I think it had a good deal of symbology in it, not only directed towards brough, but also towards the knockers over the last week. After losing 41-24, winning 41-22 has a certain symmetry to it!

I think the best halves can mix it. It makes them unpredictable. If a halfback is pass pass pass then teams more or less guess he will pass but when they mix it up and dummy and go a few times (the right time) then they usually coast thru.
I'm not saying he should run lots if times but few times a game. The best halves can do the lot and I'm 100% certain Walsh can mix it up.
Eric Hughes once told me to not take the ball in at all during the first 15/20 mins of the game ( unless it's wide open) and just keep laying balls on etc then when the team gets it in there mind your just going to pass, a dummy and go and you'll cut thru them like a hot knife thru butter and he was spot on.

Haha. Pot and kettle? You're reverting to type by trolling on a Saints site. Seriously, does your Mrs not keep you amused? Do you not have any Wigan U12's games to watch? You're an absolute clown and it's no wonder that nobody takes you seriously on here.

I wasn't trolling, merely offering an opinion. It is an open forum isn't it?

You'll not get rid of Rogues that easily, St Helens is his second town after spending many, many years in Pocket Nook.

I'm not that daft. You weren't offering an opinion. You were being deliberately provocative, looking for a reaction. I'm surprised the Mods let you get away with it.
Everyone could see that he played well and it was by far his best performance. Everyone at the ground knew it, the people watching SKY knew it and the entire commentary/pundit panel knew it. The only person who has suggested it wasn't much different to normal is you, and that is because you are a silly old fool with presumably a dull life and you get your kicks out of Saints forums. I feel sorry for you.

| Having finally watched the game last night, I can't say for sure how quickly Mose was getting back into the line etc due to the limited camera span and I FF through the half/full time analysis.
I can say that he was making significant yards per carry, genuinely pushing them back in contact and putting his hand up for work. Ask the Hudds forwards (who were near full strength, I think) who was causing the most problems and they'd have said Robe and Masoe.
That's a Hudds pack that shalacked Wigan and drew with Leeds early in the season, so it just goes to show how on different weeks team can perform totally differently.

There was reference by someone - Nathan Brown I think - in comments following the Warrington debacle at Etihad about overseas players and their commitment, and also Paul Wellens made (positive) reference to Soliola's attitude as an overseas player in the matchday programme last week so it is possible that our new recruits haven't fully appreciated the nuances of English rugby league.
