Pig was a shocking signing so Noble and/or Lenny have to carry the can. The best 9 that could be obtained is one called Aaron Payne for the NQ Cowboys. He is never goingh to play Origin due to Cam Smith but he is a brilliant playmaking hooker. Fast, great with the ball. He and McIlorum would be a great combo.

Mcilorum is better than Pig.

We obviously scored ALL our points whist Sam was on and ZERO whilst Smith was on. When will it sink in with Nobby??????????????????? Great win lads in the face of such adversity and some shocking decisions.

Michael Mc is quick, never scared to run from dummy half, alert to opportunities, tackles hard and has a real hooker's attitude. Riddell is slow and, basically, pretty boring!

The bit I have hlighted in bold is spot on. Mik, Mcilorum is stronger than he looks as well in my opinion.

What irritates it that when we got him from Leeds he was in the top 4 of the whole club re fitness/endurance etc. Now he cannot play for the full 80 to the intensity he wants. Roberts seems slower than he did in the NRL. Calderwood criticised Wigan's training. Lee Mossop had to do extras at Huddersfield.

Surely, the conditioning side is letting the club down badly.
