No doubt Wire has been excellent but Catalans have really lacked that creative spark in attack in all the games recently, it's the same couple of moves every time. They've both been used as battering rams to start their sets from deep. It's as though they don't seem to practice set moves to set their wingers up, using clever dummy runners, players running better angles, short balls, better kicks etc.
Williams's kicking has been excellent and shows what a great kicking game can create. They've missed McMeeken and Mcllorum but tbh meters down the middle isn't what they lacked with Satae in particular having a big game. Maybe Mcllorum would have helped but they created next to nothing in Wire's 20-meter area.
Credit where it's due though, Wire has some proper steal about them this season.
I’ve also watched them a few times and I agree. Their halves aren’t firing lately but I think the biggest issue is their fullback Morgue. He’s very poor imo, doesn’t join the line or give the halves options and regularly runs out wide cutting any plays off.
