I gave him some stick after the Catalans game I'll admit, couldn't make it today, how'd he go?

Finch was great, did what Deacon did last week. Still not quite the attacking threat he could be though, much more to come.

His kicking, passing, tackling and organisation was first class. Second only to FULL BACK Sam Tomkins for me.

Carmont and Hoffman were both world class today!

Cheers
Fantastic, can only be good for the team that Finch seems to be settling in. If he can fit in aswell as Deacon did last year then we'll be really well off imo, I've no doubt Deacon was a key part of our team last year.

Probably the same dear old lady who sits behind me in th south stand. What a numpty!

Agreed.

Both were tremendous again.

Should hear these new fans behind me in the East Stand. They spend the whole game moaning about players (usually the wrong player eg a moan about Mossop when he wasnt even on the pitch!)

They go on and on about how rubbish finch is how little he does blah blah blah and then he did something brilliant, not a try, but a brilliant run and pass that set one up and they start going on (and not a hint of sarcasm from them whatsoever) about how good Finch is and how theyre happy we signed him.

I wish I had back the guy who used to sit there that used to shout "hallelujah hallelujah" the first time we got a penalty even if the ref had actually been fair haha

Was superb today. Started the move all himself for the Joel try when he spotted the gap on the blindside to send Mossop 30-40 yards rather than come inside and make 5. Two quick play the balls later and Joel scores.

What a boost it would be if we could keep both of those on. The more I watch us this year the more I think those 2 along with Richards are really the players we must get to stay. I said a few weeks ago I thought Deacon and Coley were players we could do with staying on but with Finch now finding his feet and Prescott and Mossop continuing to improve at a fast pace I'm not too sure.

I'd love to see all 5 stay but if we could only choose 3 it would be Pat, Carmont and Hoffman at the moment.

Finch is steadily improving again.

I still believe he isnt at full fitness, but he directed us round the pitch well and seemed to be enjoying himself today which is what we need. He and Lima were having banter with the fans aswel - if we can get him settled of the pitch and make him feel at ease - the rest will follow.

what did he say ????

After not playing since Sept & having his pre season cut short with a bad injury I'm more than happy with how Finch has progressed.

He's got better week after week and I'm sure he'll get even better.

I'll go on record by saying I'm happy with how all the new lads have been.
