It was a very good start for him. We knew what we were getting with Jamie. He is a whole-hearted character who is fearless and inspirational.

Jamie played a lot at prop for Bradford last year, and as a big bloke like him becomes older that's a natural progression.

I knew Jamie Smith was a good player, but I didn't realise he was as good as that,

I knew they were good shooters, and that if we didn't get out on them, they were going to knock shots down.

I knew that (Beal) was going to get hot and start to hit their shots. They are way too good of a shooting team to have not had a run. I was just glad our kids were able to respond.

We're getting good results out of him when he is running the ball. He got off to a slow start. One of the problems that Jerome has had since he's been here is not being a very physical runner. He has shown at times, the last few weeks, where he's initiating the hit instead of the defense doing that.
