I think to be fair to Masoe he's been put on a programme designed to get him fit. He's clearly worked hard to shift the excess timber and is doing pretty big minutes now without any real signs of excessive fatigue. Once Saints are happy with his fitness I'm sure he'll go to playing fewer minutes but being told to wind it up and go all out in short bursts.
The fact the attacking structures are such an utter disgrace probably isn't helping him either. The distribution is so, so slow, meaning most of the time the forwards get the ball stood still with five men rapidly descending on them.

I noticed that and agree, he's been out out there at times to gain match fitness and looks like he's put the effort in as he looks in good shape really.
But come on, we played Wigan in a Good Friday derby at a packed out Langtree park and he was poor. No aggression in his running or defence. That's a big big game for us yet still lacked aggression.
Also, Leeds away in the challenge cup is massive! He couldn't break out a paper bag again.
I get your point but these games he should have fire in his belly, he should be full of emotion but he's dead, the is nothing there at all. You don't need to be committed.
Would wane allow for this? 100% no!
