Very good game tonight. Linked with Smith very well, who likewise had a decent game.
With Sam coming back, it certainly does give Wane a very nice headache for next year, because although he dropped a couple tonight, im a massive fan of Rocky.

I will hazard a guess that we have probably only seen about 75% of what George can actually perform to, that is a frightening thought!!

I would think so TB. He has had some really special skills since he was a junior. The big question IMO has always been will he fill out too much / slow up but at the moment he has more than enough speed / evasion. Tonight for me he was far more assured than he has been all season.

He also had the forwards lay a bloody good platform for him tonight. Off the back of that, he can thrive and show his true potential.

I think his optimum position in terms of halves is 7/first receiver.

He is top drawer, why some want to see him as a bench replacement for MM I will never know. He is the best half back in the club by a distance.

It helps that he's playing behind a pack that is now working. I said before the season he will be wearing 7 for England in the next world cup. Great talent. Only area for improvement for me is kicking game - others than the dink to budgie he's been poor. But he's young enough and good enough to put anything right.

We have a very able deput for MM in Logan Tomkins often under rated but works his socks off and rarely gets the plaudits he deserves.

Never a problem for Andy Greg was it?This kid is class-his break for the first try was out of the Jonathan Thurston manual-"what's he doing..oh yeah..I see now! "-reads the game brilliantly for a young lad.Once he's perfected his long passing game and practices his kicking a bit more he'll be a monster.
