Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.

Regardless of this news that is in reality no news we have managed to lose 2 very aggressive players in Bateman and Partington.

Byrne has a bit of mongrel in him, and Ellis has shown signs, but we need some of the other lads particularly Havard and KPP to increase their on field persona in that department significantly as those 2 in particular let the KR pack roll them over and tickle their tummies on Saturday.

So let me get this right - the "mongrels" Byrne and Ellis who managed 8 carries and 51m between them are what Havard (10 & 61m on his own) should be aiming for? I've zero doubt (as you've already said it) that you think Singleton is some kind of master prop too. That's despite him making a whopping 35m.

No doubt this would be one of those "gospel" truths that people latch onto. Reminds me of the old "Lockers isn't a captain" argument because he didn't shout at players.

Havard is fine and will be a great player.

Re: Bateman leaving confirmed : Mon Feb 20, 2023 3:35 pm  
I think the world of Havard and even as is, he’s our best prop but I do think he lacks natural aggression and that could mean he stays as a good Superleague prop, when IMO he should go on to be an international and one of the best props in the world.

I don’t think Jonh is bagging him as such but simply pointing out guys like him and KPP lack that natural mongrel that guys like Bateman and Partington have. Maybe the reason for that is obvious, in that the latter 2 need to have that due to a lack of size. Combine the size and natural ability of Havard, with the attitude and aggression of Partington and you have a World Class player. If Havard can just find a bit of an edge he can go wherever he wants to in his career.
