Whats a one trip pony? Does he only go one way out of dummy half

Thanks for that Shaun!

Houghton was very good tonight. Sure his option taking is the weaker part of his game but the key point is that he is improving as the coach said the other week. Berro deserves special mention for a brilliant tackle on their left winger when they broke near the end (aided by full back Whiting).

Remember he is only 21 but for me he getting better all the time and think agar is realising that

I think that about sums up the attitude of most on here when faced with a reasoned, evidence critique that doesn't happen to fit with their blinkered view.

Another man of the match performance for me, totally out classing Berrigan at the moment (which isn't hard the way he's playing) but anyway, well done Houghton.

You know Berrigan spent most of his game time playing in the back row last night dont you? Ok just checking.

Agree with that, in the main he had another good game but he does need to pick the right time to skoot more consistantly. ATM its everytime he sees the square markers not quite set when he has other more beneficial options.

Hookers will always make the odd wrong call per game because they handle the ball far more then any other player on the pitch. In Danny's defence I would imagine he had been told to run more against a very big Catalans pack, they are the kind of team that Houghton can cause all sorts of problems for and if the ref had clamped down on their third man into the tackle slowing the play the ball down I suspect he would have had more joy scooting.

Not disagreeing with your original point but suspect every game we could highlight a couple of times Houghton doesnt make the correct play.

I know where Berrigan played, loose forward. Are you saying I'm wrong in my statement of Houghton totally outclassing Berrigan then ?

Especially when the 'evidence critique' contains a lot of critique but very little evidence!
