It's been a feature for weeks. 3 tries scored on his outside v wire. The Hall try from a dead play and not having a hand on him will not be beaten this year for worst try conceded. Then there's errors. Tackle 1 drop other day. Conceded try 2 tackles later
Fonua been bad for errors. But he's got a break try offload outta no where in him. Massive metres and general x factor. Michaels lack of x factor doesn't justify being 110%er . Hard working honest players were all we could ask for as a middling team. We want to challenge now.
GriffIn is the new nearest to a scapegoat we have now. He's missed a couple of tries granted. But basically anything left side conceded is his fault. Mini has lots of errors pens and line jumps in him..Sneyd is not a strong defender and centre wing combo hasn't had chance to blend. All factors. Last year people on here would try have you believe right side was terrible and again the centres got the blame. Yet this year solid with same men almost
Griffin is faster than micheals. .got an offload in him and prior to leeds game was our best metre a carry by about a metre over Fonua. So I'd use these attributes on the wing.

Turned up last night fully expecting a defeat and although Warrington have not been playing well we were on a short turnround after playing wonder team Cas with 12 men and I thought we would fade in 2nd half with what seemed to be the weakest bench we have put out for a long time. How wrong I was. That was a brilliant performance by every player. The youngsters fitted in really well. Have watched them in the HULL academy and Under 23's and have been impressed but they often dont progress. This batch seem to be different particularly Fash & Turgut who were all over the pitch. Cannot usually cope with Child (& Hick) but he did not do bad and although the usual cock-ups was same to both sides. Only complaint Brown should have at least got 10 mins for lifting especially when Manu was binned which was warranted. Be interesting to see what our wonderful disciplinary mob make of it if anything.

Make that the last 3 games - 216m against Leigh. Agree that he's better on the wing but mostly from a defensive point of view where both he and the team look better for it.

Noticed in the Hudds/leeds game, Huddersfield players ever so slightly delayed 'heeling' the ball after placing it on the ground and were deliberate in putting their foot on the ball, this caught leeds out twice as players were encroaching and the split second delay on putting foot on ball made it far more obvious for the ref to see (players offside).
TBH I thought Child deliberately ignored a really obvious forward opass in that first half by them, he was in line and it was as plain as the nose on your face, not even close to being a 'flat' pass.
Whilst we all want a flowing game I don't want that to be at the cost of ignoring infractions by players, stick to the rules and make the players modify their behaviour (& that of the coaches too), if players know they will get pinged more frequently they are less likely to try to get away with infringing.
However the ridiculous over-reaction to the non sending off of Westwood (after his swinging high tackle) has meant incidents were contact was made but not fault of tackler have being dealt with in a totally different manner and IMHO outside the realms of fairness.
officiating has gone backwards under Ganson
