| Quote ="Eastern Wildcat"All good players for us who are playing really well.
Feel sorry for Arundel, as I thought a while back he was our best centre, but I do believe right now Reece and Bill playing really well. Don't get me wrong, still like Joe and sure when fit again, will provide us with options
Chuffed to bits to see Reece playing well. He's had his critics on here and on the terraces in the past. He seems to have silenced those'"
Yup and I suspect you were one. Arundal is unlucky as imho he’s the most natural centre. Tupou has a wingers instinct and it shows occasionally. It swings and roundabouts in that he score more than most centres but doesn’t feed his winger consistently and Lyne is similar. Will be nice to see Arundal available to offer an alternative if needed.

| I wasn't actually.
I thought, even back in the Agar days, the lad had potential.
Just wasn't quite sure at the time what his best position was. I don't think Agar did either

If you say so but in my defence keeping up with your sysmic changes of opinion and mammoth panic attacks it isn’t easy.

| Agar made a good decision for us with Lyne.
Chester has done well to improve his skills as a centre.
Tupou was signed by Brian Smith. There has been lots of "he'll never make a centre" but he's just made the best centre his skills allow. He's not a Collis with the little pass he's a runner who busts first and passes second. Again credit to Chester for recognising what he is rather than try and make him into something else.

Tupou, runs like a centre but seems to hit very hard in the tackle.Our backs (from 1`-7) all seem to be going well and with Hampshire and Finn working well together, lets hope that we can have a strong finish to the season.
The pack always looked strong and they can compete with any pack in SL.

Tupou took some time to shake off that nightmare debut in the middle 8's at Salford. Failed to pass out to an overlapping Richard Owen (?) and bombed a certain try by getting collared. We lost by a tight margin. Nice to see him give a rare pass to Johnstone on Sunday that lead to TJ creating a try out of a half chance again.

| Who played opposite Inu on Sunday? Was it Lyne or Tupou? Whoever it was Inu had him in his back pocket all game. Inu is classy, but made his opposite number look dreadful in defense on a number of occasions.

Granted his match fitness was not up to scratch so to speak, I doubt many players would be with it been his first match back from injury in a long while so if you ask me that was quite smart to conserve his energy.
Is there a hint of jealousy there that he turned you down to join us? You know you were in for him!

| Inu is a fine player and I would have taken him at Wakefield maybe back in 2012... He's a has bin who showed a bit of form in the early part of the season prior to breaking his leg. He won't be the same player he once was, just stealing a wage!

How odd as both centres scored twice and one won MOM - did Inu score? Because he certainly didn’t bother to defend.

Funny, because I walked past Inu as he was talking to a couple of Widnes fans at the end of the game and that was the first time I'd actually noticed him all afternoon.

He won't have conserved much having to kick off with the number of tries' we scored

Couple of Widnes fans, did you have double vision?

| For his second try Tupou swatted off one of the fearsome Chapelhow brothers with ease - along with a couple of other tacklers.
Batches try was a joy to behold - two absolutely devastating drives by PP and Fifita, followed by another from Batch. Total domination by our pack.
