| Michaels works hard but again offers nothing that would make me think to offer a new deal rather see Lancaster get a run

| Micheals is the least of our problems. The kid is solid.
By the time the ball gets to him he generally has 3 players waiting to smash him due to poor attack.
Looking forward to Lancaster getting a run though this kid just seems like a natural try scorer.
Game know how: isn't that why we brought Leon Pryce in?
Watts
and Westy: Watts playing very well but Westerman can move on for me.

| Micheals is quick but the trouble is he receives the ball on the touch line in his own half with defenders on him instantly, if he was outside a good centre & we was expansive he would have a field day, weary broke the line several times but forgot to take the ball with him, I don't blame the weather as Leeds didn't have a problem, westy on his day is a good player but we are seeing very little of that form that got him international recognition, but he needs to step up in the big games, I've posted before the season started that Abdul is more skilful then him & he is on less money so if he goes we won't miss him as much as people think.

| I think Michaels is finishing the season stronger than he started it, but I'm still ambivalent as to whether he stays.

Agree with that. Westy is rocks and diamonds - brilliant break to set up Rankin's try in France but in that game as well as the Leeds one he throws silly passes and gives the ball away as regular as clockwork. He probably needs Daryl Powell to coach him like the rest of the pro RL world.

Pretty like for like, both can defend, are strong runners, but don't have the skills, guile or pace to make breaks or create something out of nothing.

| Controversial round here I know, but I'd play Yeaman in the centres before Michaels.

Same here and Michaels before Yeaman on the wing.
On this seasons form Yeaman and Talanoa should be centres, which is very depressing.

In honesty, haven't our centres and wingers pretty much been starved of genuine opportunity, they end up driving the ball up more often than they should. We had the same issue with Horne, too much defensive and grunt work and not enough opportunity to show attacking ability...?
