Move him to the second row, next year

Half right. Pearson wanted to see good attacking Rugby AND winning Rugby.

Thank you for providing the good attacking Rugby.

Do come again.

Ha ha this was funny Marcus,

I wonder what Jones makes of playing for FC

He’s basically been asked to run the ball in like a prop in the last 2 games

He’s probably wondering why we aren’t throwing the ball around and putting him in 1 on 1 situations instead of driving it in and seeing 3 tacklers waiting for him

In game 2 as well ha. I was nervous there but watching back on tv it was obvs we were always gonna win that. Always had something there to pull it out when needed

He seems very chipper on social media this morning. Looks a right signing thus far.

As long as he is playing well (which he is) and we are winning (which we are) I think he will be happy. As the year goes on hopefully we will start to change style a little but at the start of the season in potential rubbish weather each week I think we are all happy to just be getting wins on the board.

Fariamo is our man for the wing...Swift ok but stood out like a sore thumb him not there last night imo

Get him outside Griffi/fonua and jones and it's an opposition's nightmare

He's playing pretty much like every other 2 nd row in SL is in round 2
He's also best I can tell playing entirely identical to how he played at salford. 145 m 5 tackle busts ..12.5 m average carry ..2 offloads. He'll walk the SL dreamteam spot with those numbers weekly.

Also well done to the club how they orchestrated it. Great to hear him praise the club and the fans and how much he enjoyed his time over here. He seemed genuinely moved with the adulation he received when he walked around the pitch. Absolute legend.

totally agree.

I thought the pre match as a whole was very good last night. Well done to the club.

18 penalties in the game,9 each.

Has anyone got the footage of him leading our victory song?

Love to see it.

Is that 9 tries weve scored and not one from a kick to the corner? Must be the purtell effect

That sneyd houghton combo worked well, did a few seasons back, but seemed to missing last couple of seasons

Bench player for me.

Enjoyable game - we won without really getting out of second gear. Rovers played well and wont be going down if they can play like that every game

Fonua looks huge and like he needs to lose a few pounds for me

Shaul was poor last night. Dropped at least 2 high balls and missed another couple of kicks where he just stood and watched it bounce

Swift was swift. I don't really rate fairamo but hope hes fit and back in next week

Sao is proving to be a great signing. His stats for last week aren't on the sl website but I expect they were similar to last night's which were excellent. Looks like he can do big minutes too

It's odd that, Sao's stats don't appear for either of our games this season on the SL website.

Maybe hes a ninja

Good tough derby. Stronger team won. Credit to KR for the basketball try but I enjoyed the numerous times Griffin went round the outside of Rovers. Lots for us to work on. I think of the two teams last night one was playing about as well as it can and the victors have a deal of improvement to find. Great start to the season.

I didn't think Shaul was MOM last week, and he was poor last night. He needs to be on the shoulders of Sao, Satae, Jones and Savelio looking for those offloads all the time.

Give Wynn a game at wigan if shaul plays like that next week
