I think Walmsley has the skills to go up a level to SL but I dont think grix has the capability to take him there . It cuts both ways in a player coach relationship . Time will tell.

Walmsley is the type of player that can win a game when the games tight. He has the speed and ‘Xfactor’ to produce when it matters. As others mentioned Grixy may have seen this game as an opportunity to get Tibbs in to show him what he can offer us this season should we need to call on him.

Just to touch on the point of Tangata and incorrect play the balls… i don’t think its open to interpretation - the Batley game which i was at and the Leigh game i watched ont tele, he got to his feet and fell after playing the ball. Its a penalty all day long and will continue to be punished for it, He needs to cut it out. The worst penalty to concede is one when you have the ball!

Totally agree.

Play the ball is open to interpretation as the referee has to decide if a genuine attempt to play the ball has been made which involves using the heel to kick it back which doesn’t happen all the time , plenty of games where the decision can go either way in a similar vein to reefing the ball out / knock on rule . Like I said in my original post tangata given that he’s a repeat offender needs to work on it , regardless. Also an incorrect ptb doesn’t result in a penalty but possession given back to the opposition . https://www.loverugbyleague.com/post/rf ... -for-2020/

Talking of Tangata, as well as playing the ball correctly it's about time the rest of his game stepped up. Aye, he's a decent player at this level but I'd like to see more from him than he has shown so far this season. To me he just isn't showing us what he is capable of. Very average so far. Up The Fax!

Looks like walmsey is back in anyway as tibbs is in the Huddersfield reserves squad along with Oakley , Martin and calcott, ashworth and mason also in the reserves.

Re: Walmsley : Fri Apr 01, 2022 10:54 am  

Oh I should have added Calcott to my fall guy post. Can't remember seeing the lad have a bad game for us and seems to make good yard with the ball. Another that is usually one of the first out of the team though.

Totally agree! Never puts less than 100% in. This whole sharing reserves job will all end in tears.
