jamie ellis : Sun Mar 04, 2012 9:24 pm  

thought he fitted in really well today and looked at ease on his debut. looked the part, and a lot slimmer as well, he is used to playing against men, as nl1 has some tough players unlike nicko who i think looks a little small still,, for me ellis looks the better of the two, for now, hope he keeps his place on the bench

He was out of position at hooker.....passing from floor was slow and all over....took a wrong kick option and gave the postition....would liked to have seen him on for Horne who was poor again.....all he did was try the kick through

A player who looked like he wanted to do a lot more than just cover dummy half , He'll get the position he wants eventually imo. Put a couple of decent kicks in today .

thought he looked ok want scared to tell other players where he wanted them.
He will get his chance in the halfs just needs more 1st team game time now. only way he will get better.

Quite. We commented that he got them moving quicker.

He still looked overweight to me. I can't believe he only decided to lose weight when he lost his place in the squad. Saying that it might have been the kick up the a*se he needed. I also would've changed him for horne

Our passing stopped when it got to Horne...........be brave rest him amd put Ellis in there. The odd ball may get to Briscoe then

Agreed, pretty handy in defense also.

He looked Sharp when he got on. In one one move he showed more zip with his step and pace than Horne did all the match. Would be tempted to give him some gametime in the halves against Widnes.

Ellis took the line on didn't he, in his brief spell - which is more than Seymour did in an entire 80 mins!

How can a scrum half not put one seed of doubt in the oposition. He was steady, don't get me wrong but disappointing for me. As for Horney, a kickathon, looks lost, doesn't know what to do with the ball.

Same old, same old - no half backs for me. Our pack dominated and laid a fabulous platform. We couldn't deliver.

Put Ellis in at 6 and see how we go.
