Tomkins to profit from an overdue pre-season

Post by josie andrews »

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

A right sided attack of Gelling, Joel and Manfredi would be devastating for any opposition. We had a small insight last season as to what they are ccapable of.
They are pretty good as a defensive unit too with all three being able to tackle as well as defend.

I hope they benefit from a good off season and we see the very best of them in 2016.

I hope so. Hopefully a break, and not playing 80 minutes every game next year, will help improve his engine and defensive decision making, because for all the good moments in attack there were as many disappointing moments in defence
in the world of mules, there are no rules

Provided he is fully fit I think we will see a better Sam T on his return than the player who left us.

It's about Joel cp, not Sam but agree with your sentiments re Sam

Looks like Sam will be getting a rest as well now. Out of the international series with a knee injury.

Hope so as there are (imo) only two ways this can go now. He either improves dramatically on this season's efforts or he ends up at Salford with Logan

The biggest Room is the Room for improvement.

The best form of defence is attack!!

Out of the black and into the red, remember you don't get anything for two in a bed!!
