Considering he's only had one game training with the team, he did alright, especially in such a big game. I was pleasantly surprised by his performance.

I thought he did ok today but with the adrenalin surging through him in a good Friday debut against his former club that's only to be expected.

His real tests will come in a month or two's time when the honeymoon period is over and done with. I'd be surprised if he's till in your side come the important game at the back end of the year tbh.

I think that's very harsh, his distribution was fine. The fact we had no structure to our play throughout the game meant he was having to evaluate the situation and choose the best pass, rather than following set patterns. He's certainly a class above Nathan Ashe.

Did nothing particularly bad, did nothing particularly brilliant.

Comments about his distribution are fair but John Clarke does that bit well.
Hardly going to frighten defences, He is not the answer.

Agree, he did a pretty good job under the circumstances. His pass variation looked better than Roby,s, he certainly performed better than the pre match judgement opinions of him.

Just.

Unfair to pass judgement on him in the circumstances. However, I did think any of his short hit up passes were forward (I know everybody passes flat) but that may have been ue to lack of familiarity with his team.

I thought he did alright considering the circumstances.

He isn't a world beater, but he will do a job, and he did just that. His distribution was accurate, and he worked hard up the middle. As he progresses, the more confident he will become, and hopefully we will see him kick on now.

Watching it back his distribution is excellent and his tackling is good. He is never going to be a blockbuster style hooker like Roby but he does the basics thing very well.

Delivered more than expected for me today.

Did we sign Cameron Smith? I'm pretty sure we signed Stuart Howarth myself.

He did ok, problem is we've been spoiled for years now. Dwyer, Cunningham, Higham and Roby all top class players who we've seen at 9 for the past 20 years sadly Howarth isnt in that class

Higham? He's terrible.

He did a good job for us back in the day.

That was then

Pointless signing,he adds nothing.
Very slow distribution to a makeshift scrumhalf onto a makeshift standoff gets you nowhere.
We needed a half so we get rid of one for a very average utility player.
Im not slaging him,he Is what he Is,third choice player at the then bottom placed club.
