Was waiting for someone to mention this
We need to get a running nine in this team like Parcell showed last night
It was also Houghtons crap pass to the floor that led to Wigans try

Think we have one, unfortunately he also seems to be our most dangerous halfback.

Still annoyed that Radford didn't play Litten enough and allowed him to leave.

You think Shaul can tackle??

Seen many a player run past/through him over the years.

In fact very few full backs can tackle these days. It’s a dying art.

Shaul can’t tackle and neither can Jake

one of the main reasons Jake struggles v the Top teams is that he’s too busy defending all the time

He’s shattered coming out of his own half

that’s why your best ball players play at 6 so they are fresh when attacking

you don’t ask your best bowler to take wicket when he’s not bowling and also open batting

In a tough match Jake would be shattered defending , and this is what’s happening.

Get Wynne at FB and move Jake

Wynne isn't even our best reserve fullback.

Even when hes spelled he never does much attacking

A 10/15 yard scoot when the opposition are on the back foot isn't good

When players like Roby Clark dwyer would break the line and be a try on the back of that

Houghton has held our attack back so much over the years the opposition know he's not a threat so can move away from acting half quicker

Moment of magic

Watch it again doesn't even step Connor just runs straight through him was a very poor effort

Nonsense

Connor won't make hardly any tackles

And running the ball back.... Majority of the time he passes it straight to the winger

Stop with these excuses doesn't do club any good

He needs to up his game against the best end of....now people are starting to see it he isn't invincible

He's got bad habits from Huddersfield they bottled it in the big matches as well and that's what Connor is doing

Odd tackle

What Liam farrell
Eden
Cas winger ( can't remember his name he barely played since ) from memory all the in the last 8/9 months

And all 4 was trys that was terrible

Farrell esp was just embarrassing that is probably the main reason why he's not in the England squad

If your full back can't catch Liam farrell then what's the chances of catching latrell Mitchell or addo Carr

Oh and shaul would of stopped all of them trys 100%

And as field/bevan prove pace is what's needed

Whats Connors biggest weakness


Oh yeah.... pace! He has none

Oh so suddenly it wasnt "magic"? It was actually a Connor screw up?

Covid theories have no place here, thank you

Absolutely correct in my opinion. I watched the NRL all weekend any Haas, made 8 drives for Brisbane in the first half alone. Similar thing with Parramatta, so why we persist with players who get pushed back by a hungry opposition is baffling. The backs are fine when the opposition line is disjointed , but when they're set to defend and pin us down, the big men are needed, as they do not concede as much ground when the opposition forwards pile in mob handed. There are some glaring inconsistencies with our game plans, on Thursday I do think we had no idea of how to finish our sets near their line and for all I have criticised him previously, Sneyd would have managed that so much better for us to see the game out I think. We no longer possess the aerial threat of Mahe and Talanoa, so put the ball on the floor, which often produces a drop out or even an error from a scrambling defence.

Had Sneyd played, I don't think we would have been in a winning position our attack is so much better this year, alot less wayward passes and inside balls.

Not sure why on the last, Gale doesn't kick and Connor move out to centre, such a dangerous weapon.
