Just for the Comedy Name-

Wayne Kerr from Oldham

When I told one of my mates Ireland had a player in the world cup with that name (same player I know) he thought I was Joe Kerr.

Taxi!!

I don't think any of those apart from Mcnally would improve our team. Groom at Sheffield has potential to rip this league up, I think he's probably play better away fromhome on some of the wider pitches and not the narrow pitch at the don valley

Carlo nash is a Footballer isn't he? Think you mean Dylan nash.

Surprised nobody has mentioned Harris from Fev (unless i've missed it!), think he could be the perfect foil for blacky, somebody to organise whilst Blacky does his off the cuff stuff. Holroyd was class at it and Harris is a better player than Holroyd was.

nobody wants him lol
looks nothing like he used to be.

Do any fev fans rate him at this level or has he had his day?

Was never quite the same player when he came back from RU,

Was awsome, used to walk through defences, made it look so easy

Actually yes........

Iestyn started very slow and casual for us when we ripped you apart on Boxing Day.

He has very slowly

started to instill his authority... but then again as a slow, over weight, ex union reject

must be just ambling his way through matches, started to turn Fev into a well organised, strong outfit.

I get really peeeeeeed off reading about how crap he is from jealous, deluded , so called RL fans who.... lets face it, if you had the foresight to sign him, you would be as ecstatic as us Fev fans to have him in your team.

GET OVER IT.................... Iestyn is a Fev player and will cause you some grief next week.

yes he probably will cause us some players after all he is a former bulls and leeds player but you know who will cause you problems next thursday where should i start in the list here we go:

penky
gleeson
black
govin
beswick
miles greenwood
lee patterson
shad royston
rob worrincy

yep this is just some of the players we have in our squad that can cause you problems.

Have a word in his ear mate and tell him our forwards will be running at him most of the night, it's a small pitch to try and hide on.

We'll soon see about that

I am pretty sure Iestyn will be relishing that. I haven't seen him "hide" from any tackling this season at all. And Whitehaven, Leigh, Gateshead, Sheffield all have big forwards who tried to target him.

Just watch out for:

Hardman
A. Kain
Tonks
Dickens
Field
Haughey
and new signing ... Ian Bell

There is one thing guaranteed.......... Thursday night will be a cracker.

Nah.

i think will be a cracker too......

All players have weaknesses but for me a number of reasons why I do not rate Harris.

1 ) He sometimes is too slow both in mind and pacewise
2 ) Struggles to defend
3 ) Drifts in and out of games and sometimes never there!
4 ) He is old and will struggle in the warm weather
5 ) Overrated for me. Good player certainly at this level but not the best.
6 ) Doesnt like it when its physical

However he has experience and can guide a team around. He has a good kicking game and is a good influence on younger players. Fevs problem maybe that if he gets injured they have no attack. Whilst for Fax for example they have a number of options and can score from anywhere. fev have a good team but the question just like Barrow is IF they have a few injuries to Harris and a couple of others if they have good quality to replace them. I would not want him at Fax to be honest and good on Fev for getting him as its good to see Fev and others have some good quality Championship players as well.

Harris might be slow with his pace, but he's certainly not slow with his rugby brain, thats a ridiculous shout. I bet his mind works a second or so faster than most players in this league, a bit like gleeson. If anything this might make him look stupid as other players aren't aware of what he's going to do.

I'm now thinking it could be a Fax v Fev/Barrow final. Any takers?

I was starting to think you were knowledgeable until that point

Robs a quality player, he'll make yards allday long and do some fantastic stuff, unfortunately he's got some flaws in his game and is pretty much guaranteed to lose the ball at leats once a game!

lot of same was said about holroyd.........

As i've said previously Harris is a better player than holroyd.

i like harris because bradford wasted loads of resources on him

He may have a good rugby brain but his hands are clumsy sometimes. At Bradford on TV I saw a number of times he would get in the way of an attack where there was something on. He was on the verge of being a really good player at Leeds then Union ruined him and he has never been the same. He was OK at bradford but nothing really special who could break the line and he always gave out that long ball that was either a hospital pass or intercepted.
He always looked to heavy and overwight. Had he been maybe fitter and faster he would of been a real cracker of a player. Reads the game well with his kicking game and does have a rugby brain but sadly lacks the pace and quality of passing to breakdown a real good defence.

He cant catch, does not read the game well enough to be in the right place all of the time and he goes to jelly under pressure.

He is an athlete, nothing more if you ask me. He takes some stopping because of his sheer speed and power but he aint no great shakes. Jon Goddard is much more of an all round threat in the outside backs.

Goddard and Worrincy are totally different players though, Goddard is unlikely to make the breaks worrincy makes but he won't make the mistakes either. Lookin forward to getting him back playing, it'll be like having a new player on board.

Hands are clumsy sometimes? Show me a player who never makes mistakes. We could talk about Harris allday but i'd put money on it that Matt Calland would put him in our team given half a chance.
