Houghtons looking the real deal. If he keeps this form up he may make the England side at the end of the year.

Outstanding again last nite, fully deserved sky m.o.m.

Question is, can he do the full 80 every week with Berro coming off the bench and playing elsewhere, say 13?

We look a far better side with Danny on the park

Danny looks stronger and fitter every week. He reminds me a lot of Swain, i dont know why. I'd be delighted to see him play 80 every week and use Berro in the centres.

I said at the start of the year that Houghton and Lunt could be Englands hookers in future years, i doubted myself looking at his early season form but he's coming good when it matters.

Imo i think Berro's days as a hooker are over but like say, maybe comin off the bench and doing a job elsewhere for the team is an option, think he could do a job as a running loose man with ball in hand, similar to the role Sinfield does for Leeds?

Regarding Danny, i agree, hes got GB written all over him and is making a late play for the clubs player of the year for me with O'Meley looking over his shoulder

80 mins every week will do him no favours, last time he got motm he was poor the week after. Berro will be needed to play a bigger role against Wigan next week especially against the experience of Piggy.

Don't forget Roby.

If swainesque were a word it would be fitting for his performance last night

Didnt do Swainy any harm.

Never played rugby in my life or any other sport so how come i have arthritis

Progressing towards an England call-up according to Fitz in the HDM who by his standards is quite gushing in his praise.

If he keeps up this standard he will not be far off imo.

Have they got a replacement for KC lined up for next season?
