Doesn't deserve a pay packet this week. Absolutely pathetic display from him. Completely shirked his responsibilities. Never seen so many missed tackles from a second rower! How many times did Catalans collect the ball in their 10, run across the field and just run passed him like he wasn't there. Not first time he's had a defensive display like that!!!! And why did Cummins keep him out there for so long!!!

Didn't think he was that bad to be honest.

I did think he was on about 5mins too long in the 2nd half and looked v tired. The gap between him and Gale was rather too inviting at times. That said, when Langley replaced him that gap was there again.

He missed 3 or 4 in the first half, luckily he was saved as there were other players around him, but he was left on the floor plenty of times. The second half Webb ran passed him TWICE to gain 40m when he should have been nailed. I just dont rate him personally, attacking wise he offers little. No offload game and his tackling is questionable. Today was one of his worst performances.

I honestly thought his defensive display was on par with Worrincy.

Another youngster who was hyped too much.

Didn't have a great game but didn't think he played that poor to be singled out of the 17 IMO

I agree with Bullmania, he was a disgrace

And he's had his contract renewed, oh dear

I think he’s worth bearing with. He’s a young player who’ll get better with experience and is a long way from the finished product. I know his junior coach and he says he has all the tools to make it as a SL player. On yesterday’s performance I’d say Donaldson is in better form.

Red, what hype are you on about? I must have missed it.

Tom's a steady young player who will mature into a solid second rower - His dip in form is understandable given his start to the season.

Some people have short memories on here, I think he was worth a new deal and he'll come good.

Given our limited squad several of our younger players have probably had more game time this year than would be ideal at this stage of their careers. So hats off to them for fronting up. OK there are some areas that need work but I don 't think they warrant some comments being dished out not everyone will be a Beaver or a Hanley

Seconded.

7 missed tackles from the weekend, not good enough for a second rower, particularly one who offers no attack. Addy & Whitehead (when he was here) probably get away with poor defending as they offer something in attack, Olbison doesn't. He only made 41m all game.

Similar age to when Jamie Peacock started to look like he could play a bit, IIRC
