Wish someone had taught Jon Wilkin to kick this well ten years ago.

MASSIVE boost having Vea back.

Great performance, always good to see Vea back, he's a massive handful for defences, and just runs all day. Mose played well too, hopefully he can keep that level for the rest of the season. Think Walshy is starting to look the business again.

We are going to miss josh Jones big time. He's been quality the last 5/6 weeks and a threat with the ball. He does fo the odd silly thing like early in the game last night but I think he's a big miss next for us.

His two catches from kicks last night was top quality.

I agree, I never quite understood why people started saying he wasn't good enough. Not been his best season apart from the last couple of weeks, but he certainly hasn't been bad. I've always rated him.

Its a strange one he was a bit hit and miss first half of this season, then soon as he signed up for Union his game picked up to the level we expected from him. My biggest worry is Quinlan looks scared of the physical stuff, non existence defence and could,t get rid of the ball quick enough to Swifty to run the ball out, happening in almost every game.

I said this about Quinlan the first time I seen him play. His defence is worst ive ever seen from a saints fullback. It's the fact he can't tackle but the fact he just Doesnt want to.

He's got good hands and good support play but his kick returns are shocking. I don't think he's beat a man all year on a kick return.

He's up there with one of the worst fullbacks ive seen in a saints shirt. I can only think of Leon Felton who's worse.

Given the problems we've had just putting a body in the full back jersey this season we should be thankful Quinlan's as good as he is. The truth is we could have been much, much worse off.

But what does he give us? Yes he supports well and he's hot good hands but the kick return on the first play is the most important carry of the set. It can determine how the set goes and he's dead with the ball or flings long passes to swift which gives defenders time to get up on us.

I can see why he Doesnt play NRL as he's not physically up for it.

He needs to play better than this though he's had enough games now to settle into the structure, I don't think I,ve seen him make one successful one man tackle yet. Just get the feeling come "knock out rugby" time it will cost us, like St Pete says he doesn't play NRL its far too physical for him. Somehow we need to give him less exposure to a one man tackle but thats easier said than done I suppose.

He's got pace so why not try and run around the defence?

Beggars can't be choosers. A half-dozen games is hardly time enough to integrate fully into one of the most difficult positions on the pitch. It took Talau a full year to get going at centre. And let's not forget that he's a half-back recently moved into that role.

There's no point wailing about it. It's not like we've got a dozen young full-backs champing at the bit for a game.

It's the fact he won't do any contact in attack and defence which has nothing to do with only being here one week or one year.

Tackling at fullback and kick returns are not effected by game plans or being here a short time. Id kick to him all day as he cant hurt anyone with the ball.

The is no excuse for that williams try when he was basically skinned

Thats correct, its the very basic element of the game to be able to tackle, his timing to defend is the worse I,ve seen in the Superleague and Championship. Great when he's being put through a gap and picking up an offload, but he is very much a passenger in defence, lets hope he can sort it out.

The was always a reason why he doesn't play first grade and that's it. Funny that some wanted us to sign him for next year lol

No different to Steve Prescott. I saw him beaten in a very similar manner by Sean Edwards at Knowsley Road.

He has neither the build nor the bulk to be a fullback. But he's all we've got.

Deal with it.
