Whilst I'm not disagreeing re Dwyer, did you feel the same about Rob Burrow's performances at 9? He was so much worse.

The most impactful I remember Golding being was when he came off the bench and played at hooker. You'd think he have more structure that Dwyer in his play, so it would have been nice to see him interchanging with Lunt. He'll be gone though, sadly.

Nah Golding isn’t a SL 9 for me. A good 9 should be very game-aware, absolutely solid in middle D and with some real craft of distribution.

Corey Johnson will most likely become the Leeds 9 for the next decade once he matured over the next year or two. It reminds me a bit of when Diskin came through - different players but you knew he was going through to first team and staying there.

Do you think Johnson will be ready in 12 months time?

Incidentally when did Myler trip someone? I never noticed on Friday.

Burrow was never a 9 but at delivered the ball when needed and usually ran when there was only 1 marker, he would also pass to Sinny or Maggsy on the last to kick. Dwyer throws it to whichever prop is nearest or runs sideways and kicks it for himself bizarrely.

Utterly hopeless.

I buy that, playing Golding at 7, he played all his junior rugby at Stanningley at either 6 or 7, yes I am a Golding fan , he also can play 9 as well as fullback, a good player to have around the squad. Some at the club do not rate him, so unfortunately that's that.
Regarding Walker being England's full back in the next three years, although he is a great prospect, he is light years away from Zac Hardaker in terms of being number 1 in that position, he will I feel only get his shirt if ZH gets injured or banned again

I think he could be if he works hard yes.

It was a fad for a long time to spell your hookers (so us with Burrow - Dwyer is another throwback to that philosophy) but personally I prefer 80 min hookers.

I think Johnson could give us that 80 min hooker again which frees up an interchange spot.

Totally agree - give him a go !

Like Dwyer, even his own players didn't know what Rangi Chase was going to do, but he was an X factor player. I'm not saying Dwyer's in the same class, but we currently have few X factor players. Of course he's frustrating, but basic play isn't going to cut it. I appreciate his enthusiasm, and would rather see him trying things than Mclelland going AWOL after 20 mins.

Remind me, what is this thread again ??

Milk Churns.

But really, point taken.

Back about talking about the game please and I cannot believe there hasn't been any fish puns as yet either.

I think the plaice will be a bit subdued after last weeks game, but I'm hoping the lads can forget about it and put in a brilliant performance, cod knows we need one, maybe a plan could be to wind Connor up, he'll surely take the bait, hook line and sinker? we also need to tackle better than last week and that may cast a doubt in Hulls mind, we desperately need to start floating to the top end of the table.

Trawling of the worst kind
