Tear this big clumsy clowns contract up now and send him home.
and brown wants to tell the team what the word Tackle means
back to the same old cack as last season

Tell him to take Lms with him.

Here here

A couple more would be on their way if it were upto me.

Masoe had a bad game today but he's been our best prop the past couple of weeks.

Too many forwards just can't tackle, there all quite happy to take the ball in, but don't want to do the hard graft. Richards was a powder puff on the last try and he just came on fresh as a daisy. It's about having a balanced pack and we only have amour and walker that love a tackle. The rest want the glory yards.

I thought all the saints forwards seemed a bit flat, only Amor and Richards seemed to have a real dig, Walmsley was quiet too.

The most worrying thing though if were a Saints fan is James Roby's form. He wasn't poor, but he just doesn't seem as enthused as he usually does.

Doing twice the number of tackles as the next highest at the club does that to a guy

He's been doing that for a few seasons now though, maybe it's finally starting take it's toll.

He's already 170 tackles ahead of the next highest guy (Wilkin) though I don't think the gap has ever been that big.

Masoe was awful today, absolutely no commitment at all. He's playing like the comedy fat guy at your work five a side.

I just don't see this. He's shown me nothing at all to prove he's a good prop. In my humble opinion he's lazy, unfit, doesn't run his weight and no aggression.

Not impressed with him at all sorry.

Even Sia looks to have had enough.

Our pack looks soft.

What we thought was our strongest asset looks our worst. The props are unfit and basically impact props, the back row is lightweight and slow.

On a whole, the pack lacks aggression.

We lack an interchange prop for Amor. Amor and walmsley compliment each other well, and look effective when on together. Masoe (whilst quickly becoming a scapegoat) is a decent interchange for walmsley, but we lack the talisman when Amor is off - there are 2 solutions, either Amor does much longer minutes (the James graham solution) or we have to bring in another prop who is as effective as Amor (we both agree that laffranchi shouldn't be replaced by youth and today's game proved it more than ever) - Richards (already) has his knockers, but he has impressed me, it's just were asking far too much of an 18 yr old prop.

Too many of our back rowers are skating by by being "solid defensively" (which none of them looked today) - lms had a better game today than in a while, but still offered little - he went from liability to anonymous. Either wellens plays from the off or not at all, bringing him on after 60 minutes is just a waste in a game like today. I'm a big fan of greenwood in general, but I've been less than convinced recently (though I'm told he played well at widnes, so I'll reserve criticism for a while yet.) Wilkin is well out of form. Jones as a 20 year old just physically can't match others yet and is better on the fringes (because he's a centre!!!!!!!). None of them can dent a defensive line. Same with Flanaghan. These are supposed to be the players running angles to confuse defences, and they just aren't, which is why were relying on individual or team brilliance (chuck it about and see what happens) to break defences down. Sometimes it comes off (castleford second half) sometimes it's a disaster (castleford first half).

Amor, Roby and soliola are exempt from criticism for me, walmsley is getting that way (if he were more consistent) - the rest need to think about what they bring to the team.
