I didn’t notice anything different from last season.

Same guff attack options when in the final 20m.

Same soft defence in the middle.

Big holes in defence on both fringes.

Currie, Walker and Drinkwater offering up the usual ordinary performances.

Same structures.

Can’t play against 12 men.

I didn’t get a sniff of anything new or innovative, in this or the Leigh game.

This what a completely rebuilt Catalans team, worryingly.

Currie should never have been given his recent contract extension by Wire.

We are now stuck with him, or we will have to give him a huge pay-off to get shut..

When I saw that 3 year extension last June I was left scratching my head at both the [itiming [/iand [iduration[/i. A legacy of Powell.


I was hoping that things had changed under Burgess but the same approach to Phibin recently has led me to conclude that not much has changed behind the scenes.

Agreed. Mike McMeeken would fit the bill. I'm sure the DoR has it all in hand.

Still a bit miffed we didn't get Tanginoa (though I think his medical record had something to do with it). McMeeken would be just what we need, but we'll probably use that money on a 4 year Dudson deal.
