He looks de coached to me and not used the right way, we don't have any intensity in our game.
The frustrating thing he always gets a flat ball semi static most of the time, when we attack near the line Masoe comes charging in only to be a decoy runner to attract defenders...this isn't working.

Masoe reminds me of Lauaki

I don't think Mose is as good as him.

Honestly, I just don't know what this guy brings.

I think to be fair to Masoe he's been put on a programme designed to get him fit. He's clearly worked hard to shift the excess timber and is doing pretty big minutes now without any real signs of excessive fatigue. Once Saints are happy with his fitness I'm sure he'll go to playing fewer minutes but being told to wind it up and go all out in short bursts.

The fact the attacking structures are such an utter disgrace probably isn't helping him either. The distribution is so, so slow, meaning most of the time the forwards get the ball stood still with five men rapidly descending on them.

I noticed that and agree, he's been out out there at times to gain match fitness and looks like he's put the effort in as he looks in good shape really.

But come on, we played Wigan in a Good Friday derby at a packed out Langtree park and he was poor. No aggression in his running or defence. That's a big big game for us yet still lacked aggression.

Also, Leeds away in the challenge cup is massive! He couldn't break out a paper bag again.

I get your point but these games he should have fire in his belly, he should be full of emotion but he's dead, the is nothing there at all. You don't need to be committed.

Would wane allow for this? 100% no!

He looks overweight still. I get that we've had a few hard fort battles in the last few weeks and impact injurys are hard to avoid. However, as a few on here have alluded too, I have to start to question the fitness teams. I read that Walsh hardly missed a game for Penrith, he pulls a red vee on and you can see he's got afew niggles. Its makes you think about the Perry situation from a different angle but this was pre Brown so I could be wrong. Wheeler we don't need to go into details. Manu at the beginning of the season was terribly unfit which will have contributed to the injury. Does anybody on here watch training sessions?

I get frustrated with Lomax slow PTB's. Has anyone else noticed this?

No, I agree he's got to do better. He's in a lot better shape now and we need to see the improvement in attitude to match as well. I'll give him one or two games to get into the big games. Now he knows who Wigan and Leeds are I fully expect a better desire. Desire is something that is missing as a club and it's not just Mose with some looking in the mirror to do.

Masoe used in the current setup is what were seeing, he posts good metres, tackles when required (but his line speed is poor) and still will manage a few tackle busts.

An on song, correctly used masoe, still would be all those things that have described him previously. You can't expect a luxury player to rip up trees when the whole team can't get the basics right.

It's the way we use our forwards they are far to flat and practically stood still when they get the ball! Only Sia and wilkin seem to take a run up when driving it in.

If mose and Walmsley ran from deep they would cause damage every time.

Don't know if this is tactics/ set up or the fact we are too slow at releasing the ball or maybe both!

He looks scared of his hamstring. Has to stand up straight before playing the ball.

So what are the fitness guys doing about it? Sweet FA I bet

I don't think it's a fitness thing, more psychological (at least to my untrained eye) - the problem has only cropped up this year and he had a hamstring problem at the end of last year, so I guess he's worried about doing it again?

I wasn't convinced by tonight's display from Saints although glad we got the win, obviously.

But Luke Walsh was fabulous. He was the classiest player on the pitch by a distance. And that inside pass for Lomax was amazing to watch, along with his jinking run for his try. Love watching this guy play. But he won the game for us tonight.

I'm not asking him to pull up trees, I'm asking him to run with some aggression and power. That's basic play for a prop.
