I would completely agree with your comments about Mitch over McIntosh, who looks scared to death and should be hooked, for his own sake to regain some confidence. No doubt there is a player in there , but we haven't got the version of the one he was at Huddersfield, so maybe a run in the reserves , where he should excel would help him , more than being in a side that is blatantly in disarray and not a unit, working together. I do like Litten though, if he carries on his upward trajectory, there is a classy fullback there and I would personally move Hoy to 6 to partner Clifford, until Truman is fit, with Litten taking on the fullback role, rather than as a makeshift winger. Hoy is a player I don't think is enjoying his UK venture and I am doubtful that'll he'll be with us for the entire length of his contact. One visit to Australia in the off season, if he stays that long, will probably be enough to convince him not to return, which is a shame because he is a good player. We'll see against Warrington, who is and isn't being retained, and I just hope they can show some pride in the shirt and appreciate the fans who endure far too many maulings. I think it could go two ways, an absolute hammering or a gutsy 12-16 point loss, I just don't see a win in that side against a top team.

What are you basing this on?
Going by his and his partner's SM they seem to be having a great time, recent results notwithstanding.

Like Tony Smith's barber?
I would hope he does look sullen the way we are playing. I'd be more concerned if he was grinning after recent games. As for lack of effort, that would mean that pretty much the full squad want out.

I must have missed the meteoric rise in his performances.
He is not outstanding but a far better option to what we currently have. Litten is too lightweight at the monent for a wing and most fans see that McIntosh offers little and makes too many errors. What Mitch does offer is a good defence,is strong and can make meters bringing the ball out of backfield which we continue to do do with two very lightweight wingers whilst our forwards are all standing around blowing out of their ars-. Mitch is no speedster but has sufficient pace to go the length of the field.
