One of the few who played well last night, his try saving tackle turning the Leeds man on the line would grace SOO. I know we all see matched differently but I didn’t think it was that much

As i said im not knocking the lad yes it was a great tackle but had he not missed tackle 20 30 meters downfield it wouldnt of been needed but quality to lad to get back.other than that never noticed him in the game so while not doing anything wrong he to me didnt do anything good.think its unfair to chuck at kid into a team clearly lacking confidence though and im sure he got s bright future

I would agree that Sau runs the ball in hard - but gets stopped dead and flipped on his back almost every time; he's willing, but unable.

Quite a few of our forward are having this problem as well ,what chance have the backs when our forwards are been thrown all over the place .All the top teams have a dominant pack from which the backs get time to put moves on .sort this out and we have the quality in the back line to trouble any team ,keep getting mullered up front and it takes those vital seconds of the half’s to create .

It would help if all our forwards ran onto the like King and not stumble on it like England.

Indeed, attacking with a flat line isn't going to hurt anyone.
Maybe, as a team, we cant be bothered to get into the position for each play.

It was painful to watch on Friday at times struggling to get out of our own 40. We were barely even getting up to the markers on some attempts.

Off topic from the OP a little but yeah agree about our forwards hardly running onto the ball, it's basics. As is not letting a man go alone which is almost always the case early on in our sets, someone should always be backing them up to try and hold a defender up and stop them getting smashed.

So If that's not the coaches fault who's is it

Agree with you here Willzay. King has a very competitive running style and IMHO puts England, Hirst and Huby to shame.
