| I would like to see Currie replaced with a player in the mould of Mike McMeeken. To be fair to Currie he did a lot of tackling against Wigan, but then so did a lot of our forwards.

| I agree with the lightweight comment. People used to say Liam Farrell was too small to play for GB/England. He may be but he brings a heck of a lot more oomph than our second row.

| I don't think he is a scapegoat, he's just not the attacking threat he was pre-injuries and is in the final year of contract. He is ineffective in brutal, tough games and yet is our longest serving forward. It is reasonable to discuss his performances. He's had a good innings with us and a testimonial. We have done right by him.

| And he has been very good when our pack have been on top. Isn't he in the England squad?

| He’s the same player yesterday as he was last week or all season. He is also the only (maybe one of two) players to be picked for every game Powell has taken charge of, so he must be doing as instructed, or he would have been replaced in the pack rebuild.
Powell even went out and bought an exact replica for the other side of the field, so the plan for that position appears to be a player in that mould.
He’s not a barnstorming back rower, but with momentum he’s really effective. Gets through the line, creates and scores tries and assists line breaks. But behind a hammered pack he can’t do much, especially with the halves don’t create space.
If we’re judging performances based on whether on not he changes his entire game and goes away from the instructions of the coach, then he’s on a hiding to nothing.

| George Williams has been alot less effective in the last 2 games since we lost most of our props, should we get rid of him as well?

| I've Said it for the last couple of seasons, he's no longer good enough. His refusal to tackle people in front of him last season was disgraceful in itself. He will have perceived good games when and only when the goings good, he will be around threatening in attack. But when the stuff hits the fan he isn't going to make the hard yards. Shame his injuries put paid to what was looking as an outstanding career.

| I've heard he's signing a new contract, but on hugely reduced terms. Personally, I would've let him go. Especially if we bring in tanginoa.

Common myth. Missed at a rate of 7.6%, comparable to Farrell and McQueen (6.72 & 7.9) significantly better than Bachelor (12.09) but far behind Bateman (5.13), who granted spent a lot of time in the middle, where misses are less frequent, statistically.

| Currie is a cross between a back and a forward and needs a strong pack to perform at his best. When you are short of props like last night this is what you get.

| I am much more concerned about the back up of our forwards even though we thought we had lots at the start of the season. The fact that our coach won't select our youngsters says so much.
& so does the composition of our bench. We are always likely to be short of a few of our better players & it is going to bite us in the bottom. Currie & Nicholson are fine & it would be good to be able to give them a few minutes rest every now & again.

I don't give a stuff about stats. There was umpteen occasions last season where the opposition were heading for the try line and currie made no attempt to stop them despite being in attendance.
