Cooper : Mon May 14, 2018 9:10 am  
I know its been touched on already this season, i know he got a worthwhile contract extension, but i have to give props to mike cooper for his stint yesterday in the first half, he was bloody brilliant standing up to the poop house toronto forwards, including sims after the first melee. Particularly mouthing off to sims as he was getting his rollicking from the ref.

Mike cooper, enforcer, who would have believed that?

Our two home-grown forwards, Cooper and Philbin, were comfortably the best in that first-half period and were the two who were running hard and straight while others started going lateral far too early
Everyone got to look good in the second half.

Thought Coops might do a better job as Captain than Hill, who gets wound up a little too easily these days.

Re: Cooper : Mon May 14, 2018 10:16 am  
Cooper is finally hitting the levels of quality and consistency he managed in the NRL - great to see and I'd agree he seems to be developing in to a very good pack leader.

The whole pack looks very good though to be fair, Philbin and Sita are proving game changers when they come on from the bench and Sita especially seems to be increasing his minutes without a notable let up in standards. Would like to see some more games for Crosby - his injury record concerns me a little - but whenever he has played he is more than worth his space. A bench of Crosby, Philbin, BMM & Sita looks tasty.

BMM seems to be running some better lines too since he got back from injury, Westwood has rolled back 3 years, Hughes looks a different player to 2017 or even 2016 and Livett looks dangerous every time he touches the ball.

The big challenges are yet to come obviously, and will be good to see how they match up against the Pies next week - looking forward to that one.

Re: Cooper : Mon May 14, 2018 10:30 am  
Lots of noise coming out of Wigan and St Helens saying that we have not really played anyone since we started our run of 10 games. This is true if you ignore the fact we have beaten last years Grand Finalists away from home. You can say the same of Wigan, lost to their two biggest rivals this year, and a Wire team that was going through a rough opening to the season.

We now have a pack to worry any team. Mike Cooper and Chris Hill have been immense, intensity does not drop from the replacement Props and you have a Big Beast of a Man running out on the right edge creating carnage.

Am I looking forward to Saturday, Hell Yeh!

Why?
If this season is successful and Hill is still with us?

Actually Hill has been much better this season, he hasn't got half as involved in debates with referees, he's done his job well and improved his discipline hugely this season.

Much easier being the Captain of a winning team.

True, but it should be recognised none the less. Hill irritated me hugely last season with his constant back chatting, he's back to his best and leading by example this season.
