Read again. Or the Half's! I didn't see the day Sykes would be dropped but he was. Obviously would prefer Sammut at half back and not fullback thought Sykes was indispensable.

He was particularly poor last week so maybe dropped. Could be his last season?

Webster always said that he went with Sykes and Smith in the halves as it was the tried and tested combination. He did caveat that by adding that if any of them weren't up to scratch they would make way and Sammut would come in. Which is what happened. Sykes was atrocious last week, and water boy this. Well played Mr Webster.

I like a coach who drops players who he believes aren't performing. Sammut has the shirt now and to hang on to it knows he has to perform week in week out. Same goes for others too and that's how it should be, a ready made replacement to slot into positions they're familiar with not square pegs in round holes. Play well, you're in next week guys. Keep it up Trinity am loving this!

Sykes has got another year in him IMHO..... one game doesn't make or break a player. He's played a part in the wins we've had this season especially Widnes away!

He did have a poor game but most Half backs won't look good when the pack was mullered like it was against Catalan. Competition for places is good and he'll hopefully come back stronger.

According to Dave nosey Parker Sykes has not been offered a new contact for next season!

Sykes is our highest on missed tackles list.

But that usually means he's making a lot. That will be missed at half back.

Re: Sammut : Tue Jul 29, 2014 7:10 am  

I personally don't rate Sykes that highly and a bit like Richie Moore, I am indifferent as to whether he stays another year or not.

Can hit hard in defence but makes poor decisions near our own line in defence and is only a makeshift half for me.
