Quote: Jukesays "And 25+ appearances this season (Basically picked every time he's been fit) seems to suggest MAguire does rate him.
As far him not Driving it in Hard, Are you having a Laugh! I do admit that he's got to work on his Penalties etc but the Impact at Contact and how much he takes out of the Opposition forwards in attack & Defence is Pretty Good.
PS
All this talk of him Hitting & Dropping! Some people must be watching a different game to me, it's only a couple of months ago the ones who dint' want Prescott in the team were complaing he did too much wrestling etc AFTER contact and O'Carroll was a better player because he hit & Dropped and got a Quicker PTB!
Basically, until O'C or Mossop etc are back i.e Next season, then we Go with 4 x Main line props & 3 x Back rowers & a Back up 9.
It also coincided with Piggy going off and Tuson & MM coming on, don't try & lay it all at Prescott/Fekas Door.
I agree that we lose something when Coley/Fielden go off, but it certainly Helps when it's Prescott & Feka coming on to replace them rather than Tuson/Hansen.
I think it's been underestimated how much we missed Feka in the Leeds game to carry on the momentum that Fielden & Coley gave us, it was as Big a problem as losing Deacon and reshuffling.'"
For me the turning point last time was Piggy going off and Eastwood coming on, we could not deal with him last time out and he changed the game, gave them all the forward momentum. If we attempt to tackle him like we did last time out, ie 2 up nobody down round the legs he may very well do the same this week too when he comes on.
