Did he get injured today? He played about 20 minutes and only took in 3/4 drives gave away a penalty and then never returned in the 2nd half. Seems like a waste of a sub unless he was injured. Anyone know?

Something has changed with Lee as he is absolutely shocking this year, his whole game is crap at the minute from tackling to running the ball in. We are currently in the process of teaching him how to play rugby again.

Heard TKL was doing the teaching, Lee has only understood 50% of what TKL has taught him, ie he is turning up in body but his mind is awol, just wait till he cracks the boby being awol as well.

hobson is our only aggressive forward, every team needs 1 or 2.
But in reality, he wouldn't even 'made the bench' in our millward/terzis/abram/benson years.

To be aggressive you need to hit and take up hard, I must have missed something, all I see is dropping at the line and never first in, followed by half backs running at him and penalties/knock ons.
He takes nothing out of the opposition anymore, cookson is a far better option from what we have.

A wasted shirt yesterday not contributing at all!
I've been going to Batley for many years however, its really farcical, if a team plays down the slope they score points and in the second half the opposition score We played up the 'hill' second half hence, Hobson of no USE!
