The problem is the sliding execution of the sliding defence on both edges for wire. It doesn't matter who the winger is. It's been the same all season. The guys on the fridges of the ruck are getting fixed too easily and the edge defenders sliding inwards rather than outwards, so the wingers are getting left with 2 or 3 on 1. Communication needs to improve across the whole defensive line. It's too easy to just blame the winger.

Kev is in for me, he gives his all, even when he's been left out,, always keen to get stuck in,, capped off with great try,, well done kev!!

This will please quite a few of us, he was offered a years extension a couple of weeks ago (so old news to one or two).
I'm delighted to know he excepted it with both feet in the air.

Kev was hung out to dry at Widnes & Wigan though because the defence went the wrong way on several occasions.

It was interesting to see that he wasn't left out to dry on the right side as he seems to be on the left...?!
He did jump the line on one occasion v Leigh, so he wasn't entirely without some blame. However, he was from Earth to the Moon away from being scapegoated.

Would & should have had a hat trick in the Leigh game, if Laithwaite had passed to him in the first half, when Laithwaite broke through, with Penny unmarked outside him.
