[quote="Wires71":3mvq269b]Seems Sam disagrees with you.
[b:3mvq269b]Zane Musgrove’s longer minutes[/b:3mvq269b]
https://www.loverugbyleague.com/post/wa ... fitzgibbon
Musgrove has played in 18 of Warrington’s 21 games in Super League this season: and the former Samoa international has played longer minutes in recent weeks than what we’re used to seeing from him in a primrose and blue jersey thus far.
“I think he’s been great,” Burgess said of Musgrove.
“I’ve been trying to get him a few more minutes, I wanted to see him in that zone of fatigue and see how he managed it but he’s been great.
“I think he’s played a lot for us, I think he’s only missed four or five games so he’s been pretty consistent for us.”[/quote:3mvq269b]
These are some stats from his last 6 matches. So he averaged 23mins per match. I'm not sure how that is him getting more minutes. He played 40mins in the London match but looks like he took it easy to allow himself to be on for that long, seeing as he only took 8 carries in.
Leeds - 14mins
11 carries
63 metres
14 tackles
London - 40mins
8 carries
74 metres
20 tackles
Hull KR - 14mins
3 carries

Wigan - 22mins

[quote="Fantastic Mr Cat":1ckb8tlj]Has he? I thought the line was he only signed on in January this year after trialing during pre season[/quote:1ckb8tlj]
I watched him play for Wigan in their Academy Semi against our Academy at the end of season play-off.
He was a substitute and scored a try in that game.
Wigan won but were disqualified for using too many interchanges.

Yea, I'm not sure why I thought he signed last season but for some reason I did until you pointed it out. It's still pathetic that he's not posted as a player and doesn't appear in any stats on the SL site

Those Musgrove stats are interesting. He is definitely not a bad player. But if you are playing <30 minutes per game, as a senior pro, you should really be blasting the opposition off the park when you are on the field, and I don't think he does that. Otherwise you are just getting someone else to do your job for you.

I've been disappointed with Musgrove and voiced it, but sitting back and thinking about it he's not actually doing a bad job.
He comes on, takes the ball up well and defends well. But i still think he plays low minutes and I think he's a bit lazy at times with little things he does.
But he's doing a job and letting Vaughan and Harrison etc get rest during games so helps avoid putting too much work on others.
Yates has been superb for that, really really happy with his signing.

I think that's why I struggle to get too exercised about it. Musgrove isn't a guy who is going to come on, give away two penalties or knock on near our own line. He averages one error in every four games and concedes one penalty in every three.
What I'd like to see is him playing longer minutes in Hull/Cas/London type games because we shouldn't have to burn out our top guys by making them playing 60-70 minutes in those sorts of games.
