Tonight he wasn't actually that good, just decent. But showed what he could be capable of when he's fit.

As I've been saying over the last few weeks you have to factor things like the sudden increase in ruck speed over here; the months he missed the game for; and finally his general fitness is hard to improve.

I really miss you at Wigan Mickey! Good luck today against Leeds!

PS

If that was Just decent then I will reassess Mickey's performances over 3 years to 1/2 dozen "Half Decent" games and 50 Poor & 50 Awful ones!

Its ironic that the poster you quoted was one of Higham's most outspoken critics.

Riddell was excellent last night.

On the subject of settling in, anyone who doesn't think it takes time, it clinging to some kind of Mickey Higham flavoured straw.

He was brilliant last night, looked to be fitter and also looked as though he has lost a bit of weight.
