Didn't the psychiatrist say he would only get paid if we finish in play off position?

Maybe that was just really attempt at reverse psychology.

but I [iwould[/i go mad if I didn't have a game to watch..

It might be a mental problem by now but it definitely started as a physical one. Nas and Sidlow are respectable SL props who are playing like rubbing rags.

The pack which destroyed Hull FC in the home practice game [now minus Carvell and Scruton had just gone through the same pre-season though and they were certainly physical enough then.

Excellent point. Maybe it underlines the size of the holes Carvell and Scruton left.

Yes, one of the reasons I am so hacked off with the team at the moment. Nas had the opportunity to lead from the front once Scruton and Carvell were gone, but he's instead been tame.

Yeah, that's the weakest part of his game. He's similar to Karl Pryce in that he doesn't seem to know how to use his size to the greatest advantage as he stops just short of the collision rather than try and burst forward

Forgot about the Hull game. By time we played Cas at home we made Huby look like Kevin Ward. Fair enough a lot had gone on in between but are we saying the players aren't trying?

To be fair to Manu he looked better today. He's not been alone in playing poorly.

It's about showing some eagerness to be involved - in the last few games and the start of the Cat's game today we were generally hanging back in defence and not supporting in offence - then someone flicked at switch today and as a team they were looking for the ball and work. Don't know what made the difference but the confidence so lacking recently seemed to come back - lets hope we show the same hunger in the next few games.

On holiday so missed the game but the reason I picked out Nas is that he's in the top 10 props in the comp when in form.
