What do you think about... : Fri Apr 08, 2011 11:39 am  

Sculthorpe?
Pickersgill?
I'anson?
Kavanagh?

When Scully was a young lad at Rochdale he was one dirty fecker but had cracking hands i know hes been ill and thats a shame but why are you even paying him hes terrible and you can relay on him to give penalties away or try and injur an opponent when the game is lost not what you want these days

Pickersgill is like going back in time hes like a poor mans Tim Street a walking 2 Points surely you have academy players better than him

I'anson is garbage i question a 6ft Scrum Half his input was nil

Kavanagh very impressive and one you should take up to SL, if he had proper training and lost a few stone (Nanynesque) He would be awsome.

Thats just my opinion for a debate but i question the coaching i'm afraid, a decent team on paper than has given in twice in two games SL is a way off if you got to put up with that till the rest of the season.

Ben Kavanagh is coming on leeps and bounds and never fails to make us decent yards. Ive noticed he has great power in the tackle, pumps his legs and makes a lot of yards. He breaks the tackle quite frequently and we'd be stupid not to take him to SL. him along with Allen Craven Flynn and maybe Thacks are the ones id take to SL.

danny sculthorpe can barely run anymore, i thought pickersgill was decent in the first half, and ben kavanagh impressed me alot.... craven, flynn, pickersgill, kavanagh and finnigan are the players i'd take to superleague

Kavanagh ran some great lines in the first half and put his weight about, but he can't do everything on his tod so little wonder he faded a bit once our pack was on top.

I'Anson had almost 8 months out the game, he needs time to get back to match fitness and get sharp. His kicking game, when we actually get the ball and complete the set, is very good. I wouldn't say his influence was zilch, very ignorant. His attack needs alot of work but I'm obviously alot more of a patient, positive person than you are.

I think Kav' is a definite to take up and Varks the way he has been performing in his new role will be a good squad player,Gerrard is still young but he's no half back,again could be a squad player. We lacked creativity last night so that needs addressing,though Thacks was at fullback but I think teams have sussed his moves out to a great extent and his kicking to the corners are not working of late.

I'Ansons input was nil!
He may improve and am not dogging a player coming back from injury i was reffering to the last two games surely hes a not a scrum half but a 6?
Like i said i was meant to be my opinion for a debate if you can't take it don't comment you soft get!

Did he not put his point of view back across?

FWIW he was excellent against York, yes a lesser opposistion but still needed to guide the side and IMO he did well. Problem being how many players has he had outside him? Craven, Gerrard, Thacks and Coyle. We must play him 7 Thacks 6 and just stick with that for them to gel and then we'll see how they go.

Missing pre season is a tough for a half back, never mind one joining a new side as he has to leantr combinations and players movements in competitive games. We've seen a few sparks from him (offload in 1st game against Leigh for Finnigan try?) and I think he'll continue to grow!

Betts has tinkered too much with the team and needs to put players in their best postions.Craven on the wing and Thacks at fullback has to be the worst choice ever.Coyle and Lunt at hooker then we will gel better.Our pack needs to dominate more aswell to set platforms.
