True

80 mins every week will do him no favours, last time he got motm he was poor the week after. Berro will be needed to play a bigger role against Wigan next week especially against the experience of Piggy.

Don't forget Roby.

If swainesque were a word it would be fitting for his performance last night

Didnt do Swainy any harm.

Not at the time but he is suffering serious arthritis issues now!!

Never played rugby in my life or any other sport so how come i have arthritis

Progressing towards an England call-up according to Fitz in the HDM who by his standards is quite gushing in his praise.

If he keeps up this standard he will not be far off imo.

3/4 years of 80 mins will finish him I reckon. He would just burnout, I am sure Roby could do it but Saints would not dream of asking him to on a regular basis.

Have they got a replacement for KC lined up for next season?

Hopefully with Watts in the England front row eventually

Him from Eastenders? I think they killed him off again.....

Every chance I would think. Watts looks a quality young prop, very similar to Lee Crooks IMO and not shy when it comes to a bit of biff.

With everyone fit , I don't think Houghton will do 80 min's .His form and attitude are helping us out of a hole atm. I would like to see him taken to Aussie if not to play, then for the experience.

Aye, Scott Moore.

He is playing well but we certainly do not need him with his feet in the air right now , he is progressing under the guidance of Shaun but keep his feet firmly in the UK for another couple of seasons, he has a long way to go yet , remember the physical battering he recieves week in week out as opposed to Briscoe .. let him develop a wee bit first
But he is special

?

To see a poorly coached side get anhialated by the Aussies?

Not really a positive life experience.

Dunno about poorly coached as the current set up is one I have more confidence in than most however the simple fact is he is not at international level just yet and the last thing he will need after a tough season is even more rugby, he is better served on a beach somewhere recharging the batteries and repairing sore limbs

McNamara, failed at Bradford, good enough for England?

when you look at the list of current Super League coaches who are English, there was only McNamara, Agar and Mcdermott to choose from, as Noble and Kear had been involved previously. All 3 are not good enough, so it was a choice of who's the least carp of the 3 of them , which sums up Super League coaching at this level.

Why did it have to be someone English?

Why did it have to be a current SL coach?

It doesn't matter who it is - our players aren't as good as theirs. We could get Wayne Bennett, Mal Meninga and Stephen Kearney in, and we'd still be some way short of the Aussies.

Smith failed for England good enough for Warrington??
Given the resources Steve was given I think he did very well to be fair

Not being good enough is a term you can only use AFTER the event because for all we know for example JK could have been reappointed and won the world cup this time around and as such you can only use that after the event OR if failure at international level is the yeardstick of ability then what is Smith doing at Warrington, Noble with Crusaders??

Hey EXPRO, I am a teacher and your grammar is poor. Where are your full stops and commas?
Back to school at once and re-write your statement so that it is readable and understandable to the observer!
