Michael had a fantastic game on Sunday and I'm one of his critics, but I'll give him credit when it's due. So well done Mick, you had a good game and I hope you can carry it through and become a good player for us and lets hope you've put th stinkers well and truly behind you.

I agree. I also thought he was our best player in the thrashing at Wigan.

He's looked much better lately and has been one of the few bright spots of this season. Sadly that doesn't stop those who just don't like him from still slating him, much like the silly cow behind me at Cas.

I've also been a critic of Platt in the past, but I'm happy to admit when he's doing well (shame some others can't). Here's hoping he keeps it up.

Platt, if he could cut out the brainfarts which he keeps having, could be one of the better fb's in the league. It just seems he lacks composure and a little bit of awareness on the field.

If Platt DOES manage to keep it up, its no thanks to the so-called supporters who have booed him and generally been on his back doing their very best to screw his confidence.

I've criticised Platt a few times, but only when he's been appalling. I'm really pleased with his recent form and would be delighted to see him play like this all season. Well done Platt.

He was outstanding at Cas. He was showing more of the form that he showed when he first signed.

Platt's a good full back and performed really well in the world cup for Ireland. He didn't take that form into the first few weeks of Super League and thats disappointing!!!

He was outstanding against Cas on Sunday, had a VERY VERY good game. Needs to get outta the habit of running across the field tho. Whether thats been coached into him in terms of drawing defenders and sets in your owt 20 or whatever I dont know but he looked alot better last Sunday when he got the ball and ran down the pitch hard and fast, as opposed to running across it.
