Look at how many tackles our centres made! I'm surprised we missed as many as 16 tackles tbh.
Was interesting to see the game stats on SL extra time- our completion rate and possession was pants-and looking at the rest without seeing the score you'd have called a fairly comfortable wigan win which just goes to show clarky is wasting his time!

The stats from the two second rowers and two wingers are top quality. Crabtree also put in another great effort.
Our centres are very good in defence and Cudjoe has to be the most improved defencive player in super league from where he was a couple of years ago.

chan top tackler



ferres top metre maker




these two really are on top form at the moment in the 2nd row for us, long may it continue.

cording and robisnon 4 missed tackles each.

16 tackles missed but 11 missed by the same three palyers. the other 14 missed either 0 or 1 which is a good effort.
Cording missed most of his towards the end of his stint when he should have come off earlier, and Robbo was targetted all game.It is much harder for him then it was at hooker when he could get the tackle in before the runner had picked up pace. Now he is out wide and the runners are coming at him full pelt and with his size he is bound to miss a few, but he had Cudjoe next to him in the defencive line to help him out.

robbo is always targeted like you say but they often come up short as hes very good for his size at tackling..much better than drew and grix who have been targeted in the past.

cording should of come off i agree as he dropped of a few times later on

cudjoe solid as they come in defence

Murphys metres are impressive, i dont remember him being put free like Jerry or Ferres but averaged over 13m per carry!!

Murphy ran the ball back from the kick a few times and made good metres then.
Don't forget 90 of ferres metres came after the hooter! He really has had a great start to his first full season with us.

massive metres from murphy, would of been top until the last min with ferres!

deserves to keep his place.

If Murphy only made 3 tackles all game then i am a chinaman!!!!!

He didn't make many tackles. He saved a try with a deliberate knock on and diffused a couple of kicks but he didn't actually have to make many tackles

No cause the centres dealt with the threat before it got out wide!
