My impression yesterday was that the players seem to be buying into BH’s ethos. The heads never went down and we kept playing. Some of that defensively must be in some way related to being coached by Gaz Ellis.
No doubt he’s still learning the ropes , but he must be one of those that when he speaks, players listen.

Whatever happened to craig hkr and Rubyred1?Absolutely top quality posters but MIA.

The one thing baffling me is having Cameron Scott on the bench, we played with three subs yesterday.
Great to see how the defence has improved.
Not BH fault but the squad is unbalanced and hopefully he will sort it next season

Should have put Johnstone onthe bench.

Total waste to not use a sub , particularly in a tight defensive game that was 90 minutes

.

Maybe they will return, when the winds of changes shift.

Unless the plan was to move Griffin to second row at some point but then Lane was having a stormer so the move never materialised.

First time we've not lost in the opening three rounds since 2009 (least said about the rest of that season the better) and only the third time since our debut in Super League in 1998.

Carlos, Houghton and Lane in the Super League team of the week.

Carlos just behind Hardaker in competition metres so far. Good to see.

Official Super League website now corrected to show us on 83% rather than 66%.

Think Carlos has to be up there in terms of being one of the best signings the club has made. He may not have been a big name or a world class signing but in terms of value and what you get in terms of ability and consistent performances from him he is certainly up there with the best of them.

I remember most if not all of us wondered about him as a signing as his was certainly over shadowed by the signings of Pritchard and Fonua, though time has shown and he has proved to be a class signing and real genuine guy.

Our best centre since James Leuluai for sure.

Carlos is on fire this season. As Mrs B says he is second in SL for metres made. He's also second for runs from dummy half and third for carries.

Hardaker has the massive benefit of a easy 15+ metres when he returns a kick too.

There isn't another centre in the league I would replace Carlos with. The only time I can remember his opposite centre getting the better of his was that dreadful game where we got hammered by Wakefield and even there he could hardly move and was bandaged up looking like a mummy.

The hype players like Hurrell, King, Gildart & Percival get compared to him is just bizarre.
