| Needs to improve his attach, but was very solid last night, took all high balls and saved two try's.

| Quote airliebird,runninglate!="airliebird,runninglate!"For his attributes 14 was a poor try return. Especially in a team that was top for a large portion of yr. Old man dorn managed 20 odd
If you're a runner and try scorer but nothing else you need to be pretty good in that Dept
Connor would add a passing game..A kicking game..stronger in D and has an eye for the try line himself. All factors considered Shaul needs some form on board quickly imo'"
I agree with you and see Connor to full back sooner than later as Radford clearly wants to keep Connor happy and we are better using four forwards on the bench so Connors immediate playing time will be limited.
I am not a Connor fan as his lack of pace will always be his nemesis and what stops him becoming a great player just like Jamie Shaul will never be a great player because of his inability to create that link in attack and find the clinical pass.
In defence of Jamie i dont see Connor having a stronger defence as he seems to have worked a lot on this part of his game.
Maybe Radford should try Connor to full back whilst the grounds are wet and soft and use Jamie when the grounds start to firm and make better use of his pace.
Jordan Rankin would have been ideal in this team.

Rankin had the hands but his basic full back skills were poor.
Connor played at 6 today in a 60-30 reserve defeat at Saints, at that level he should be tearing it up, be interesting to see how he got on.

It's really wound me up. Why should we move our game if they've got the issue with it?

| Quote A unknown superstar="A unknown superstar"Don't quite agree with that regarding their pack. I'd say they have a better set of front rowers than us. But our pack as a whole I think we have the best. Especially the back rowers, no team comes close to Manu, Minichiello and Ellis.'"
McMeeken, Moors, Millington ?

Very good set of back rowers Cas have, but still not in par with Hulls imo

| Just watching the game back and Jon Wells pre match analysis on some changes Radford's made in off season, including changing up Minichiello's role to be less battering ram more ball handler - could also increase his longevity.

| Early days and the performance was solid enough. Long way to go before we have to hit the straps at the business end.
Build it up steady, picking up regular wins, using the full squad.
We're going fine.
