I was impressed with Gilmour, even in the first half when we wasn't playing too well. When he had the ball, he looked dangerous and made a couple of half breaks. He doesn't seem to want to pass, but he looks likes he going to be solid and made a fool of Johnson a few times. I thought he played well, probably our best player in the first half.

I think he looked after Armstrong better than Talau would have done.

I think people will see just how good his defence is this year.
Gilly is a fantastic player, underated at saints I think

Difficult to judge when he was only playing opposite Paul Johnson, who is an inferior 2nd rower playing out of position. Gilly probably wont get that much space round the outside of another centre at all this year.

It will also be a different task defending against a proper centre as the season progresses. It was Huddersfield who cut him to shreds in the game he played at centre last year, so will be interesting on Sunday to see how he copes.

Needs to have more faith in his winger, although he was hopefully trying to protect Armstrong a bit - once Meli gets in, he will be able to use him more (or as the season progresses and Armstrong develops into a first team winger).

It also looks like he has been working on his speed a bit more, because he looked a lot leaner and faster than in previous years.

Overall, a good start.

If he had been a new signing from Aus, we would have been saying what a great addition he is to the team after his try, but cos he is just Gilly, he is taken for granted. Top performance from him.

Location: Wigan, unfortunately.
He played well and looked dangerous in attack. Just needed to use his winger more often.

Absolutely spot on,

sometimes I wonder if people are watching the same game as me.
He could of made 1 obvious pass to the winger that he didnt, but it was the wingers first ever SL game, his defence is one of the best, and he started the come back with a try

Couldnt ask for any more could we?
