| I like a centre with presence. They attract attention and that can give a winger that half a yard to get away.
King has presence, and having a stinking game v Leigh doesn’t suddenly turn him into a bad player.
Absolutely I’d consider dropping him for last week, however in Sam I trust.
Should he play, I fully expect him to be in skys mom short list.
I would not be surprised to see most of our tries come through King’s hands.

Yeah it is depressing isn't it?

My comments were not based on 1 game, albeit it was a terrible performance. If he was on "normal" money I wouldn't feel as animated, but he's one of our best paid players and his performances do not justify that remuneration (in my view).
His stats are pretty average. He neither has a lot of assists nor is he a strike centre. Since we have stopped kicking highballs to him he has not been as potent.

| Perhaps it is also the fault of our kicking duo that King isn't making the most of the high ball. How about kicks closer to the post or up in the air from the half backs so centre & winger could challenge for the ball? It would also make Thewlis's kicks easier.

CTW
Ashton Lindop Wrench Thewlis
Hayes ANOther (or Williams).

Think Dufty and Williams are contracted to end of 2026. By the start of 2027 season CTW & Lindop will be 20/21 so fits quite nicely.

| Dudsons already signed for a championship team, can't remember who though.
And Bullock hopefully will stay at Salford or sign somewhere else, been watching his games for Salford when he plays and he looks like he's past his peak and on a downward trojectory.
Also i wonder what has happened to Max Wood,? played some really good games but has dropped out of favour and can't even get 18th man. Tom Whitehead was 18th man, so if he gets ahead of wood something is seriously off there.

| Whitehead covers more bases, middle, 13, 6 probably that bit of versatility just gives him the edge

It was shown in the SKY pre-match interview with Sam Burgess.
He also said that Max Wood trained for a month with Wire to prove his worth prior to being recruited, and was only paid £100.00p per week.
So all credit to the kid for having the faith in himself to do that.

Ahh right my recording had no pre-match interviews which is odd, just recorded from them just about to come out the tunnel
