Which is odd because he was as placid as a goldfish when he arrived at the club.

Like last night. I'm glad he decided to go after whoever it was in the dying minutes of the game otherwise he would have been yellow carded.

You lot are harsh on Maurie. He's a far, far better player now than in previous seasons. He's fitter now and able to work harder, his stints on the field are filled with effort in both attack and defense.



Sure he's not doing the two barn storming runs a game he used to that won over so many fans, but he's doing the graft. We won comfortably last night without Jammer and Cayless, that says it all about Maurie.

I don't think he's allowed to. I'm sure coaches and players got the measure of Maurie ages ago and know exactly how to go about limiting his effectiveness, regardless of how he may be playing at any given time.

Is this a positive comment from you? Surely not

and he doesnt do the haka now...

He's a working class lad from St Helens, England, why on earth would he want to do the Haka?

see Ryan Bailey for more details.



Maurie needs composure and knowing when to run harder than usual, take yesterday for example, fantastic break through 3 players, all he has to do is calm down and hand off the full back.



Walloped by the full back and loses the ball. Composure of 0.



I admit i liked Maurie when we first signed him but he is quickly becoming like Fozzard and having a style that defences will spot during the week watching game footage. He needs to take advice from Jammer, go straight sometimes but others look for the outside and the smaller blokes.

would u swoop him for crabtree

You mean swap?



I'm not sure.
