It looks to me as if Currie is wary of getting injured again. He has some way to go before he gets back to the standard he showed before his injury.

Thought that aswell, before the injury I don’t see Kopczak catching him.

When he gets the ball in any space I'm really worried so I'm sure he'll feel the same. I think it will be a long time before he forgets those injuries.

It wasn’t a dig at King. He generally went well and is improving each week.

It’s just that Clark, Brown and Ratchford had a much bigger influence on the game and I’m confused how the selections are made... I can only imagine that for Sky to sort the vote system they have to have the nominations done by the 20th minute so they can get the graphics and stuff sorted. Pretty poor.

I agree with you on the selection process but it's pretty obvious why he was chosen even if there were possibly stronger arguments for other players to have been selected. He wasn't selected as MOM so it was just a bit of recognition for his inputs, nothing wrong with that.

Who actually makes the choices,apologies if I’ve missed it.

Well you can't argue with 3 wins out of three and the potential collective fatigue so I will take that. What I am still a be frustrated about is our lack of options in attack. The number of time Roberts ran across our line and pretty much not one runner to aim at. People receiving the ball standing still. Contrast that to the Wigan game when there was movement all over the place. Understand the need for solid defence and we seem to have pretty much cracked that now but can we please have a bit more in attack for more of the game

Apparently, it's a SKY-selected expert. They said yesterday it was an ex-player.

Hughes got though some tackling.
Unsung.

He did, and he's been passing the ball too in the last few games. Looks a different player to last season but I suppose you could say that about almost the whole squad. The improvements in Lineham, Hughes, Cooper and others is fantastic.

Yes....but with Hughes he was at the firing end of so much online attack.
Is the subdued reaction of Hughes form indicate some posters are shying behind obscurity waiting to pounce on his first mistake or echos of how well he is doing?
Either of which he is unsung.

I think a lot of the frustration with Hughes last year was similar to Russell, in that they both seemed undroppable by the previous regime.

However, that’s all in the past and as someone who criticised Hughes last year, I will happily admit he’s been fantastic this year and deserves his place. He fits in well with Price’s structured style of play, running some great lines and also showing off his passing skills on the odd occasion.
