Some want Calderwood to score 3 tries per game and to do what no other winger in the game can do in out jump an on coming attacker for a kick.

Devils advocate - why should Raynor walk into a winning team. Calderwood has done nothing to deserve being dropped. Its not like he has cost us any tries.

If even one of the chasers had held back for that we might have had another try. The fact they they all seemed intent on climbing into Calderwood's shorts meant that when he patted it back there was a big empty space and only Huddersfield players near the ball. Not Calderwood's fault and in fact not a bad play.
I don't think he's done much wrong to be fair. Some of the passes he got on Friday weren't great and he was given the ball in the tiniest of spaces with the defence sliding across towards him. By coming back in he gets criticised, but the shouts would be louder if he'd been pushed into touch by trying for the line.

Sums it up perfectly for me, still, some people still hate him cos of his Leeds days and because he isnt a Hull lad!!

He is too lightweight, on Friday he made 5 runs and only made 18 metres, just over 3 yards a run. If he doesnt improve I can see him losing his place when Raynor is back.

Raynor is a better player.
If you are interested in Building Information Modelling (BIM). PM me.
no hes not, he excells in many parts of rugby league.
unsurprisingly driving the ball out isn't one of them but he has changed his technique so he doesn't get driven back as much as he did.
