| Would anybody else be willing to remove him from the salary cap, and get a better forward?
He took in one carry last night and I personally (if hes not injured) think that is disgusting.

He wasn't on the field for big minutes and was the dummy cut out player and did around a fare share in defence.
Wire play running from the acting half with outside backs.
There's not a great deal he can do if he doesn't get a pass towards a good carry stat.

Reminds me of that old story about Ged Byrne at Wigan. At half time, John Monie was laying in to the team (they were probably winning but he liked to be a perfectionist) and he asked Ged Byrne why he had only made one tackle all game. Byrne looked up at him and said "would you run at me?"
Doesn't work as well as an argument for only taking one carry though.

| Touching the ball once in a 20 minute spell is unacceptable. Don’t care if he was a good dummy runner or not he should be ashamed sitting in the video session.
BMM is in the same bracket. He’s 18 stone +, he can’t pass, not quick, can’t play 80 minutes and has no lateral movement. Therefore he’s a prop. Back in my day someone that big staying out side to run at half backs was called a s...house, not an impact forward. Yet Hughes has to go in the middle so he can come on, then go back when he’s blowing. Get in the middle, roll your sleeves up and get some work done.

BMM regularly did big minutes at Salford, 60+ easy. I get the impression he does fairly similar here, does he generally go off once he comes on?
Either way, the minutes BMM is playing is down to the coaching staff rather than his capabilities.

Coaches rarely take off players who are playing well, showing little fatigue and show genuine interest. He rarely carries that ball in our half, does little ‘graft’ to get tired, hardly the workhorse type.

Don’t want him to be the workhorse type, he isn’t a workhorse type. He didn’t get in to the SL Dreamteam by being a workhorse, or play off the bench in a very talented Tonga team by being a workhorse.
We need to use him better, I don’t want to see him carting it up the middle (not that he does), I want a talented halfback giving him good ball close to the line, or have him as a foil for the centre / half to go for the line.
I don’t think BMM has been great this year, but I don’t think we’ve used him well either.
