| People seem to be forgetting Hurrell was in the Dream Team two out of his three years at Leeds. He's a very good, very explosive player. He hasn't suddenly become this at St Helens.
But Leeds, rightly in my view, judged that his all too obvious weaknesses, which are still glaring, didn't outweigh the upsides and couldn't justify the contract he wanted from us. I backed that when we let him go and still do. He's a luxury only a few teams can afford to have because, for all his positive impact, those mistakes and lapses in concentration can be deadly to less polished or struggling teams.

His break, step inside and short ball leading up to the Matty Lees try was a cracker, great centre play.

Sorry, I'm just going off him twice being in the Dream Team when at Leeds. This "welfare" and "made him lighter" stuff that Saints fans keep making up sure is interesting though.

Just looks like the usual player looking good in a better team stuff to me.

Yes perhaps. I don't think the Leeds teams of 2019 and 2020 were that good though but that may explain it.
