Cooper will be thinking about underpants and King, well..

Paul Vaughan for MOS. Bloke is absolute top class.

I am also looking forward to this Grand Final rehearsal

You could bring out your own brand of underpants too named: Just browny

Good game last night, thought we (HKR) couldve won it in the end, Coote can't kick a goal to save his life and had a couple of passes stuck, well its all ifs a buts.
Could this year really be your year, maybe. A lot will depend on keeping Smith fit, been your MoM 2 weeks on the bounce now.

Your second try was a mile forward so bit rich to moan about the ref

Probably that come October they will be lining up against St Helens at Old Trafford.

The two tries we conceded were relatively simple & similar. Defence coach will know what to focus on this week.

Do you think?... personally think any side with Cooper and King in their first choice side aren't going to be anything special.

One thing our start has shown massively, is how much we overrated Cooper - He's a good solid prop, but would you take him back now ahead of any of our props?

As for King, he's the absolute epitome of average. How he got the supposed inflated contract he's on from us is one of life's mysteries.

So while I wouldn't be writing Wigan (or anyone) off right now, I don't think Cooper or King are going to be sat there thinking they are any better off as a result of going there, with regards to getting themselves a GF winners medal.

There must be players queueing up to be on his agent's books.

What Dizzy isn’t getting is that attacks run lines to hit small men in one on ones, as Salford were doing last week. It’s the defensive structure that is found out, not the ability of a halfback or all the backs to make one on one tackles. Players don’t suddenly become poor defensive if a forward runs over or through them once singled out. There ought to be two other guys either side working as a unit. If one man gets broke in a one on one, the other two defenders are at fault.

There were fans all over social media going crazy to get him re-signed.
Not me I’d like to add, no player is bigger than the club. I can only recall 3 games where King was very good. I’d had kept his brother though. He had a good game last night too.

Excellent start to the campaign, but the proof in the pudding will be whether we can string a run of performances together at the beginning of September. So far, performances and results have been better than I expected, but that hasn't raised my expectations for the entire season. I'm looking forward to the run of Catalans (a), Wigan (h) and Saints (a) with some confidence that we'll be competitive, rather than with total dread. If we can string three good performances together in those three games, that would bode very well for the rest of the season.

I’ll admit to being one of those wanting him tied up to us long-term. There weren’t many decent centres around and he was just starting to look like the real deal and on an upward trajectory. I didn’t realise that was as good as it would get. Somehow I imagined if we had lost him to Saints for example, he’d go on to become some sort of world-class talent that we’d rue the day we let him slip away.

Talk about beating myself up.
