He would at least look better if they found one long enough to cover his gut!

His conditioning looks abysmal - un-recognisable from the prop who played for Manly and Australia.

You can't be serious! He may not be playing to his best but to say Perry's soft is a bit ridiculous.

All this seems a bit harsh to me. He looks to be improving and wasn't on his own in a poor showing.

Mr Baileynext week might be able to bring out the animal in Perry, I hope so.

Hi Stevo. Has he heard of the 'link'? Surely he has the knowledge factor to know about this.

Bailey is banned isn't he?

yes he got 3 games.

Laffranchi and Clough were easily better than him yesterday and he really needs to start getting involved and stop going backwards. I want him to do well but don't sugar coat it, he has been a waste.

I thought he did ok last night, nothing special but decent.

Laffranchi, like Hohaia, needs time. Christ! Even Jamie Lyon took ten games to bed in.

Perry went alright last night I thought, as did Laffranchi making a couple of half breaks and a break near the end.

I don't think people are calling them bad players or saying they they playing to bad but they ain't the players we require in the positions Royce has them playing.

Well, I totally agree that Hohaia is being misused. The guy should be given the seven shirt and the responsibility to organise the team. Anything less is crazy, IMO.

Laffranchi is doing ok. It's not like he's playing out of his capabilities.

Perry was good against Hull (a reletively short stint) and alright against Braford imo.

He's heavy; heavy in the tackle and heavy going forward. He drives well once held. When we had him and TP on against Hull we were really starting to get the wood over them upfront before Turner pulled out a wonder play and then we imploded with penalties.

He also talks a lot in defence, which I like the look of.

Our props are all capable of grafting yards and defending well. What we don't seem to be able to do is dominate the play the ball area. Clubs seem to be able to slow our play down without giving away penalties.

Graham's only flaw imo was that he wasn't too quick on the floor. You don't need all your props to be able to do it all of the time, but its got to come from somewhere. This is an area we need to improve on - the wrestle.

Perry is not our problem. Our 5 props are of good enough combined quality to compete at the top end of the table.

chicken sh** just to scared to play against the saints

Great game from the big man tonight.
