Well done to them both, that build up to the carmont try was just superb from them both. I just get the feeling that one little mistake and Noble wouldnt hesitate to drop them for Mathers/Smith.

Fielden he got smashed about everywhere as per usual

And did his usual trait of dropping the ball at vital times in the game....

to be fair to him he had a better game after he got poked in the eye, it seemed to fire him up abit

I thought he was solid in the second half but so far hasn't continued his excellent form at the end of last season

IMO your young players Tomkins and Ainscough stepped upto the plate well, gave you a fresh angle to work from. Just a shame that when Nobby has a full team to select from, he will replace these talented kids for the overrated, over paid garbage.

A typical coach who will pick on reputation rather than performance!!!
This will be your downfall.

Pretty much sizes up my fears re Noble.

Who was not available yesterday then i think only Prescott and Phelps were not fit sure all the others were

McIllorum - I suspect if he was fit he would have been picked ahead of Sam. After all, Mike Mc's form wasn't bad prior to the ban.

Well we will have to agree to disagree there he is to slow at the play of the ball he needs a spell on loan to speed up his game there is no point having 2 slow 9s on the field

Take your point but I'm referring to the fact that Mike Mc was pickled ahead of Sam for the Cas and Hull games when both players were available.

Didn't have a fitness problem, he was suspended.

I knew what I meant given I'd already referred to his ban previously

I blame the coedine

I think Fielden had a good game, he was excellant in defense and carried the ball up well. The fact that quins scored all their points when he was off the pitch is no coincidence. One point he had the ball swotting off quins props and looking for an offload & Riddell was just there looking at him.
