That was a very good performance today. Team is coming along nicely.

Do you put it down to coaching?

In terms of attack, Smith used to tell the players to play what's in front of them. Great when you've got the biggest pack in the league and spend plenty of time on the opposition try-line with Briers and Monaghan calling the shots.

However, I think this current squad is one that will thrive on structure and following game-plans. I can see Roberts and Brown being successful when we have players running lines in attacking territory. Just follow the same pattern and spend the rest of the time defending like hell when we're not in the opposition 20.

Quite possibly, although I tend to agree with easy's synopsis without opening up the debate on recruitment and transition from Briers and Monaghan running the show. Hughes was poor last year, so here's one for you, he's not a bit of a kid does the player have any responsibility?

He has responsibility to following the training programme, diet, and game plan. I think I agree with the post above that a more structured attack has helped him together with a return of confidence. God knows what TS was doing with them in 2017.

I think it was not seeing the woods for the trees with Hughes.
He was asked to cover backrow and 3/4 and was ever present trying to do it hard with a front row that were pants.
What Hughes endured last season against diversity has made him a better player. Under his form I wouldn't swap him for his Wigan equal Bateman.
Hughes was asked a lot of and did what he could even though it made him look calamitous.
