option currently. I’m still not convinced a fit Walker is the answer either, although he was in good form a few years ago.

Really excited about a Newman/Broadbent future; those boys could both develop into international players.

Martin and Mellor both need to do more but one coming off injury and another COVID; be interesting to see how they go through the season.

Briscoe is still really quick. What you are saying is not true and rude. Watch the second Johnstone try, he actually makes up a yard on him from standing start. I was impressed by that. He is a very good winger and we need to lay off him.....

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg



I’m more annoyed with him for the way he showed their fastest man the outside with miles of room than for not catching him. If it was the other way around Tom may well have scored with that much room.

Wing is an area we need to improve overall, let’s hope that Liam Tindall comes through this year.

Tom Briscoe is not quick and should never have shown Johnstone the outside

Totally underwhelmed with Mellor , could not understand us signing him really. Rhyse needs to get more involved too. Thought Thompson and Cam Smith went well. Myler has his critics on here but he was excellent today

I would say on here most people are very posotive on Myler since he moved to Full Back , he should just never move to half back

Stop being silly now, Johnstone never came out of second gear and what’s this standing start you’re talking about, Johnstone is yet to collect the ball and Briscoe was already facing the Leeds try line and setting off.

Were in round 1 and people want players dropping and moved around already this will not benefit the team players have had no pre season friendlies to build up proper match fitness, players like Gale probably playing 50% fit. L.Sutcliffe is a bit of a scape goat everyone including Sutcliffe himself knows he's not a halfback 6 or 7, but we didn't really have any other option if we threw Eastmond straight in after not playing for nearly a year never mind he hasn't played rugby league for nearly 10 years who knows what could have happened yesterday if he had the likes of Bill Tupou or Tanginoa running down his channel. I think we can compete and cope for a couple more weeks if L.Sutcliffe is with Gale in halves until Eastmond is match fit. One thing I would be tempted too do is name Cam Smith at 6 but let him play as extra loose forward, like what we did with Cuthbertson in 2015 and just let Gale run as solo halfback like Danny Mcguire did for us when Sinfield had to play Hooker. And I don't see the point in Dropping the likes of Mellor he's a very solid second rower imo and were in round 1 he does his jobs tackles and offers to hit a line let a few rounds conclude and see where team are at before we right players off.

T.Briscoe hasn't been "quick" for 2yrs & his brother isnt good enough either.
Onto the game i thought we showed some good resilience after going 16-4 down & scored some good tries.
Our lack of Power in the pack really showed with Mikolaj & Tetevano off the pitch & i think Agar left Prior on too long in his first stint.
Dwyer added a lot when he came on ,Broadbent was very good albeit a little raw in defence at times.
Imo Tindall & Walters should be in the current 17 in place of L. Briscoe & one of Mellor Thompson or Donaldson.
