Oh, and a special mention to the bloke near me last night, a Southstander.com luminary-

"Melbourne will put 100 points on Leeds" and the return of the "McDumbnut" tagline.

Brilliant.

Anyone know why Myler was kicking/not kicking the conversions? Hope that experiment ends soon.

He doesn't seem to strike the ball clean.

Was it mentioned why Watkins wasn't kicking?

Don't think there any other reason than just Myler was preferred. He kicked vs Cas preseason and Watkins missed two vs Warrington (tricky ones) so seemed that gave him the job back. The way Watkins talked in a preseason interview he sounded like Myler could be doing the role ahead of him.

I agree with you that he doesn't seem to hit it clean or have a good technique.
