| The form he has shown lately, he definitely deserves a new contract. When he comes on, the go forwards increases exponentially. He's always there in defence too. Did you see him play the ball from acting half brilliant
The Widnes Full Back must of cr@pped himself when Frank got up to full trundle and headed straight for him.

Think Frank is playing out of his skin. What a season he is having and i think the club will find it difficult to refuse him another season. Gone has the laying on in the tackle and teams are finding it harder to pin him for off side where as only 12 months ago he was becoming a liability. Well done to Frankie and what a great tackle by the full back last night!

| I agree with the above but what was he thinking? Perhaps if I just dive over the line they might forget I was tackled!

It was certainly bizzare, i was behind the sticks and i think he thought it was just a formality to get over the line when he ran at the full back but the skinny kid had other ideas.

I think thats a bit unfair Nat, I havent watched it back on the tv yet, but it was obvious that Frank thought he wasnt tackled or he wouldnt have done it, unless he had a serious brain fart

| He is having a cracking season Franky, back to how he was a couple years back. And I would love to see him here next year.
By the way, anyone know what happened to Wrenchy? Thought it was just a dead leg at first, but after a while it seemed much more serious. Anyone have any informantion?

| Frank was outstanding last night. He made yard after yard and did damage every time he was on the ball.
As for his "Try" I think it was simply a rush of blood. He saw the line and couldn't resist it. Looked a lot worse on TV than it did from where I was stood, in fact looked terrible on the camera
All in, I think another year would not go amiss, if he keeps his form up he's a hell of an impact prop.

when frank hit the floor the fullback just about had hold of his boot so that is maybe why frank thought not tackled.

I didn't think he was tackled at the time but didn't know if the ref said he was tackled. I take it from the tv replay he clearly was tackled?

I agree. I'd say that he was definitely tackled but in the heat of battle he obviously did not realise it.
The other bizarre incident was when Shad stood staring at the ball when it was clearly not going to go dead and then got caught in goal. Any doubts - pick the bloody ball up and get it back in play!

Shads mistake typifies Fax lack of killer instict when teams are on the ropes, would he have done the same thing when 12-0 down? I dont think so.
However he still had a top game, his timed run off Black for his try was utter class.

| He's made me eat my words the last couple of months as he has been outstanding, hope he carries on his form through the play-offs.

| It looked on TV as if he thought he was not tackled but fair play to the fullback he did still have hold of his boot as the forearm hit the floor. Didn't here a call from the ref though.

The guy is AMAZING he just keeps going and what a role model.
He is well worth a contract as he is one of the best ambassadors the club has ever had, always has time for fans and great with kids.
Respect
