Mose is improving with almost every game I reckon in a few more games we are going to see BOOM BOOM time.

Quote: SaintsFan "Pete, all I will say was that he was the player who almost stopped the try being scored which came from Brough's clever kick off and which Hohaia didn't attempt to catch. He flew across the ingoal and almost got to the Hudds player in time. The man was on a mission I tell you.'" He almost made the tackle, like he almost got back into the defensive line after getting back from the kicks. How come he didn't get a tackle miss for the almost? Pete he wasn't much different to normal. The metres stats were inflated by the carries from kick offs it was just that he was on the field for a little longer. Again his tackle count was low. www.superleague.co.uk/report/9991

I didn't say he almost made a tackle. I said he almost stopped the try being scored. Had he done so I'm not sure it would have been considered a tackle as he would have just bashed the player out of the way by sheer force of presence. He can be seen just missing on the screen when the try is reviewed. I saw it with my own eyes at the stadium.

As for his tackles generally, we had others tackling too. It was his go forward which made a massive difference to us. You had to be there to appreciate it. You weren't there so you are not in a position to comment.

I watched it on t.v so I am.
Are you telling me that he got back into the line from the Huddersfield kicks before the second or third tackle?
How many carries did he make from those kicks through? How many times did he take the ball up from within his own twenty?

I think it tells you everything you need to know that it's only wiganers knocking his performance this week, not the saints fans...

Onwards and upwards as they say.

I'll still reserve judgment if he's got better when I'm back but I can't imagine him doing hard yards because he can't get back to do them. He usually waits until play comes to him.

Could that be classed off side ?


I like I've said, I appreciate he was injured and had no pre season, I also know for a fact he came to the club massively overweight (not very professional) but I'm willing to give him another few weeks and if he's not fit by then and going on all cylinders then he shouldn't be a pro rugby player as 5 month is certainly long enough to get fit.

I think posters on here give him a easy ride due to him being the smiling likeable Samoan. I don't think he's been much better than the likes of Lms, walker and co that have come in for critisim.

My biggest problem tho with Mose and one I just couldn't accept if I was his coach or a fellow prop, is the not getting back for the hard yards. Kyle Amor was doing 1st and 4th drive getting out our half when Mose was still walking back! That's not helping team mates. No way would Brian McDermott or Wane stand for that. They are team coaches that have this "die for your team mate" mentality.

Sorry, but you aren't. YOu get no sense of positioning from the TV. All depends on which camera angle they use at a given time.

I'm not discussing this with you of all people because you're just trolling.

Mose had a great game. That's all there is to it.

That's true. I've watched games live and thought certain players played really good, then when watched the game back on tv and had a different opinion.

It's Defo easier to see how a team and players play like. Take Walsh for instance who I watch very closely, you can see him stood behind the line in attack pointing and telling players where to run, where to stand etc which IMO is massive part of the game and you don't see that on tv. It's things like that from Walsh is what we needed and it's hard to see on tv. Lee briers was another like that, he directed everything which is just as important as the killer pass for a try but you don't see all the pointing and moving of players on tv.


So I totally and utterly agree.

100m for a prop is a good return. 155m is a very strong attacking performance however Rogues wants to dress it up.

Mose is still not at his optimum form but over the last 2 or 3 weeks I've seen an improved player. He was our best forward in a dismal display at magic and once again on Friday.

He's no longer as much a liability in defence that he was on his debut and he's finally showing us what we bought him for.

No I'm not, it's my opinion.
He had a decent game yes. a great game no.

As for positioning the worst place to get a decent view of what's going on is behind the posts. You have no idea of the distance between the attack and defence.

You haven't answered my questions have you.
"Are you telling me that he got back into the line from the Huddersfield kicks before the second or third tackle?

I love how invested our resident life-lacking pie friends are is doing Mose down. It would be sad if it weren't so amusing.

I remember how they spent the whole of the off season telling us how Walsh would never attack the line. It's been terrible for us so far

Made an individual break to set Wellens up for his try on Friday.

Much better when runs at the line. It makes him unpredictable
