He is following on from Swain and Fitzgibbon in being our 'engine room' you feel that when he plays well (not that he has many off days) the team will play well.

I thought all the forwards were superb and really laid a platform for the backs.

yes it got sloppy in the last 10mins, but as others have already mentioned the long break for Briscoe's injury took the momentum out of us, and the players are human...when you are so far ahead you aren't going to risk getting injured or getting sent off.

I thought Lynch showed more then just an engine yesterday. His passes were essential to a fair few of our tries.

I thought in the 2nd half Lynchy had decided he'd be a winger when he made the break down the touchline lol

Great display by the team yesterday. It's a shame we didn't kick on in the last twenty minutes and hit 70 plus it was disappointing not to keep a clean sheet.

Still, it'll give Gentle something to work on this week.

It was alot better than i was expecting and played some really good stuff for 60,65 mins....just a shame they wasnt more ruthless as i thought they could have put 70 on em and two trys flattered them for me! Lynch has been superb so far this year and mckinnon looks like he could score everytime he gets his hands on the ball....how olds bowden? Bloody huge!!!

I've just had a look at SL Fulltime, Voodooroo, don't think you'll like how I saw them.

He needs to get it right quick or he'll be another Hall.

There was a right no it all behind me yesterday slating Houghton and how he'd done nothing all game! strange how some people see things, or how they just love to moan about FC

Heard that myself near me,very strange how some people view the game.

Just watch the Highlights - some great trys!

McKinnon looks to be a huge part of how we play now - its great having that extra pivot!

And Lynch has to be one of the best props in the league - surely?

Turner had a decent game, always impressive with ball in hand. He did shoot of the line for one of the tries although Briscoe was also caught out. Being picky he also blew a try with the first play of the game when he cut inside instead of drawing the fullback and passing to Briscoe.

The best thing for me was how aggressive our defence is, especially big Sam. We are trying to win every collision and showing a bit of a nasty streak.
There was one tackle were the widnes player got hit by both Moa and Manu! Not the sort of sandwhich i'd enjoy

I agree he had a decent game, but as I said in my initial post I think it’s always difficult to adequately appraise players in games like that. We were so easily on the front foot that for most of the game you only see half of a player’s game. With Turner that meant you didn’t see much of his one area of concern, and in the only spell where you did he was caught out twice (not alone on the 2nd occasion though, both he and Briscoe were at fault IMO).

So I’m not saying he played poorly, simply that he still didn’t do anything to convince me he can be a first choice centre for us if we want to be top 4.

Lynch will turn out to be a better signing than Fitzgibbon.I know 2 completely different positions but Lynch just seems to be more better with ball in hand.

I`m with you.

Peter Gentle will be FURIOUS! He should have got the message out in the second stanza.When the tank is empty you should go for the one pointer to eat up the clock.It should be up the jumper time,and keep your eye out for the opposition coming up on the blind side.Any youngsters watching out there you do not put the cue on the rack until 80 minutes.Without a doubt you will get through.Its as simple as that.
