Apparently Thewlis took a knock at the end. Any ideas?

I'm thinking last 3 games have markedly improved performances. Big test vs Wigan.

Twas in the try saving tackle north west corner, he looked pretty beat up on the wing while play wound down, that being said he looked like he'd taken a shot to the ribs in the first set.

Just seen him talking on Wire TV and he looked very happy & relaxed.

I half agree with you Clutch, the half I don't is your opinion of Dean's kicking from hand. I actually thought it was excellent (I'm trusting my eyesight here Magoo-esque at times) but i think he grubbered well set up try's with it forced a drop out we looked a lot better with our last tackle plays than we have done for quite some time.

Didn't think we'd get a comfortable win today, and would have taken sneaking the points in a scrappy affair at 3 this afternoon. Now I'm beginning to believe that Widdop and Ratchford are part of the problem, rather than the solution.

Well done to the young lads who are developing very well, and at last our academy set up is looking to bear the fruit that we've needed for a long time. Riley Dean ought to get more game time on the back of todays performance.

We need to offer Dean a contract PDQ and get him signed-up on a long term basis.

His current contract expires at the end of this season.

Ratchford, or the crazy deification of him has been part of the problem for a while. Thewlis’ stats have almost surpassed Ratchfords for the entire of last season….after 6 games and in a side doing comfortably worse. Bench at best from now on, Widdop can just go.

Spoke to him briefly after the game, and he wasn`t in any discomfort then, just on cloud 9 after scoring a hat trick.

Great win today, although there is something drastically wrong when we are better when both of our marquee halves aren't playing!

Sign up Riley Dean, if he gets a run now he shouldn't lose his shirt, regardless of who is available. Thewlis is already there, no way he should lose that fullback shirt now except for injury or a drastic drop of form.

Need to cut out the mistakes for Wigan game .Huddersfield started to claw their way back for a spell in 2nd half but luckily they made more errors than us. Perhaps a lot of the problems today though weren't helped by the swirling wind.
Amazing how many chances we lost in the first 20 minutes on our left side with wrong decisions & lack of composure ,we could have had the game won by half time , but more game time for the youngsters should rectify that.

Already said this earlier in the thread, would be a travesty if Thewlis is dropped because the golden 3 are all fit, got to drop either Ratchford or Widdop if that’s the case.

We are playing Wigan one game before their semi final with Saints, so hopefully they will have one eye on their Challenge Cup game.

Good point...and hopefully they will..barring any knocks/injuries stick withe same team..be a shame to drop anyone especially the young lads..
