Three great wins, and performances in a row. Energy and intensity has been tip top and got the rewards.

Look I'm sure every team is thinking similar sentiments currently, but best thing for me is I genuinely think there is loads more that can come from us. Few players out, and a fair bit still not clicking and sometimes not turning dominance into points. If we can just put the finishing touches to the standards we've been setting in recent weeks then oooof.

If Field and French can just work on not only their pass execution, but their patience and picking when to throw them, we’ll be an unbelievable threat. It’s tough conditions tonight, so the lack of execution can be forgiven but there were a few times when French could’ve just held it back a little and continued to build pressure. It’ll come with better weather, more games back in the fullback shirt and as and when him and Field are in the same team and build those relationships.

You wasn’t watching the same Farrell as me then. He took the ball up in every set Wigan had.

Really?!

Assuming this post was made with tongue firmly in cheek.

Faz is a machine but I do sense he’s carrying a bit of something. Not that he’s not playing well enough but he looks just shy of his usual Herculean, freakish, sub human best. If there is something, there will be a decent opportunity to rest it against Wakey. We can’t go with too many youngsters but there’s a chance to give one or two a go and rest a couple of lads, who have run their blood to water these past few games.

I understand that he won’t play for a few weeks. We wIll miss him but time for the team to step up. Ellis seems to be picking up. Hill/Nesemba to pick up the gauntlet.
Great result.

I think that’s a wise move tbh. I’m not a fan of players pulling out of international duty but if he’s not right, he shouldn’t be risked against France (we need to look at a few younger players anyway) and that would give him 3 weeks now before our game against Hull. We’ll see how we go with the disciplinary but we could have KPP, Isa and Smithies available for next week and Nsemba looks due a shot. Pretty excited to see what these young lads can do as and when the chances come.

Probably more than that dour bar steward Powell.

I agree with the first part of your post, but not the second element. I am happy to let the young guns have their heads but not too many at once.

On a dry patch we will hand out a few hidings.
