| We either use him correct, I:E kick long for him to chase or we might as well have someone like Rich Whiting on the wing, all he is used for is another forward at the moment and that isnt his game.

His game isnt about clearing his line though, he isnt that type of winger. This is where is said earlier that we dont play the game that suits his style and hopefully we will adapt and he will adapt too. We need to try some kicks for him to chase early in the tackle count etc.
Did notice on Friday he was ready to do his trademark quick tap on the 20 but the ref stopped it.

You want to try attending games and watching, rather than jumping onto other peoples opinions.
Calderwood has not cost us any tries this season, the same cannot be said for Tom Briscoe

just seen the b hodgson try, but no replay, what was hall doing?
it looked like he forgot he was playing fb and went to stop the runners, but like he does when hes playing centre he didnt really put anyone off.

When you give into the tackle like he does he gets dominated and rarely gets a good quick play of the ball.

Yes, ever since he broke into the Leeds team, whenever he has played on tv or against us, so I would imagine it adds up to a fair amount of games.
Why, has his game changed since signing for you guys?

But you've not seen [uevery[/u tackle he's been involved in?
So it was just a generalisation after all.....

I disagree..the problem is he is not getting enough ball yet..I am sure he will prove his International worth in time.

He gets us quite a lot of penalties at the PTB actually. Anyone have a stat? I can think of 3 in the first 4 games just off the top of my head.

| Thought he didn't seem quite switched-on at Huddersfield. Madness to go for the ball heading into touch.
But have no complaints over his effort. As highlighted against Catalan when he was at acting half for one tackle on his wing then followed the ball across field and was at acting half for the next play the ball. Just after that Craig Hall scored.

| Give Calderwood time, if you give him the ball as well he can be devastating, he will always put in the effort.

| Not read the thread, but Calderwood could be the biggest waste of a signing I have seen if things carry on (but then again, I only started going to rugby all the time in 2002). I have not once seen him used properly in the games so far. It's early days so hopefully things will change

i'd say since sing. he has got a chance of seeing the ball but not for a few weeks.

| He hasn’t performed particularly well so far (we are only four games into the season FFS), but the same could have been said about other recent wingers – at least Calderwood is probably earning a hell of a lot less and not tying up a quota spot.

The last time we used both our wingers hell of alot and played exspansive rugby was probably 2004 when we had Best on the right wing.
Which is a shame for Calderwood as he could score plenty of tries for us if we used him right.

Although I don't think Sing was used as well as he could have been, I wouldn't call him a wasted signing

| He's been steady and solid in defence(missed 1 tackle out of 20) could work with his centre on high kicks a bit but he's not a liability under them.I think its funny when the pass is nowhere near him and he gets blamed for it going in touch or not managing to go round the man and score in the corner,Heard him blamed a few times for that this year already.
