Could have gone to any number of players..But i've chosen Carvell fantastic first stint from the big guy...

Solomona easily had his best game of the season last night too, maybe his best in the PnB.

I went for Myler, thought he was great in defence and finally showed himself as an extra dimension to the attack, something he has rarely showed yet. He was tackling well above his weight. His try sealed it, and he showed a lot of pace! I remember him having a good game against Wigan at the Dodging Wembley stadium last year, and he showed his class again this year.

Anyone else think Smith sent Wood and Solomona out on the pitch with a strict 'no offloading' rule?

Thankfully yes, the last thing we needed was the ball being thrown around everywherem we just needed Sol and Woody to run it in strongly.

Without a doubt Mark. Whole team was obviously under instructions not to look for the off-loads. Win the ground and get quick play the balls was the order of the day and if you don't do what Smith says you don't play next week.

couldnt agree more.... Myler has been brilliant with ball and without... he has really upped his game. The speed and accuracy of his pass is fantastic.

Did anyone else notice our tactic of turning the player back towards their own line as opposed to on there back?

Yep. Higham did this absolutely loads.

Carvell for me - sucked the life from the pies . Honourable mentions for Blythe, Myler and the Monas Bros.

Yes that was another point I wanted to mention. It is these little improvements to the core skills that are having a massive effect overall.

Briers for me. Ran the show.

Blythe for me but for some strange reason I clicked on Clarke...

Must be out of habit....

Not a clue how you go about picking any one from 17 these days. Our team ethic is outstanding and probably only matched by Wigan at present (last evening excepted !)

Certain positions will always stand out in a perfect team performance, but for the past 6 weeks all 17 have carried out their individual roles to near perfection.

The guy who deserves the credit is Lord Tony of the Shire and his support staff - his building of this current squad of 25 players is to be applauded. He brings in Mathers - dodgy call that one Tone - 2 CC wins later !!!!! Then decides we need a ball playing kicking machine - bit old ain't he Tone ? 7 games in = genius decision !!

MOM = Lord Smith
