5 if you count interchanges and Raleigh is injured so you've answered your own question

A little bird told me he's hoping to be back for the Salford game

Have you noticed all the trys he scores, seem to be from 5 yds out and straight over defence line via dummy pass. All his trys seem to have a trademark about them, I'm sure all SL coaches will pick up on it.

Excellent signing tho for Giants.

Cunningham's been doing it at Stains for years!!! they not picked up on that yet!!

Perhaps, but he has been throwing scrappy passes out from minute one recently

Really I am just playing devils advocate, Faiumu is, in my opinion a better option than either Lunt or Moore - his passes are crisper, his go forward is better (at the moment) and so he should get the bulk of the game time I think.

Am I right in thinking Lunt has scored in each match he has played in? Certainly seems like he has...definately a rising star of the game anyway.

As has been said, if Faiumu is playing at 13, where then for Wild? At 13 he is superb, utterly his best position

all in all, we have a great back row, and great centres, and 3 very good hookers

I must be missing something cos the games I watch Faiumu has not broke one tackle, has slowed the ball down when passed along the line, he dummys outside and the inside and the chance is gone.

He has wicked side step but seems to step too early for me meaning all he achieves is he stops his own momentum.

Might just be me missing something but would take Moore every time over faiumu at hooker and we have much better 13's at the club.

Then again it's easy to be critical when sat in the stands and is a differen't ball game when out on the park.

I think you must be missing something, maybe you are watching the wrong player

Go and watch the highlights of recent weeks, we are put on the backfoot by sloppy passing by moore, and the front foot by quick hands from the ruck by Faiumu.

Will politely agree to disagree on this one Code 13, Moore for Hooker everytime for me (must of been doing something right to make the England squad!!)

Back 3 now Kirmond is out would be Raleigh, Wild and Finnigan at Loose with Mossop coming off the bench

Fair enough, and yeah, he is technically a Saints player

Moore has got his form back since I wrote that though, and got back on the front foot, at the time of originally posting that, my points stands I think

Sounds fair, I think I like wild at 13 more and Finnegan at 2nd row though
