Jack was intimating that the 17 man squad announced today was the squad for France. I had to remind him that this was the first phase of the train on squad.

Oh and check your maths re Feka and Fass on metres per carry. I think you'll find Feka makes more per carry.

Feka is so fat he can tackle people from the bench. When he falls over he makes 8 metres, it's like tackling a bag of spuds the size of a house.

Don,t think Maurie is getting enough game time to be honest, I,ve noticed quite a few games lately he,s just getting into his striden the Mick Potter brings him off.
Like to see him do the back 20mins in each half, that would improve his stats even more.
At lease Mick Potter has the intelligence to bring Roby and Maurie on at the same time, Roby opens up the play and Maurie does the tackle busting.

I just assumed Maurie was in the squad for Big Sam to smash around in training.

Not much in it really.

Maurie makes more meters per run.

Makes more tackles from dummy half

And don't miss as many tackles

the problem is that maurie looks so out of his depth at international level its unreal!! he's a good mobile prop when he's playing off of a quick play the ball and saints are all over teams like a rash!! as for carting the ball up and making hard meters as you have to do against the kiwi's and aussies he just gets hit hard and go's backwards.

when saints have the role on they are by far the best team in our league. but when they get trapped in their own half they look cluless!! because when the going gets tough the only member of your pack who puts his hand and and has the ability to do somthing about it is graham. maurie just cant do that. for a prop he is a luxury england cant afford against the the big 2 imo.
