Thought that Parata looked particularly sharp. Can see him ripping tiring defences to pieces.

always been like that and played well  on saturday but looks to be down the pecking order behind number nine brown and fourteen jones  for regular starting berth

Not necessarily, in last week's media conference via Zoom Nu told me that while he was happy to play anywhere  he sees himself primarily as a five eighth (stand-off), and prefers to play down the left, which made Saturday's positioning format very interesting:- Chizzy has always played down the left for us and Tom Holmes played down the right last time he was here, but on Saturday it was the other way round, with Nu also playing in the halves when he came on, so it looks as if nothing's set in stone just yet.

Some really interesting and positive comments earlier. and it looks like Webster has a lot of hard thinking to do for the season starts, but lets not get too carried away with this thrashing of Oldham

don't think anybody is getting carried away by saturday merely saying what they saw as posatives about the players performances
