League position is irrelevant at this stage.

I caught 10 mins of your game against Celtic on the radio, with in 2 mins of listening a bomb was put upto Calderwood, obviously he lost the ball and a Celtic player picked it up and put it down under the sticks. The try was not given but I dont think its the first time he has looked dodgy under the high ball. His tackling isnt that bad but he doesnt fill you with confidence.

Well he cant do much worse than last seasons scoring record!

He had a 1 in 2 ratio at wigan, that's not too shabby. The high bomb is the only thing defensively he struggles with and to be fair he's only struggled with 3 or 4. One on one he's looked solid and with his positional play and decision making in defence being spot on so far i am pleasantly surprised. Yes you can say that a winger should be there to score tries but we don't use our wingers like other teams do and while it's not happening offensively the only thing he can do is be good in defence which on the whole he has been.

It was nice to see Horne back on form last night for you guys (and back with some weight on), hope he has a stinker in the derby like but you can only take your hat off to a try like the one he scored last night.

One thing that jumps out at me from that is that whilst we have the best attack in the league, we also have one of the worst defences. Something we certainly need to sort out.

We have played a game more and we had the Catalans game and the Hudds game won by the last couple of minutes so conceded soft tries at the death. It gives a slightly false impression in the against column. We keep saying before each game "this as a proper test, now we'll know how good we are".
We look a professional outfit and we are doing the basics. Horneys try was class and Dannys kicking. Sky were slagging us off for taking two points at a penalty, Look how important his kicks turned out to be. COME ON YOU 'ULL!!!
