Just one question -why is Charnley still at at HKR when we were so woefully weak in the centre positions yesterday?

Because we only had one centre out and Charnley obviously wasnt going to get picked. Marsh has been the first choice back up all season and was chosen to replace Gleeson.

Your kidding, right?

For what it's worth I thought during the game we should have switched Pryce to centre and Marsh to the wing. I don't think Pryce was doing that badly but his lack of pace was quite worrying at times. After Marsh bombed what would have been a simple walk in try had he passed to Pryce I thought we'd have been much better off having someone with decent handling and a bit of size in the centres and someone with Marsh's pace on the wing.

As for Pryce's defence, they were trying the little kicks to the corner trying to turn him round. No one can claim Pryce is going to trouble anyone for pace but to be honest nearly any winger would struggle to deal with kicks in behind when they have to turn and chase the ball. The winger always has the advantage. Goulding has struggled with those before, as has Pat Richards.

However, they used that tactic against us in the previous games as well. That time Goulding dropped back 5 to 10 yards on the 4th and 5th tackles and dealt with the kicks easily. I think some of our players weren't thinking about defence and were too focused on how they were going to attack.

I personally think Pryce is too slow for a winger. There's no doubting that Pryce can do very well there. With his height and size there is plenty about him that can trouble a defence, but I just don't see him being able to cement a place in the side on the wing. I do think centre would suit him better, but it would probably need a run of a few games in that position to really get him up to speed. I don't see him being favoured over Charnley in that position though.

My opinion is if we let Price go to another Super League club he will not come back to haunt us.

You know exactly what I meant and so does everybody else. Their big right wing was better than our big right wing. He made breaks against a better player than Pryce faced on his side of the pitch at looked 10 times more threatening. I draw your attention to him because he is of similar build to Pryce but far more mobile and threatening.



No. Do you?

I wouldn't be too disappointed if we were to let Pryce go. I'd say he's been fairly solid, but we have better players in his position.

I dont think Pryce is a rugby player. He is simply a big lad with bags of unfufilled potential

Sadly i dont think he will ever reach his potential, thats why i think we should let him go

That is a cracking assessment of him

Josh Charnley played very good yesterday a Salford he scored a try and took Salford on at speed and his defence excellent.
Why was Marsh or Pryce picked instead of Charnley i dont no seeing Charnley has played 5 Super League games and has scored in 3 of the games ????

Hodgson the best finisher in the game?



The cover tackles Pryce had to make were because he was caught out of position. He shouldn't have had to make them in the first place and it put unnecessary pressure on the side & gave Huddersfield great field position.
