Loved the way Dufty ghosted through the line for the 1st try! We certainly have more attacking threats in the team than for a long time.

I have watched it a few times now & I'd be surprised if he got a ban. But who knows.

Looking back at the highlights, Dufty looks like a capture. His timing for coming into the line is superb.

It was ridiculous how far back he came from for that drinkwater break.

And still had gears to go up that last 10.

I'd like him to put a bit more pressure on the defence, just keep some hesitation and doubt in defenders minds.

It made my eyes water at the time!
Straight arm wild swinging tackle.
Didnt contact (i think) but....

Sam wasn't malicious and it looked worse than it was.

No idea what view the disciplinary committee will take.

Looking forward though, if Sam does get banned then I hope Dudson will be ready.
It'll be another week of one in and one out.

Bullock and Harrison are out for a month or so (purely my guess based on what Ive read). Back maybe round 9 although I expect Jimmy to be on the sidelines longer.
Maguire back for round 8 (Cats), and hopefully Sam too. I see that match as a real crunch one. (Not taking Cas and Hull lightly though - especially because of the Powell/Cas connection and Smith/Wire one).

We're leaning heavily on Vaughan and Makaele at the moment, and after that it's Wigan and .... Saints. Thick and fast. If they get through that lot they'll have done amazingly well.
I thought we'd signed one too many props, but looks like we need them all.

At some point we will lose, and for me how we react is going to be the true test of the team.
