not the player he was , looked off the pace to me ,lazy defence 3rd man in the tackle

He hag good game yesterday maybe Joel Clinton has taken a bit of pressure off him more like the old vella IMO

he went better yesterday, maybe any lingering knee probs are starting to fade, id still like to see him in the 2nd row running out wider.

Week is a long time in Rugby League



Many fans MOTM yesterday and a great display by Vella. With Clinton gradually building up game time will be sharing the workload and causing opposing packs plenty of problems.

Best game in a Rovers shirt for quite a while. Ran hard and strong, covered all over the park in defence and set a captains example.

More of this please Mick.

Thanks very much. Mick must have read this as he had a stormer and was mine and more then a few others MOTM.
