And also gets easy metres retuning the ball from restarts...

A dig at Walmsley, me? Never. All a light hearted joke.

Faz really is an incredible player. I always just wonder if he doesn’t get the plaudits he deserves because he’s just so understated. If an NRL second rower came in and out the numbers on the board Faz does they’d be billed as an absolute legend.

I just hope we can keep him here for another few years yet.

Over on the Hull board they're saying Satae took the ball up 5 times last night, now that's something to moan about

He's the most consistent player in Superleague by a country mile.

Me too. Unfortunately I seem to remember that the NRL has been sniffing around him for some time. Enjoy it while he's here I guess.

All the forwards stepped up last night, the only downside was Partington's penalties, I think that's why they subbed him at the end as he looked the most likely to give a penalty away in a kickable position to end the game, other than that I was happy with all the forwards.
Is it just me though or does Mago look to be running mre lateral at the line instead of direct like he did in the first few games, it must really take the sting out of his size advantage if he is running at an angle rather than direct, would much rather see him running direct off the ruck, than on the angle from a tip on

Top man Farrell on and off the pitch.
Got talking to him in Toulouse and when I told him he was my grandson’s favourite player he did a video for him to wish him all the best after a serious rugby injury.
Down to earth, consistently top drawer and his fitness levels are almost ridiculous

Saying that it was only his second game back a tremendous effort from Havard
The try he scored was also a little belter.
Agreed the best young prop in the game

As you say, quite incredible given it was his 2nd game and against a big pack like Hull. 100+ metres and a try. More even than that is how impressive his engine is. You would have thought it would take a few games to get up to full match fitness but he's already playing long minutes with no drop off in intensity. He must be one hell of a trainer to get to those levels so quickly.

Fingers crossed that he can keep clear of anymore serious injuries.

I loved how he celebrated his try.
You can tell how much it meant to him.

Hopefully we can build a pack around him for the foreseeable future

Havard is an NRL-style machine who must be very difficult to control without him being an obvious tackle-buster. He seems to sap energy out of the oppositon.

Harvard is one I’m desperate to keep long term. He has the potential to be one of the top props in the world. We really need him to find a nice young local lady who doesn’t want to leave the area and settle down.

I’m surprised at Mago’s stats. I felt as though I wanted much more from him but he must have done more than I noticed.

Find him a few if it’ll keep him here

Things may have changed in the last couple of years but from what I heard if it wasn't for the pandemic he would already be in Melbourne.

Does anyone know what the plan is for Silva. Don’t think I’ve seen him play yet. Thought he’d of been a main stay in the reserves this season

Silva playing reserves tonight.

Be good to see him play. I think in the preseason game he was half decent

As an aside, Miski not played tonight, either he's dropped right down the pecking order or he's playing next week

Marshy is potentially out so likelihood is he is playing

I thought Liam would have much better figures than he has been given.

His first don't was really impressive I thought.

I want sure when he came back in the 2nd half, seemed really late in the game and only had 1-2 hit ups.

Surprised me also. He stood out in the first stint and was great.

The time he returned in the second stint could have been when Hull had a lot of the ball but that would only explain low carries / meters but not low tackles?

Havard is exceptional, those numbers are immense.

I think Byrne only came back on very late due to the lack of subs we had left. Peet was likely holding a change back in case of a further injury.

Good effort from most of them. Farrell is a machine. IMO he's been quiet since Williams left (relative to previously) but at times this year he's looked back to his best.

Havard just worries me as he is always late into the defensive line. Looks like he's running through sand at times with the agility of a West Stand OAP. But then he goes and steps and scores a try under the posts. Quite odd.
