Great to see him get the MOTM award tonight. I know Taylor has been great but Watts has been equally as influential in recent weeks for me and turned the game back in our favour tonight. I'd like to see us give him a contract extension now. Give him a payrise as he deserves it

Yes started the season slowly but is now top notch.
What a young aggressive and talented front row we have.Just wish Chris Green would realise what a player he could be with a bit more aggression and run some angled lines instead of straight into the opposition

He will be a great player for Warrington. They've signed a good one.

ha ha you wish

Won't go to wire his lass won't move. Plus we are better then them so why would he.

He, Bowden and Taylor are a dream of a trio of front row forwards. Sneyd, Houghton and Shaul are much better players to have their platform to work off of.

Watts was fantastic tonight, his work for Shaul's excellent try was exemplary.

don't forget it was watts dodgy offload in the home game against wigan that arguably cost us the game, so he certainly made up for that one this evening

Really impressed with bowden this season, looks bigger and stronger than ever. Watts his just a class front rower, could we have the england front row come the end of the season, if you was picking it now, id say yes

World class play for Shaul's try.

Brilliant pass and a great response to the error in the home game against the Pies.

From a purely selfish point of view I hope the selectors keep on ignoring FC's players. It always interferes with pre season and coaches say we are "undercooked"

Unfortunately, I feel this year's four nations will see the team packed full of NRL playing englishmen, with super league players making up the numbers. Hope I'm wrong though.

Think the props will be Graham, G & T Burgess and Cooper, injury permitting. Probably even Sam Burgess ahead of the likes of Hill, Taylor and Watts etc

The difference between that game was he didn't need to throw that pass after working hard to be back in the game. This game however we needed that play, he learned from his mistake of when and when not to offload the ball, and after the run and half break he earned the right to throw that pass but what a pass it Was so close to the ground. I believe if he didn't make that play we couldn't have held out for much longer. That's the sign of a top prop forward, and if memory serves me right he's still only 26, he's becoming a favourite of mine, now we need to keep this group of forwards together as they are devastating at times with the ball and brutal without, they all work in tandem and no one shoots the line, it must be a nightmare for the opposition to play against, LONG MAY IT CONTINUE.

Spot on blackandwhite

He could be missing magic weekend charged grade A dangerous contact

They do play a higher standard of rugby so probably correct. Bennett will now what he's doing though and won't pick on reputation or club alone.

Agreed, but I wouldnt say that was down to the forwards, british fowards tend to go well over in the nrl, and I reckon our front row would be a match for any nrl front row

I think we'll see Greg Eden in the squad.

he's done very well on the wing when I've seen him and already has a relationship with the coach. Imagine Jack Reed is nailed on.

EGP and NFA, so ok for Newcastle.
