Not really

I'd rest him next week whatever

Same tbf. Maybe till semi

Dear me.

Anybody who is happy at a rugby player receiving an injury is just about the lowest of the low.

Hope you're proud of yourself.

Oh, by the way, Kelly is in a different league to your team, but then I suppose the bitterness that that situation has obviously manifested inside of you would lead you to produce shi te like that.

You know, combined with your jealousy and inferiority complex and all that.

Not Albert's biggest fan but wouldn't wish an injury on any player, severe dip in form maybe, but not an injury



I've only seen him in the tv games but he has looked like he's been carrying something the last few times I've seen him play. He's looked out and limping then he seems to have a spurt as if nothings wrong and then look as if he has leg problem again. He's had a long history of leg issues so makes you wonder if he's playing jabbed up.

He's been carrying Sneyd since Radford dropped Connor, to be replaced by Sneyd/Griffin I wouldn't blame Connor if he wanted out.

Can't remember Connor being dropped?

dropped to the bench

We have 3 good halfbacks atm, connor time will come, if he looks miffed when hes on the pitch as some say well imo that's not the right attitude to have, as for griffin hes playing ok atm and derserves his place,

Have to agree to disagree, Sneyd is behind Connor when it comes to his pairing with Kelly and Sneyd's general demeanour on the pitch, Griffin would not be playing if the full squad was fit, he cost us a few times against Cas and hasn't shown much else.

fair point we do see different things on the pitch, looks like connor will be playing fri,

Ah, I didn't realise that he had been "dropped" to the bench.
There's me thinking it's a 17 man squad, with player rotations.
I guess resting players can be classed as dropped as well when it suits.

Part of me wants to go, but Headingley on a Friday night is a pig to get to, I may change my mind before Friday, depends what comes out of the club in the coming days, I don't have the stomach for more excuses.

Wow, you are seriously revelling in a player's injury. I honestly don't know how anyone can enjoy a player getting injured in the way you have. How very sad.

Losing a starting place to the bench is, to me, being dropped. Not a case of "when it suits", but that's up to your interpretation. My opinion is that Connor and Kelly were working well.

I don't disagree about Connor and Kelly working well, but we also need Sneyd to be working well.
He's not going to regain his form if he's not playing, and losing Kelly for key games at this stage of the season is bound to have been a worry. And now it's happened.
It's not as if the Kelly/Connor combination had been excluded from the Saints game.

We'll see what Friday brings, an 80 minute effort would be good!

Noticed someone criticise Griffin earlier on. Apart from maybe Fonua he's been our best player across the last two games imo. Much better from him. Obviously if Kelly is out then Connor will play 6, but if everyone is fit I'd quite like to see us go away from convention a little and try Connor at 13. He is big and physical enough to play there imo and gives us that extra pivot which would allow Shaul to roam around looking to get on the end of things rather than being involved in too many passing plays.

For me Sneyd just doesn't take the line in enough and against St's I don't think he did much if at all. It may not be a part of his game but when he actually done it he has looked a far better player. Think the difference when Connor/Kelly we're playing teams were second guessing due to the running and unpredictablilty of the partnership where as Sneyd can be very predictable at times.
Hopefully Kelly won't be out too long but he has been targeted a lot of late so but of a break may do him some good.

If we can all see this, then presumably our coach can and should be encouraging him to run more and kick less. As you say he looks a completely different player when he backs himself. Lets hope Friday is the day he starts to show it regularly.

People have been saying that for a while now, is it an element of laziness or is he lacking confidence?

Can't really blame any kr fan for enjoying Kelly getting injured when you consider what he did to rovers and the end result.I'd feel the same TBH. It's not like he's in hospital with a suspected broken neck or even a career ending injury. Always going to get stick though for posting on here and quite right. Fingers crossed fit for the semi but if not 90%+( no players 100% this time of year) wouldn't risk it.

Absolutely agree, criticism of Griffin on his last two performances is completely unjustified IMO.

FFS will people stop going on about Sneyd attacking the line!!!! Its not his game!!!! Hes an organiser and a kicker - now these are areas he could improve on as hes very hot and cold and needs more consistency but lots of that depends on how the teams playing. The pack doesnt have to be dominating but the team has to be playing good percentage rugby for Sneyds game to work and unfortunately too many errors ruin our percentage plays and nullifies Sneyds key attributes

FFS as you put it whilst it may not be his game in your opinion the fact he actually has the ability to do it and when he does he looks a far better player is what is frustrating as he has shown this season. So to say it's not his game is tosh when he's shown he can do it, otherwise he his a one trick pony and totally predictable.
