Yeah agreed made some good yards, need to see the missed try again, thought he should have attacked the ball and scored, seemed to wait for it too long and the bounce got away from him. Not his worse game, but not sure he is the long term solution on the wing.

Agreed, as watched the game as currently in Florida and it the one Thaler gave as a McIntosh knock on was definitely a knock on by Miski as he got his hands to it and tipped it into McIntosh’s head. He just looks so uncomfortable and low on confidence under any ball. Unfortunately despite his hard work tonight he’s still for me a weak link in the team due to the issues when the ball is put in the air.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Agree on Houghton. I can fully understand why Clifford took the glory, he came up with the big plays to get us the most points on the night, but Houghton rolled back the years out there tonight. He looked fresh and not haggard and hopefully that's a good sign for the rest of the season.
What a difference a few weeks makes, fantastic effort, a few things I could nitpick about but I wont, with that level of determination we will win more than we lose
Great win. Defence outstanding. Trueman tackle won us the match as if he had allowed a quick play the ball Wigan had a huge overlap. Clever play. Well done lads

I admit I’ve been critical of Houghton but tonight again much like against Huddersfield he rolled back the years and has been the most affective at 9 in the past couple of games. Can see why Leeds weren’t fussed on keeping Dwyer but at least he gives us some speed which we lacked prior to him signing.

Dwyer may be of more use on a dry, hot day, you know one of those weekends we see once a year

Satae for me looks to be going through the motions and he is moving on
You really do talk some s.hite. Satae going through the motions . Did you see any of his runs tonight?. Properly won't see much of you this week as we won.

Satae on his day is one of the best props in the comp. The issue for me is that in his time here, him and Sao have largely had to carry the pack, so their effectiveness is diminished because their workload is increased. If we have a more balanced pack, the consistency from Satae and Sao increases.
