He's a little overrated because of his surname. Watched him for years when he was at Shevvy, great in patches but would go missing for large parts of the games.

Hope I'm wrong but just like Tierney wasn't a patch on his dad Jason Robinson I can't see Hanley being a patch on Ellery (then again who is).

Will someone please snot LMS

I reckon Ellery now is better than his lad

Very difficult to gauge where they are in terms of development in a game like this. Hanley has had a lot of pressure kicks. Every one of them aimed at him. Few mistakes but you can see he has got the footwork already. I think he would be a different player playing behind the senior side but I think he needs a bit more confidence first under the high ball. Kilner and Rushton I wouldn't mind If I saw them in a regular 17. They look ready. Pity Rushton is off but Kilner is going to be one hell of a prop. Burrough has been busy without being spectacular and we all know Smith is going to be a superstar. The rest aren't ready yet. Not seen enough of Pearce-Paul to give an honest assessment.

Get a try or two late on and this hasn't been as bad as I expected.

Still hurts like hell getting snotted by these men though.

I understand why we've done it but I'm not happy with it. Massive pressure is on us Saturday now.

He hasn’t for a long time. I don’t know why he’s still here to be honest. Everyone has put a shift in tonight. Hanley hasn’t had the greatest game but equally he hasn’t really had chance to show what he can do. He will be a good player for us, he just needs time which fortunately for him, he has.

Clark has been ineffective completely IMO. Kilner, Bryne and Bullock comfortably outplayed him

Seriously wondering what Mitch Clarke brings to us. The last good game I remember him having was for Cas against us. I'm not querying the signing so much. He was a big lad who promised a lot. But in a game like this, as a regular first-teamer, I'd have thought he'd be leading by example. Instead, he looks weak and uninspired.

Clark has done nothing since he signed

Which is what I've said all along.

I thought we’d get dicked in this half considering half of these lads haven’t played since Feb/March and we’ve been down a sub most of the game.

Kilner should be in the squad on Saturday the lads a unit

Leeds are doing the same tomorrow you know

3 good carries then zero tenacity whatsoever...young lads running their blood to water, he’s disinterested after being hit hard a couple of times.

All four teams have, to be expected
