yep, hughes is there now to help cudjoe and hes the top tackler in the team looking at the stats..

who was there previous patrick...

No because Patrick was usually on the bench. So would have been Chan at beginning of season and then Taai.

yeh was abit of a mix in that position last year, good to get hughes in there now

Ellis seems to be stronger defensively too than previous 7's which must help Leroy out

Not convinced on this one- some of his attempts are shocking- he's missed more than anyone else this season.

agree, Ellis needs to step it up in defence, 5 missed tackles alone on friday, don't think Grix missed that many in the play off defeat at wigan

Anderson on Ellis

Interesting that when you put Missed Tackles and Errors together that there's not much difference at all between Ellis, Ferres and Brough. Personally, I think Ellis is improving game by game and is already starting to show moments that show it may not just be Danny's creativity we have to rely on going forward. I'm happy with how the partnership is progressing and that there is optimism we may not be so dependent on our left hand side attack going forward and we can mix it up a bit more.

That's 4 times now he's shown a dummy near their line and scored - albeit one was disallowed.
