Futtocks Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I'd certainly like to see more of Farnworth's attacking skills on that side. 1 "We are easily breakable, by illness or falling, or a million other ways of leaving this earthly life.

Dunbar Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Good half from England. They look dangerous, particularly when Welsby shifts to the short side to create a 3 on 2 or 4 on 3. But the zero next to the opposition is probably the most important factor. 1 "The history of the world is the history of the triumph of the heartless over the mindless." — Sir Humphrey Appleby.

hunsletgreenandgold Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Clearly Fiji aren't great but I don't mind this. It's much harder to get confidence in attacking play/structure than it is in defence, so this is good to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, how do people feel about him v Oz and the Kiwis? Is he worth selection with his kicking game? 1 "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out.

I'd have preferred it if we'd been tested a bit more. Maybe we will in the second-half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
