He appeared to make more yards with cleaner breaks during that period.
Yes he did for obvious reasons but I can't knock Logan thought he did well!!

I thought faz and Joel both ran their blood to water and defended like demons. Look what happens when we cut out the silly penalties. Our attack wasn't the best and we looked rudderless at times but we stopped them playing and took more of our chances than they did.one of my on going concern it tautie (spelling) he only seems to play 20 mins per game at minute, some of our forwards looked out on their feet at times and we only used him for 20mins.

I think LT has really improved from his previous spell at Wigan.

Two different players with different styles who change the order of play when they switch. It used to be the same when Micky spelled Piggy!

And I hope they do. He averages about 19 minutes per game.
Nice work if you can get it! :lol:

Clubb was very good today and his 4 tackles led to the Saints error which we scored from.

Rocky deserves to keep the fullback spot for a few more games

Liam Farrell was a pain for the Saints in defence and attack.

Yes but Logan isn't Piggy. That's the problem.

What I don't get about Wane's substitution policy is he seems to take his best front row of en-masse at the same time roughly 10 mins before the end of the first half.

He then plays the second choice for another 10 mins in the 2nd half and then puts the first choice back on.

It's like clockwork and doesn't seem to take account of what is going on, on the pitch

I thought the substitutions worked really well yesterday, he had fresh Mickey, Clubb and Moose returning for the final twenty minutes and Saints could not cope with them.

I thought Joel Tomkins had his best game since returning, he made many great tackles throughout the game and played the full 80.

The whole team played well, Clubb and Moose were immense. Clubb is the future for me, along with Bateman.

I also thought Joel was excellent and Moose is starting to look good again

Mossop's last 20 minutes were international class.
