O'Brien was much better last night. I've been cautiously impressed with him up to now but expressed concerns that he hasn't been doing enough in a game. Yesterday he had been clearly told to up his involvement (and partnership with Briers) and he certainly showed what he is capable of.

Great performance from him. He's got good speed too,the fact he could slow down in a breakaway and play Riley in for a try. Looks like he's been playing with briers for years.

Ps the last conversion was a chip accross to try and catch leeds out to get a try.

But what a try

I thought he was excellent last night, but Briers was head and shoulders above anyone hence making him man of the match.

Who was the sky man of the match?

O'Brien. I presume Briers was the sponsor's mom.

A nice selection headache for TS, Richie Myler is going to have to fight his way back into a starting place

He wasn't head and shoulders above Chris Hill. Thought he had a great game last night.

So our future spine will be

1 Ratchford
6 O'Brien
7 Myler
9 Dwyer
13 Currie


Happy with that

O'Brien was the sponsors MOM

That will do me. Flesh it out with the likes of Rhys Evans, Riley, Cooper, Harrison, Hill, Laithwaite (and possibly Bateman) who are all under 25 and we look ok for the next 10 years or so.

So he got both, deserved them both too.
