| Kelly & Sneyd my 1st choice, Kelly has the x factor out of the three of them and I think that Sneyd has the better kicking game than Jake.

I really would like to see our '6' played on the left edge, this would give
service to the backrower, left centre ,winger on that side, coupled with a creative fullback
to provide a link on the right..
IF Shaul could improve his skill level, he'd be the best British fullback in the game,
his support play is outstanding..
Also, this would give our attack, more balance, with a threat, on all sides of the pitch,
as currently we predominantly go to the right, as we have no left pivot.

You mean the predictable kick to the wing every time? Houghton has a better (less predictable) kicking game than Sneyd. If Sneyd didn't kick goals he wouldn't be in, I hate to agree with Gary Schofield but, imho, he's right about Sneyd.

I actually agreed with Schoefield too. Obviously not a popular choice on here.
Ironically his only good alround game came after that.
If we saw that Sneyd week in week out he'd be a cracking player.
As it is with him, it's peaks and troughs and the predictable 5th tackle kick.

Well we'll never know that for sure will we?
And again another game where he was non existent for 70 mins.
I'm grateful for the fact we won but come on he can't dine out on that forever.

You are having a laugh if you think Houghton has a better kicking game, Sneyd can put it on a sixpence the only kicking Jake does is last tackle boots upfield I can't recall a try coming off a kick from him or a 40/20 ( I ain't seen away games apart from TV so if I'm wrong I'll stand corrected )

You either,
You do not attend
You go for a wee frequently and miss a lot of the game
Or simply do not like Sneyd
?
From Fridat alone, I am thinking you missed the rubber which Houghton should have been given a try for (pulled back for a penalty for us)
The countless long kicks which split the defenders
The frequent 40/20s

Oh I attend, and I don't dislike Sneyd, just of the opinion that Connor/Kelly is a better partnership. Hope Sneyd proves me wrong at Doncaster. (be intrigued how many 40/20's class as frequent)

| Could it be that Sneyd has looked bang average all season and a lot of last season not all down to him no engaging the defence. But that we lack even one option (don't like the term dummy runner), they just wait for the pass to be given by him, that it's not all down to Sneyd. Look at Fridays game, we were complete garbage in attack. We didn't seem to have any set plays barring one from a scrum that looked good but was slow and didn't gain us any decent metres.
The one thing that did annoy me with Sneyd was after the first two or three failed kicks to our right side, why did he think it was a good idea to keep trying this for another two attempts?

Connor kick to the corner try away at Salford is 1 comparing how many times he's played in the halfs.
Houghton is not a better kicker I agree.

Agree, add that our forwards rarely hit the line at full pelt, not all Sneyd's fault. The last 4 games we've lacked direction and leadership in attack.

| I think people are getting a liitle over excited by the kelly/connor partnership in my opinion, certainly wasn't as stand out as some are making out, the cc is the only one that stands out for me, if the team is playing well and snyed is still playing poor, thats when id give the connor/kelly combo an extended run. But no way as our poor attack been solely down to snyed these last few games
