Quote: Wire Yed "Being objective as I don't see him every week, what are Shauls weaknesses?
He's a very quick dynamic player, always been impressed with him.'"

Surprised Bennett could stay awake long enough to hold a coffee morning.

Quote: Jake the Peg "Every coach of the England/GB team in recent years has picked players on reputation rather than form and each of them has failed. Time to pick players who are playing well IMO. The inclusion of players like ward, amor and walmsley are laughable'"


Fully agree with Jake.

Whats pi****g me off is that, I get all the "coffee morning" "meet and greet" "hello to last years squad" etc etc. we all get that I think. And I think its a good idea in principle. Its just the way its been executed thats the problem.
I wonder if it really means nothing to Houghton, Shaul, Watts Bowden etc and other form players in other teams, when they can see exactly whose been invited ?

You've got to admit in the light of actual on the field playing form, its a total travesty. Including many players who've been consistently labelled as rubbish this season by their own fans when at the same time many in-form players who have outperformed them have not been asked in "for a coffee." Well it's just plain wrong.
The bias towards 2 teams in particular is painfully obvious and smells bad to me.

So its up to our 4 mentioned above, and others, to raise the bar even higher i suppose. Which may not be a bad thing for all concerned, But it shouldn't have to be this way.
Poor man management by Bennett and Betts in my book, which could easily disillusion rather than motivate. I'm sure Radders will manage that one for our players should it be an issue.
Rant done.

What's to say our form players even like coffee?

Good point pal, never thought about that.
False alarm, icon_biggrin.gifANCE: Bennett will probably find his 'Gold Blend' after all.

Quote: Wire Yed "Roby for me is the most consistent player in SL, I don't think I've seen him make an error, and his engine is equal if not better than Houghtons, in a better squad it would show more, if he was in the FC squad right now I think he would convert those in the Houghton for England campaign.'"


Finally someone who understands the hooking role. Roby can only do so much with what he has to work behind. A 9 in attack is only as good as their pack. For example, look at Houghton this year. He has always been a good player but this year he looks a great one. He hasn't turned into a great player over night, it's just the players he is playing behind are winning the arm wrestle and are better players.

Another case in point is Clark. He was great in 2014 for Cas. He then went to a struggling Wire side in 2015 and struggled. He didn't turn into a bad player over night, it's just difficult for a 9 to play well behind a dominated forward pack. Often you hear 'Houghton out played Roby' or back in 2014 whenever we played Cas 'Roby outplayed Clark', both nonsense statements. Hull FC's pack have dominated Saints' pack this year meaning Houghton has had more to play on the back off, that's all it is. It was the same when Saints played Cas in 2014.

We have some fantastic 9's at the moment. Roby, Hodgson, Houghton and Clark all look top players. For me, however, Roby with Clark coming off the bench would be my personal choice despite Hodgson playing in the NRL.

Did Bennett even watch our team play? I believe he spent most of his time watching the middle and bottom teams in the league.
