| Quote: WIZEB "Another good piece on Widdop and his red hot form.
As a regular knocker of Widdop, I've been pleasantly surprised by his form so far this year - he finally seems to be playing what's in front of him. I still don't really see him controlling the game though, Josh McCrone is playing that role - Widdop is getting the headlines for the silky plays, but McCrone is stearing the team around the park - Widdop is almost then taking over once in good attacking positions.
It will be interesting to see how he fares when they come across stiff opposition - at the moment, they're comfortably beating the cellar dwellers, but have only just beaten the Sharks and a Cowboys team missing Scott and Thurston - and both the Sharks and Cowboys played terribly against them... I'd like to see how the Saints as a team and Widdop as an individual go when they meet a good team in good form.

| Daniel Sarginson has been a very unlucky boy. He deserves better than a broken arm.
Without Englishman Joseph Greenwood, I doubt that the Titans could have beaten the competition leaders.
Now all we need is a couple more English backs in the NRL and the convict people will start to take English rugby league seriously.

| Because of course, being taken seriously by the Aussies is so much more important than the strength of our own comp...

| Joseph Wardle scored a great try for Newcastle. Commentator Andrew Voss spoke of a [icheer from Huddersfield[/i, and then of how Wardle was a swap for Jake Mamo organised by Nathan Brown. This was great publicity for English players, the English game, and Super League. The convicts are being forced to treat English rugby league with more respect.

| A stellar performance from Gareth Widdop in the Dragons win over Manly.
A dink to the corner for a try.
A cross-field kick for a try.
A feign to kick then short pass for a try.
An interception try.
A 40/20.
8/9 converted with the boot in his 20 point haul.

| Gareth Widdop last weekend ensured that he will be in the England starting lineup for the World Cup -- if he can stay uninjured until then.
