you'd say Oggy at the moment, Junior made errors too and a few missed tackles. Cooky didn't come back on and Massey picked up a knock also so maybe a couple won't be risked.

Agree wholeheartedly. TigersTV has been great for me this year - only been able to make it to one home game this year (the Warrington mud bath) and 2 away games (Elland Road and the Wakey swimming pool), so its been good to be able to watch full games online.

Mitch was an absolute machine today. He was like a man possessed. Ran it in like a wrecking ball and was like a brick wall in defence.

At one point I'm sure he was in there for 4 or 5 tackles in a row, granted sometimes second or third in but that is still some effort.

Let's hope he can keep it up, contention for starting places can only be a good thing.

Great for me , I love it. Get to see all the games. Got Apple TV so stream it through the tv. Better now they have Harvey’s commentary on.

You can connect your PC via a HDMI cable which most TVs now have a port for.

Alternatively you can cast your screen by a Roku or Googlecast stick,

Last player I saw try to make 6 tackles in a set was T :)

With the emergence of Mitch Clark, who has been doing that all season for Fev n last 3 for us, it allows DP to play Lefao in his best position... 2nd row, which I think he's one of the best in the comp. It also allows Moors to play there, when he has during his Car career, he's been at times unplayable. I genuinely would not swap our pack for any in the comp. If we get the defence right out wide, we're gonna be major players as the wind up to the 8s & the GF. COYF.

great competition for places. Where do you play Wardle, Holmes, MckMeeken & Foster out of interest..

I still can’t work out why we signed Wardle with our strength in the forwards. I thought initially he may have been signed as a replacement for Webster at centre but this doesn’t seem to be the plan, barring injuries where does he fit in?

I think a inform wardle is better than a inform Holmes.so would take Ollies place imo.

How about resting Jake Webster and playing Wardle in centre? Jake is a warrior but appears to be struggling from time to time.

No wonder there was worry over Powell going I've never know a coach at least in recent times who can pluck players that nobody else is looking at and turn them into the real deal

the potential for Clarke is almost limitless. at the moment he only does one thing and that is drive it in as hard as he can (and wow he does that well) I think that powell will eventually increase his ball skills and involve him more in set moves. its what he seems to do with project players. fozzie being a prime example. looking forward to seeing his progress.
