The lines Faz runs in attack are outstanding, just as good at it as Hoffman for me.

It's also easy to forget that he is still only 22 years of age.

Hope he does a hansen and keeps getting bigger.

Quote Rogues Gallery="Rogues Gallery"Another 36 tackles yesterday at Cas with none missed again. Also our top metre maker. www.superleague.co.uk/match_report/8792'" Farrell definitely missed a tackle in the game yesterday because I remember myself and people behind me commenting when it happened that it was his first of the season Still great effort from Faz again and he been the best player IMO this season, if he keeps this up he has to be in the England squad come the end of the season!

Indeed. People could compare Hock to lots of hard working players or players who are consistent throughout a game but that simply isn't the type of player Hock is.



I find it surprising that so many think we'd be better off without Hock or that Farrell is much better considering Hock was good enough to make the Dream Team last year, was one of our best players overall, was no doubt quite high in the 1-2-3's after each game and was generally praised for how well he was doing after returning from his ban.



Farrell is doing brilliantly but there's a massive deficiency in his game and in that of Hansen, Hughes and Tuson too - they don't offload well enough, if at all. We caused so many problems with Hock taking the ball into contact and offloading to Tomkins and we just don't have that threat anymore. Farrell has only made 1 offload this year while Hock has already been creating tries for Widnes with his offloads.

Often second rows are about partnership. Potter the brilliant defender and Goodway the fantastic attacking runner. Farrell and Hansen seem quite similar. If you then had Hock off the bench then you would have a trio of second rowers offering everything.

if were playing this game, i think id rather have joel back than hock.

Farrell and Hansen and Joel. Nice thought.



Doubt it will happen but you never know.

In an ideal world you want forwards to excel at everything but I think Farrell would be a good shout in an England pack provided he's paired with someone who complements his abilities.

His tackle on Menzies last Friday was a game changer.

Had the Catalans man scored when we were 6-0 up it could have been a different game. I think Wigan would have still won due to far greater fitness levels but a score then would have raised the Dragons intensity and changed the nature of the game.

Well done Liam!

He did, wrong place wrong time

I'm sure he gave away at least 1 penalty as well.
