Got over the jetlag yet?
Seems Sammut for Crusadors has and he only arrived on friday.
Totally anonimous.

got to say from what I've seen so far he looks nothing better than what you had already.

He's at the moment a big waste of space. Graham plays for 80, Clinton has said the game is slower at the play the ball yet he plays 40 minutes tops.

Didn't think he was too bad tbh, there was worse players.
Granted he doesn't play many minutes, but apart from Graham who plays more than 50?

Disappointing for him also to be usurped by Ade Gardner as the fittest player of the weekend.

Think this is a bit of a harsh post, thought he lead the pack with vella today

Led as in going forward or lead as in weighed it down?

i thought he did ok in a generally pap performance from most

Good post.

Clinton is showing good quality but I'd like to see him on the pitch for longer. You just start thinking he's doing well and he's back on the bench again.

That's modern coaching for you.

modern coaching?? is that what you call clear lack of attacking anything? how many times we been nilled in a half this season? bet its more than salford and crusaders. just not good enough

I thought clinton went well early on. It was a difficult game for any forward to look good on the rovers side.

Probably the only forward In your side I'd like at Hull

best rovers forward yesterday,at least he runs it in,lovegrove wants to learn to tackle

When he was on I thought he did ok too, made yards and looked to offload. We need more game time from him. As for Rhys, he had a mare really, dropping passes, albeit sometimes tough ones. I see he has shaved his Billy Idol locks off after the Bratfud game. Good idea as he had a bad one there too and with that hair people notice more!

All the rubbish on other posts about sacking Justin...absolute tosh. Keep with him who is there better we can afford TBH? After a reasonable clearout this winter, hopefully a better season next. Many people have said this is a holding season so lets be more patient and sensible and less over-reactive, fickle and volatile, leave that for the FC Forums!

The licencing system is there for seasons like this, i.e. no relelgation and chances to blood youngsters and at a risk of some more paggerings I fear if we did, as I don't really think the quick fixes lie there, but if we tried them we must expect some more like yesterday I fear. Unlike Saints who just seem to roll them consistently off the production line going by yestedays line-up. Awesome!

Developing your own talent is the way forward for any team that wants to succeed long term.
Saints yesterday had only 2 overseas players in their 17, Flannery and Big Tony.
Teams like Saints and Wigan should not be allowed to send players out on dual contracts to other clubs, how do you think local players think when someone comes in and takes their place in the team, It seems Castleford will accept anyone from anywhere for any length of time.
The standard of rugby has leveled out, but the standard IMHO has gone down not up, compared to the NRL, (not forgetting, they in fact allow their ageing/over the hill players ply their trade here) we are miles behind them in terms of being competative.

O/T but to be fair to Crusaders,Nobby seems to be getting a decent team together.
