Ah Van is making far too many errors and doesnt deserve a place in the 17, he is slightly better on the wing, but not much. Wouldnt be bothered at all if he wasnt retained.

have we got another descent goal kicker though? im not impressed with anyone else goal kicking

Ah van needs slapping more like, he is so unfit and lacks passion to play for the club. Kicking (be it pee poor) is keeping him in the side.

No player should be kept in the side for there kicking.

Yeah he does. Give Crookes a run out in the centre.

He looks lazy and unfit, his tackling technique is shocking. He can not even be named in the same breath as Big Les, even though he wasnt the best at first. I'd give Finigan a run out, or even have Sykes at centre over Ah Van.

How Royston is not getting in the team over Ah Van is a complete joke.

He is pretty average unfortunately. I can't help but worry than we've given him a new contract too..

I hope his recent falling away of performance levels is as a result of being told he[i isn't[/i getting a new deal.

That said, Platt was even worse today IMO

Take it you didn't see finnigan on Thursday then?

No, but he cant be any worse than Ah Van.

Neither of our centres were good enough today. Couldn't tackle. The Dragons ran through for fun.
