Matty Russell : Sun Jun 10, 2012 6:27 pm  
Once again had a poor game for me. He's a little like Horne in the fact that when the ball gets to him in attack it just stops dead, he's inability to catch continues to show and we miss McKinnon big style IMO. He's good driving it forward and returning it but has too many basic flaws in his game to make it at Wigan IMO.

Think he will make a decent SL player but not at full back.

Probably right. He's certainly not a full back from what I've seen of him.

His running game is good enough to be 6 but his passing is really poor for a FT professional, if you watch him he really seems to struggle when passing.

I agree with all that.

He was my motm last week , Great enthusiasm , Good at taking it forward but lacking any confidence at taking a bomb . We're just back to square one at fullback.

Terrible under the high bomb,he will be targetted by every team but without an alternative we will just have to try and protect him a bit more

I'd let him go back and play Horne at 1 and Ellis/Whiting/Nicklas/Westerman at 6.

Re: Matty Russell : Sun Jun 10, 2012 7:16 pm  
I could be wrong here so apologies if i am but being a saints fan and being there last week against you boys there seemed to be no help for him as in no kick pressure and and no one around him when the kicks go up i watch other teams and the wingers centres always help out the full back which you boys never appear to do! Your experienced players without a doubt are currently not stepping up! i was at the magic weekend with your fans and to be honest the majority seem to be happy with matty what you have to realise is that he has virtually no SL experience which isnt his fault and As time goes by this season the more he plays the better he will get but your experience needs to help out your younger lads! look at us last year our experience helped out the youngsters! anyway this is just a blip im sure you will be back no doubt super league is competitive this year bar wigan!! :-(
