Why?

I agree about Paddy, I thought he was our best player. It was also good to see Ste Tyrer having a go a Paddy for him taking drive on the wrong side of the pitch which meant later in the set when we kicked through to Paddy's side but he was still getting back into position. IMO if Paddy does less driving up the middle and stays on his wing; a) he'll be in position to recieve the ball if we break and also b) he won't be knackered all the time. The runs that he made on Sunday were full of pace and purpose - he can't do that if he's spent all game driving into forwards.

I still think Thackeray needs a good partner next to him to give him more time and space. Coyle doesn't do a lot to take the heat off Thacks, so when he does get the ball, the defenders are on him in a flash. Then again that also could just be the difference between championship defence and SL. If we get into SL and we take Thacks, he simply won't get the space that he currently gets. Thacks being quiet in the friendlies is probably a combination of lack of a good scrum half next to him and also playing against the likes of Wire and Saints.

Because you were playing probably your closest SL neighbours and you were putting out a strong team. How much was to get in on the day?

Thacks did score a good try,and with a top class scrumhalf at his side he will be fine.

what about that moore from batley hes decent?

But as you say he is contracted with Batley and they won't let him go as he is one their key players. Not many scrum halfs or standoffs left at this time of the year as 'Fev are finding out with the loss of Briggs.

true true, but with the use of mr oconnors wallet who knows

Should get rid of gardner he is turd
