I was completely impartial and I’m a Wigan fan, so I’d be more biased toward the club in theory. I’d agree with what you’ve heard aswell re favourites and ruthless.

I thought he went pretty well again. He looks much fitter than he did when I saw him at Leigh and that looks to be really helping him. He wouldn’t have been a Wane style prop because he stands up in the tackle and continues to try and wrestle and drive his legs forward. He looked for the offload yesterday as well and did pretty well in defence. All in all it’s been a really solid opening couple of games for him.

like previously mentioned did well runs hard and tries to make metres instead of hitting the ground while clubb on the other hand ...... enough said !

Clark looked a handful again. Very solid start and looking promising for the rest of the season. Unusual for us to have a couple of props, alongside Bullock, who make a real impact off the bench and bring something different. I think we've been so used to 'more of the same' style rotation of our props that having 2 come on who look to keep their feet, bust tackles and offload is really adding options. Good to see.

I feel I have to mention Clubb as I've been so vocal about his failings over the first few weeks. Yesterday was much better. Increased his workload significantly and, perhaps more importantly, was making himself available as an option all the time he was on. Couple of good touches (his eagerness to get to the loose ball and his 'slip catch' being the highlight) and all in all a performance more in keeping with that of a senior prop.

In an ideal world I'd still like him to be more aggressive in his carries and look to bust the line and he also needs to up his game time by another 10 minutes or so (I think he did 31 yesterday) but, all in all, much better from TC.

It was a joy to see our forwards actually... going forward! (And I include Clubb in that)
Gives the backs a platform to create.
RL is a simple game when it's broken down into basics. Just need to get the discipline sorted, especially at the back end of the tackle count, and we'll be reet.

What i don't understand with Clubb is why he isn't on the bench and come on after 25-30 minutes of the first half have a rest at half time and do another 10-15 minutes,starting with Bullock and Partington
