Simpkin will ensure we forget about Harry very quickly. he's the real deal, just needs to hone his craft for the Magpies for the time being. his time will come.

Liddle is great for us, he’s super quick off the mark, fast service out of dummy half, throws a great dummy and not afraid to burrow over the goal line.
I rate him above Harry, who is more predictable and probably won’t be so dynamic now his traits have been on show.

Wow, really? If Liddle ever has a season like Harry did I'd be happy.
Liddle has put in two much improved performances since Round 1 and is an NRL standard hooker that I'm glad we've persevered with. No surprise when he went off on Sunday our side looked wobblier but I don't see the x-factor that Grant clearly has.

He commented on his strengths, tackling technique and the volume of work he did.
Make no mistake - Liddle is one of the main reasons we won on Sunday. After early incident with Doueihi he looked composed, fit, strong enough (and continually improving) + taking the right option 9/10 times. If you’ve never played any form of RL please stop spamming the forum with complaints about his service... that was only during the middle of Raiders game where I’ve never seen us look so rudderless before. Blame the hooker?
Jeez... looking to see a massive game from Talau/Luc and Brooks. Defence will do...
Cmon now... Liddle has been good but his service has been an issue every game now. Good to see him running more and more every game and he always puts his body in front of players, just needs to stick to a few more tackles. Good signs but improvements to be made just like our entire team lol

Watch the game again and look how many times 1st receiver had to catch the ball above their head or behind them.

When Mbye came on ? Yes, I saw him do it 3 times in one individual set when we were deadset up against it trying to finish off a game with direction and poise. I’ll take the consistency and effort of Liddle and Garner for the moment over the two fella’s out there on the same side who really did NEARLY cost us that game. No way Luc has outperformed last year and the only forward Lids has some history with to develop the chemistry is Twal, and to a lesser extent Musgrove.
Other than that it was Packer, Cheeks, Mikaele and co. ***Some of you really need to be implored to have the same faith that Madge has in our starting hooker for this year.***
There’s other more pressing issues that we are definitely not covered for and besides - If he really wasn’t good enough or Simpkin blows him out of the water (already)... then rest assured Old Faithful Robbie would’ve let us know in no uncertain terms!

I have faith in Liddle and would have him as our starting hooker. But I dont have some kind of crazy loyalty that makes me blind to the fact that his service has been uncharacteristically poor this year. He needs to improve it. It is effecting our attack.

***And you believe Simpkin alone is the solution***... I am inclined to agree with almost all of what you posted except that I am morn displaying some kind of crazy ‘loyalty’.

Youve played footy at a pretty high level and cant understand the difference a hooker makes to the attack? Thats surprising, but here we go.
Good flowing attack is dependent on the ball receiver and supporting players running at speed, in position, eyes forward, hands out in front. The pass to the receiver needs to be out in front, chest height so he is running onto it to give him maximum time and distance from the rushing defence.
As soon the receiver has to stop and catch it above his head, or stop and reach behind himself, he stops...all teh support players need to stop and kills all momentum and reduces the time before the defence gets to him.
