Catching the high ball yesterday! although he his normally very solid

He's not called Sam

or play for Wigan.

Surprised Bennett could stay awake long enough to hold a coffee morning.

Fully agree with Jake.

Whats pi****g me off is that, I get all the "coffee morning" "meet and greet" "hello to last years squad" etc etc. we all get that I think. And I think its a good idea in principle. Its just the way its been executed thats the problem.
I wonder if it really means nothing to Houghton, Shaul, Watts Bowden etc and other form players in other teams, when they can see exactly whose been invited ?

You've got to admit in the light of actual on the field playing form, its a total travesty. Including many players who've been consistently labelled as rubbish this season by their own fans when at the same time many in-form players who have outperformed them have not been asked in "for a coffee." Well it's just plain wrong.
The bias towards 2 teams in particular is painfully obvious and smells bad to me.

So its up to our 4 mentioned above, and others, to raise the bar even higher i suppose. Which may not be a bad thing for all concerned, But it shouldn't have to be this way.
Poor man management by Bennett and Betts in my book, which could easily disillusion rather than motivate. I'm sure Radders will manage that one for our players should it be an issue.
Rant done.

What's to say our form players even like coffee?

any squad that's got matty smith in it,cant be taken seriously.phil windley had more talent.

Bennett might even get rangi chase to make a comeback.

Good point pal, never thought about that.
False alarm, Bennett will probably find his 'Gold Blend' after all.

Finally someone who understands the hooking role. Roby can only do so much with what he has to work behind. A 9 in attack is only as good as their pack. For example, look at Houghton this year. He has always been a good player but this year he looks a great one. He hasn't turned into a great player over night, it's just the players he is playing behind are winning the arm wrestle and are better players.

Another case in point is Clark. He was great in 2014 for Cas. He then went to a struggling Wire side in 2015 and struggled. He didn't turn into a bad player over night, it's just difficult for a 9 to play well behind a dominated forward pack. Often you hear 'Houghton out played Roby' or back in 2014 whenever we played Cas 'Roby outplayed Clark', both nonsense statements. Hull FC's pack have dominated Saints' pack this year meaning Houghton has had more to play on the back off, that's all it is. It was the same when Saints played Cas in 2014.

We have some fantastic 9's at the moment. Roby, Hodgson, Houghton and Clark all look top players. For me, however, Roby with Clark coming off the bench would be my personal choice despite Hodgson playing in the NRL.
