To be honest i don't think he was anything special tonight either Roby, Wheeler or Wilkin was your best in my opinion. You played with a bit of intensity and the Giants collapsed as a result of it.

Quote: Magic Superbeetle "I must confess Thompson also had a very good game in defence from what I remember - were still struggling a little for go forward though - we struggled at times with Crabtree in particular but they put their body on the line and you can't ask for more than that!

Oh, and you'll be interested to know, we suffered the "Amor coming off" dip in intensity when Mose came off tonight...'"


Cavy believe I missed Mose play well! Are we talking on par with his other games he was "our best forward" or we talking played very well?

Thompson is all heart. Runs like a train. He always does his defence but IMO he's lacking some size at the moment to make the hard drives. I feel how he grows will determine of he is a avg super league player or he goes on to better things.

He made close to ten yards on every single carry he made, including plenty coming out of his own 20 with 3/4 pressuring him.

I really don't understand what people want Mose to do? I think he'll need to kill somebody in a tackle before he gets any praise.

I find a few on here think he's played well if he does few decent runs and does 20 odd 2nd / 3rd man tackles. I've been ever disappointed with him if I'm honest. He doesn't run his weight. I question his heart and if he wants to be on the field at times.

I'd be surprised if he made less than 130m and he made a substantial amount of 'hard yards' as you've been asking him to do. If you've recorded the game it's well worth watching back.

I was more impressed with Thompson and Greenwood. Thompson hits hard and greenwood is very awkward to tackle and stop gaining meters by the looks of it.

Ran very strongly today and took a huge responsibility. A couple of times I noticed he took more than 1 carry per set.

Yeah I agree, Thompson was very good today. Strong carries in tight situations and hit very hard in defence, Greenwood has an eye for a gap and the strength and speed to exploit it. Looking forward to seeing how these two develop along with Savelio.

He made some good meters but i wouldn't call them barnstorming runs like he is capable of i don't think he made more than 12 runs if i am honest. Went of after the first 12 minutes and came back on in the 2nd half if i am correct. Used silverwood as a good blocker for the try tho.

Lets just say it wasn't a youtube highlight clip

Just run his weight mate. That's all I want him to do. He's 20st + and stands at 6ft 5in and at times couldn't break out a paper bag.

When watching him, he reminds me of the big fat tall kid at school that used to rampage thru the other kids but then hits 16 years of age and starts getting tackled and doesn't like it.

IMHO he's been shocking. Wane wouldn't pick him at Wigan that's for sure. I'd rather play against him than have him in my team. I'm still giving him more time to settle but I'm not holding my breath.

Christ! I bet he was on his knees resting after that.

Don't think I've ever seen him take a 1st drive in or drive off a tap so far.

But that's fine. If we had Amor, laffranchi and walmsley by his side, he could afford to be a bit more of a "barnstorming" luxury - what he did do was lead the pack, always had his hand up to take it in, always made metres after impact, found the floor to start a roll a couple of occasions and helped the kids around him. He typified his performance by being involved in the first 4 tackles in the match. Wasn't flashy, but was a very good prop forward performance. Was his best performance by quite some way, and a very good performance in general. Especially when you consider being overrun by huddersfields large pack was one of my greatest concerns, he played a large part in putting us on top (that and Huddersfield were worse than we were last week!)

Took his try well too!

He did two stints in the first half totaling 20 minutes. He then played around 20 minutes in the second half too, for a man of his size and type of player that's long minutes.

When the likes of Laffranchi, Amor and Walmsley are back that will allow him to go back into his usual role of high intensity impact. You simply can not perform that same role with the amount of minutes he is currently playing, it isn't viable at all.

He was about as fit as a chain smoking, obese grandad then though!

I have a feeling he'll have a strong finish to the season.
