Do you play him and present it as a chance to redeem himself? Peet will make a judgement on what's best - we need Cust firing for the run-in and play-offs.

I do agree that it's a good chance for Halsall to be given a go. No Hall, Keinhorst or Kenny-Dowall in their three-quarters. Maybe give Big Willie a rest and play KPP in the 2nd row?
No Mikey Lewis either.
I wish we could get hold of that lad.

I don’t like him, he’s like Welsby at saints too big for his own boots! He holds his arms up to HKR fans as if he wants adoration, like Welsby 😂😂
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

He’s a good player and will get better. Good scrum halves need a bit of cockiness 😀

I didn’t like Edwards standing with legs akimbo, hands on hips & nodding his head.

If you are excellent at what you do, a bit of modesty & humility go a long way as far as I’m concerned 😊

But surely Edwards had earned the right to be cocky, I personally loved it, was like a bit of on pitch banter, These youngsters are just arrogant and have a long a way to go before getting to an Edwards level

I'm with you on this one, I didnt like the cockiness of Edward's and in my opinion he led a charmed life playing with fabulous players. There were far better players than Edward's around at the time.. That's my humble opinion

Great start.

Wilkin just commented on how good our first set was and our forwards hit it up and we were very direct. Whereas against Leeds we just kept going lateral
