How much game time did Perry put in Yesterday?. I don't recall seeing him return after being subbed.

he did is usual. lazy sod.

He was quiet against Widnes. But overall his form has improved considerably since he got over that injury.

Royce said that he was a few weeks behind the rest of the team, and i would agree it took him a few weeks to kick on but i believe he steped it up, widnes was a poor game for him, but lets face it a few players can put their hand hand up and say they were off the pace.

thinking about it i dont remember seeing him back on the second, hope he didnt take a knock

Did he come back on after his opening stint on Saturday?

Went off after about 15/20 minutes and didn't come back in, presumably picked up a knock.

That's what I thought, but I wondered if I was imagining it.

Hasn't he started games and then finished them? I wonder if he didn't come back as he was due to do the last 10, but with us down to 10 men we went with the more mobile LMS coming back on?

Cloughy did Perry,s minutes and his own stint
as well. Cloughy did very well on Saturday.
Perry is doing alright but need LMS to step up much more.

LMS was by far our best prop, infact probably our best player against Wigan. He has an absolute stormer and is most definitely improving.

I was critical of LMS last year and the start of this year but he's Ben very good since the Leeds game.

He's started running with purpose and doing the stuff a prop should do instead of trying to look flash.

Been the best prop for past month.

I'd like to see some stats for LMS because he doesn't make an impression on me in games at all, except when he misses tackles, which he seems to do quite a bit.

I was of the same feeling but he's really impressed me since Leeds. He's running much stronger and upped his work rate.

Maybe he's better off the bench.

Like to see him move up another notch, more metres more tackles, an 80% Graham would do.

Well, I've just looked at the Superleague website and our best performing prop (assuming he's been playing there: I sometimes struggle to tell!) is Laffranchi, although he's given away the most penalties. Our worst performing prop is Josh Perry, but that's no surprise (and he has now had as many games as LMS). Obviously they will all spend differing amounts of time on the pitch, or I would imagine they do anyway, but as a rough guide LMS comes in second but his marker tackles, for example, are less than half of those done by Laffranchi (at 66) who has played in only one more game than LMS.

Laffranchi has made 271 tackles when compared to LMS, who has made 226 so far (which is far better than Puletua who is comparatively lazy defensively). Laffranchi has made 983 metres to LMS's 886 but that number for LMS will include that almost full length of the pitch hike he did against Leeds. Or was it Warrington? One of those matches anyway so that isn't a true reflection of grafting metres, which is what I'm particularly interested in.

Laffranchi and LMS are similar in terms of offloads, with Laffranchi just edging him.

LMS has missed 13 tackles to Laffranchi's 10.
