I hope we can keep Sam Eseh for longer

By the shackles being off I meant that they played to a more natural style suited go their abilities and strengths, rather than being shoehorned into a style they were unable to make work. I commented at the game that there were far, far fewer miracle passes, and hence fewer errors, as the style we played didn't cause frustration - an example being the difference in Mik from Hull to last night.

Oledski stats at hull. 32 tackles 18 hit ups for 199m. Shocking stats. People see what they want to see

Last night, T 34 carries 15 130 meters

Croft's 2nd try - watching on Sky, Chris Kendall sending it up to video ref - "Can you check the grounding, he was too fast for me"

Rewatching it our right edge defence was immense

With the ball he looks a natural and fluent 9. Something we’ve not had for a while. I agree his defence needs work. Until he gets decent game time at this level, we’ll never know.

It doesn’t surprise me you being overly critical of him, you’ve expressed negativity about him on here on countless occasions.

Agreed. Looks sharp with the ball. He was involved in the miss on ipape but that looked as much a tired effort from mcdonell to me.

Agree with all thats been said, Frawley looked way better too, probably his best game to date IMO. like the look of eseh, real shame we didn't get him, leeds fan too. amazing occasion and definitely a performance to match, new coach can come in and challenge now, just need some consistency in the team now we've seen they can do it, youngsters looked good too, Ned Mc is one to watch!

Agreed, just because Mik isn’t smacking people all over the shop some think he’s not effective. He’s very good, and has carried our pack for years.

Thats because people like you keep bigging him up into something he’s not. He gets plenty of game time and shows very little, and I’m not the only one who just isn’t getting it, i just don’t see what you are seeing in him,
