That disallowed try was definitely not a knock on! Dunno where the ref dreamt that one up! Yeah it was a good break Phelps made but I still think he looked a bit weak on those 1 on 1's. Richards or Amos might of caught him.. EDIT Yep probably still getting back to fitness..

bit worried about his form tbh. The sooner Roberts is back the better!

Maybe with a few more games his good form will return.

I thought Karl Pryce was this season's nominated scapegoat?

People need to calm down a bit. Yes he didn't look at his best, but who did during that performance. The reason I didn't vote in the MOM thread was because I was struggling to pick three of our 17 that warranted a vote. He like all the others that underperformed will get better.

We don't have anyone in our team who is faster than Barnett, so the fact that Phelps got beat doesn't mean he's now a bad player. One on one the attacking player has an advantage over the fullback anyway, and a player with such pace is always dangerous when put through a gap.
Phelps will just be trying to get back into the swing of things. He was a bit iffy in the friendly matches before he found his feet and I suspect it's the same thing this time as he's coming back from injury and a couple of games left out of the squad.

Absolute garbage, Richie Barnett was absolutely flying and the first try came from a breakdown in play and give Yare credit the play came when Gleeson went to wing and Bailey was centre after Goulding went off. Sorry guys everyone was below par yesterday it was too easy and we were always just going to have enough. Not my preference but that's how it was

We've all been spoilt by seeing Amos playing at FB, and now that he's injured and Phelps has returned it's perhaps showing Cameron up a little. It's a no brainier that when both are fit Amos would get the FB role every time.

We all new that Phelps would have to play well to be resigned, and with Amos doing such a great job at FB, and us having such depth in are backline Phelps may struggle for a new contract next year.

Same here - But only so that he can get back out on the wing.

Phelps is still the best FB at the club IMO, but is clearly lacking match fitness.

I'm sure that I saw him retching during the Salford match.
That tells me that he's asking his body to do far more than it's capable of right now.

He still looked a little out-of-shape at sheffield, but given another match or so, I think he'll be fine.

Let's be honest.
None of our players really got out of second gear at Sheffield (because they - mistakenly - thought they didn't need to).

Hopefully, Cam will get himself sorted soon, and Amos can slot back in to the wing position, as with Cam, Amos and Pat all on the field simultaneously we have a formidable back-line

I disagree, Phelps was just as good linking up as Roberts has been at the start of the season.

would like to see phelps given a try at 6 with tomkins 7
