I thought defensively we were strong, never looked like conceding points, offensively we looked good in parts and in others like a pre-season friendly. We look miles fitter than last season, and better organised.

Taai and Seb ran in strong, I think Tommy might be the new O'Donnell the way he didn't stand any nonsense from the Wire forwards, backs or anyone else who wanted to have a go! McIntosh was impressive, and looked assured under the high ball, both hookers played well, Hinchy is definitely better at LF.

All in all, a good run out and I feel positive about the season ahead.

PS Shannon only had about 10 mins first half and 6-7 at the end so difficult to say, but he didn't really have an opportunity to break the line as we were defending most of the time he was on, and we did alright on that front tonight!

Mamo was at Warrington last night.

yeh mamo was at the game lastnight

clough went well dont get the animosity towards him, hes just the type of hard working prop we will need

one thing for sure is that we have competition for places in the prop department for sure and thats healthy as is the 2nd row competiton

not to mention the full back and centres!!

obrien not pulled up sticks in 2 games ive seen him play compared to leeming but still plenty time as he still new to the club
