  1. In the 32° at Leigh, some of your lads looked to be flagging, but that could have a lot to do with Leigh not allowing them to get on top, lesson for Catalan get into their faces early in each set, it may just rattle them, especially coming of two loses and the longer it goes without KR getting a roll on the more they could get unsettled.
  2. I believe that Mr Lam sees Hughes versatility to switch between forwards and backs as quite important, it has been Hughes who he has had fill in in back positions when we had injuries outside of the forwards earlier in the season, but saying that from his previous comments Macnamara is a favourite of his.
  3. As I said at half time with regard to Robertson being in the England squad:- "Dread to think how Robertson would go on against the Aussie centres in defence if picked" And it didn't get any easier for him in the second half.
  4. Yep with you on all that, but as I intimated in my initial post, I would have that grunt up front with Davis filling the last bench spot v Wire and Leeds so I would leave Macnamara out, there are much less taxing games coming up where the squad can be rotated more.
  5. Precisely re the interchanges with the props and leaving Trout up front, but in my opinion I don't know why Mr Lam uses Tuitivake so sparingly he always adds some grunt up front and is a handful for the opposition, so I take it you are favouring Macnamara on the bench, or are you just trying to preempt what you expect the selection will be along with Hughes?
  6. I think everything is there with Armstrong, he just needs it developing and polishing, that is the domain of Mr Lam, there is another player to my mind who Mr Lam introduced to SL being Jai Field and after watching him early doors, my reaction was 'really' and albeit Mr Lam left Wigan, I can see a lot of the same similarities with the two of them having the natural ability and talent to go to the top in SL, Field is already there, I think Armstrong can acheive the same, my opinion of course.
  7. Then we have who does he replace? I am hoping that the club give their head a wobble and extend Josh Charnley's contract, he maybe 34 but plays as he is going on 28, there have been a number of iconic players who have maintained their form well after their mid 30's like Jamie Peacock, Steve Menzies, and still playing Chris Hill, Charnley is one of those in my mind and belies his age, (After my post above re Johnny Lomax, I don't think he falls into that category of being able to hold the his form as he is ageing). On the other wing we have Keenan Brand a lad who has waited a few years to cement a place in the team and he has done that very admirably, it will be very interesting when Armstrong does return after all he is a marquee player.
  8. Depends on who's choice it is play Lomax, Briers or Wellens obviously the latter has the last word but coaching teams don't nessacarily work like that. Lomax looks to me like the plethora of players who have had great career's but want to extend it too long rather than leaving the public with memories of how good they have been.
  9. Looking even better when Robbie and Ethan return which could very well be v. Warrington, I wouldn't change the front row but would put Ethan in the 2nd row in place of Jack Hughes, as for Robbie what a luxury to have him fit, available and raring to go coming of a bench of, Mulhearn, Tuitivake, Hughes and Davis, Macnamara has done well when coming on but I couldn't leave Davis off with the energy and enthusiasm he adds to the midfield, what do you think?
  10. Not going to disagree DD, but I would say Armstrong is appreciably much the quicker over the ground, strong possibility that Sailor reverts to the wing when young Jack returns, but we will have to see what Mr Lam does with Armstrong if Bailey Hodgson maintains the form he is displaying.
  11. Noticed at the end of the game and Joe walking past where Jenna was doing post match interviews he was very noticeably limping, heard anything?
  12. Wigan play next week I think. Edit yes they do Catalan at the brick on Friday.
  13. There is a massive difference between the NRL and SL, but Joffa couldn't be all that bad playing circa 200 NRL games, Leigh have benefitted from an all mighty fallout between him and the Para coach.
  14. 3rd game on the trot we have done that to the opposition Dave, as the old RL saying goes "you are only as good as the opposition allow you to be".
  15. I watched a lot of him in the NRL and thought he would be a good signing for Saints but alas doesn’t appear to be so, also said it before Sailor had all but signed for Leigh last season till Reece Walsh got injured and Brisbane stopped the signing as they wanted Sailor for cover, my opinion Leigh dodged a bullet.
