The season before we signed Connor go watch the game hull vs hudds

Connor played fullback and ripped us a new one, best game I've seen him play , would offer much more than Shaul offensively and defensively

Indeed he was unplayable that day and showed what a talent he is. We have a problem with the spine of the team as so far Shaul, Sneyd nor Houghton are doing enough to warrant automatic selection in the 17 let alone the starting 13.

I'd like to see Wynne in for Shaul, Johnstone in for Houghton and Connor in for Sneyd, with Swift in for Fonua and Faraimo in for Ratu. Maybe there is still too much complacency or certain players still feel too comfortable that their spot in the starting 13 wont be challenged.

Last has to shake things up and not just a little but a big one that that performance will not be tolerated no matter who you are, something that should have been done a long while ago.

Time to move Sneyd on for me, good goal kicking isnt enough. Many scoffed at Gary Schofields criticism the other year but he's been proved right.

Good scrum halves are however hard to find, espcially in Super League at the moment.

Just home from Vulcan gym and had the same conversation about our four pivots Chris, absolutely nothing coming from any of them, no teams got a chance if that's the case.

Sneyd lost all consistency, any form of attrition and too many are throwing towels in as Ellis stated.

It's weeding out and identifying the ones that are. And as you say it seems to be Sneyd, Houghton, Shaul and kelly can't cope when the going gets tough.

Throw in stupid mistakes from Fonua, Bowden, Lane etc etc then it's just a poop storm.

We need fight and passion, so I'd introduce some of the young lads who want it, mainly Brown and Wynne who look like a pair of fighters.

The sad thing is that Sneyd can 'at times' provide a master class performance.

Never with ball in hand though. Id rather have a number 7 that can put centres/wingers over for tries, than 1 who kicks some drop goals because we can't finish teams off

Sneyd isnt a ball handling 7, behind a good pack he moves us round the pitch, behind a beaten pack hes rubbish bit like gale was for leeds,

If Jones wants out and we can get a fee, I'd try and sign Fifita.

If you can find him, he doesn't wear a tracker.

Overseas quotas won't help either.

Showed really good pace today, seen it in glimpses before, really wish he’d use it more. Think it’s down to him and not liking getting tackled, needs to be a bit braver
