I noticed Joel Tomkins was here and JP the coach was here.

They were both in Catalans last night.

Forgot to add. The Welsh lad Davies is an interesting player. He is like Hock in that he does not look overly big biut is very strong. Still a bit raw as one would expect but he is hurtful in the tackle and a hard runner.

Didnt look too impressive to me.

Stand Out players where:

Thornley, Gaz Melling, Massam, Davies, Farrel.

Dont think gerrards a six.

That was actually one of Ben Davies poorest game this season if not his poorest. Kyle was okay. Melling okay.

Thornley and Farrel were the standouts.

No the welsh lad has something. Bradford players who were very good were wincing in some of his tackles and he was strong taking it up. Whether he can get up to speed in RL know how, time will tell.

Gerrard hard to tell. I think bringing all the players back from reserves etc made them less coherent.
