OK, top 3 players against the oppo's. 3pts for the best, 2 pts for 2nd and 1 for 3rd...simplez! Oh, and you can give reasons too if you wish.

3 (best) - McGuire - I will bang this drum 'til the end of time. Danny is a better 7 than a 6. Tonight he controlled the game and looked dangerous everytime he had the ball. I liked how he was taking the line on and then passing deep which created more space for the outside backs. He also put the defence in 2 minds by regularly jinking into the line himself. My MoM.

2 - Peacock - That 1st spell was pretty amazing and as always never stopped while he was on the field. He intensity in the "O" and "D" is quite awesome if you ask me.

1 - Diskin - This was a close call between him and Lauitiiti for me but he really controlled the game in the middle tonight and took the line on very well when needed. His passing was much better than recently aswell. Maybe Buderus ha been teaching him

Either way a step upo from his last 4 or 5 performances.

3 - Senior
2 - McGuire
1 - Peacock

3 - McGuire
2 - Sinfield
1 - Lauitiiti

Cheers for playing along guys, perticularly the descriptions

nobody going for thorman?? handed you all your first half tries on a plate

Not quite, Yeaman and Raynor give us the 1st

3rd Lauitit'iti - Always looking to offload, but only gave it when it was on. Looked threatening all night. Solid in defence, whilst trying something different.

2nd Senior - Great running, scored 2, very close to 2 more. A couple of assists too I think, and made plenty of meteres as well

1st McGuire. Took the line on with purpose. Good kicking game. Good organisation. Solid defence.

1 - McGuire. Simply awsome. Far better player without Burrow there, and agree with Hollywood.

2 - Sinfield. Superb link up with McGuire, giving the structure that allowed McGuire to roam and be creative. Also worked his balls off.

3 - Senior. Just pipping Smith. Thought the centres were aswome last night. Senior put in great effort. Not great protection of Hall for Hulls try, but great effort all round.

1 Senior - Always threatening. Even ran the right lines when not receiving the ball. Was unlucky to concede penalty for McGuires try.

2 Sinfield - Made some great defence splitting passes, show how to run at players commit 2 tacklers and pass the ball. Worked his socks off, deserved his try (why did I drop him from my fantasy team

)

3 Peacock - Again showed how to run the ball in, superb going forward and in defence.

1st - Sinfield
2nd - McGuire
3rd - Senior

special mention for lee smith, two tries and looks good as a right centre, hope we can get him to sign a new contract

My 3-2-1?

1. Ted Rogers
2. Dusty Bin
3. The Brian Rogers Connection.

3pts - Sinfield. Bossed the game from stand-off, good distribution and reading of when to go wide and when to be direct.

2pts - Senior. Still probably the best centre in the competition in terms of an all round game. Not many get past him in defence, and he picks some lovely lines in attack.

1pt - Lautiiti, Much more direct than he has been in previous weeks, settled for hitting the gap and finding the floor rather than throwing speculative offloads and turning over possession.

3-Sinfield.

His best game in a long time. Marshalled us around the field well and deserved his try.

2-Smith

As mentioned on the forums, looking the part in his new position. His footwork for the first try was particularly good.

1-Peacock

His usual performance, took us forward well and was big in defence.

mcguire

smith

sinfield

3 Sinfield for all the reasons quoted earlier plus something that hasn't been mentioned, his goal kicking. Again in difficult conditions and from generally wide out he kicked 7 from 8. I don't know what his success rate is but it must be pretty good & doesn't acknowledge the number of tries that we score wide out.
2. Senior, rolled back the years, only flaw is his failure to dominate the air from opposition attacking kicks to his wing, eg for the Whiting try. With his height I would like to see him jumping for the ball more rather than blocking the opposition runners. However, I can only think that he's told to do this by the coaching staff.
1 McGuire, some cracking passes to create tries, as well as his all round attacking threat.
