Quote: Leyther14 "Beginning to question the coaching. Reynolds has a great game against Wigan and is dropped. We have the option of 2 backs in the centres and we still have a loose forward there. Hampshire looked good on the wing and we bring in a loanee. Puzzling.'"
I cant share your view that Reynolds had a great 'game' against Wigan. What Reynolds did was give a masterclass in Goal kicking and for that I applaud him
His 'game' though is seriously lacking and he just does not have the tools to lead us round the park, by that, I mean he is slow in mind and body for this level of Rugby! I don't like to criticise a lad who puts the effort in however, a SL Stand Off needs more than effort! His opponent against Wigan run rings us however, he finished on the losing team!
Last night I thought Hampshire had a good game because he took the game to Widnes and broke their defence a couple of times! With Pelisier and Drinkwater we took the game to Widnes and they were struggling, it was the pace of Pelisier and Hampshire which was getting us down the field! Unfortunately for Hampshire, his stray pass probably turned the game back in Widnes favour and, he must learn from this and also, we must give him a fair go!
I was disappointed to see Glen Stewart at first receiver, he's made his name as a tough no nonsense back rower and will never be better than Ridyard, in that roll!
