glynola, wot point are you trying to make? the point in his thread is that the team are confident and united, no more, he aint blowing his own trumpet as you seem to think, he,s talkin on behalf of OUR TEAM.

Purely from a performances perspective;

He's doing fine but I'd just like to see an extra dimension to his game.

I'd like to see more awareness when it comes to taking on the defence opposed to receiving the ball and just running direct & straight. I'd like to see more footwork, offloads and an overall more threatening approach to his attacking game.

His defence is fantastic and his ability to hit a gap near the oppositions tryline is too, but I'm not sure it's enough to hold his place when there is a queue of some very good back rowers snapping at his heels.

Agree with that but considering the Hock situation I can see that being a bit a lifeline for him and probably see him here for a good while longer.

Is there a proper time to declare a team "dark horses" ? We're hitting a bit of form, getting into the better league positions. We've beaten Leeds and, given the injuries they've incurred in the last few weeks, there will rarely be a better time to play Saints at KR (though beating them is easier said than done). Dark Horses is all we are at this stage, as HH said.

If we were any better placed, surely we'd be contenders rather than dark horses. I really can't see what you're getting at, all he's said is that we are still in with a chance, something you wouldn't necessarily have said six weeks ago.

you want to get out bit more lad , thats just normall run of the mill stuff in that interview
