Not trolling guys just want to ask if BJ had one of his can't be arsed days that us at Trin saw in numerous games for us?

He wasn't our worst performer by any means...

Pretty much but he wasn't alone today.

i have to say that I wasn't a big fan of BJ for the fact that he can go missing during games,why? I've no idea but it must unsettle the players around him.

Cheers for answering btw

I thought BJ at least tried today. What is evident is he plays better when he's the key man which doesn't happen when Deacon plays because everything has to go through him.

That's the nature of super league this year.

Anyone can beat anyone.

Bulls beat saints so we know how you feel.

Deacon's looking increasingly past it though he did take a couple of heavy knocks today which didn't help. Obviously clubs know that if they taregt him we lose our direction.

Deacon was never the quickest but as he gets slower he'll be easier to target. We need a new halfback for next season, no doubt at all.

Can't comment on the game, but the Celtics win has been coming for a while now. Maybe your guys just expected the win too much and so didn't come out with the fire they have done recently. There is every possibility they will string a few wins together now that the monkey is off their back (and because they have us at home in two weeks ).

Today we had the perfect chance as we had Rinaldi and Newton on the pitch at the same time it should have been Deacon taken off.

Jeez, it must be frustrating turning up not knowing what you're going to get. The side that won at the League leaders or the side that opened Celtics account. Strange!

Its hard for a player like him because there was a lack of support today, no one running on to balls for him or making spaces for him to exploit

I know he prefers second receiver but I think we need him to play at first to speed up the distribution which is how we played and beat the 2 GF teams

Worrincy did well running some good angles when he came on, we need other players to run as intelligently then we'd give the halfs more options.

Simply shipping the ball down the line is pants and far to easy to defend against.
