What I will say however is that there is not a better defensive coach or motivator in Super League and possibly beyond that. He is also signing well in my opinion.
What he needs is a good attacking coach alongside him and we will progress from where we are, which isn't a bad position to be honest.

spot on

Regardless of this, as John Monie said, defence wins matches and it did today

How poor our attack has been all season our defence is the opposite. Best defence in the SL era. As you say flower was a no brainer to play.

How much of a gamble Lockers was is debatable as Shorrocks got exposed last week a bit by Hull.

Our defence is NRL level. We get an attack to match we could dominate SL for a few years.

This is a really interesting quote just seen the game again and ISA in defence was devastating at times. Whilst not the most celebrated player to come in the last 5 years certainly the cleverest piece of business. And that was something I scratched my head on but now it looks like a good signing a bit like the Carmont one.

Good point.
