Unfortunately he a bit like Marmite you either like him or hate him. He gives stupid penalties away in positions where the team can hurt us, (a bit like Ablett) but generally his defence is good. We wont have him for Thursday night whereas the right hand side of the defence has been like a sieve letting in tries, the side he plays on has generally performed better. We will see this Thursday where the Cas tries come from, I hope that if the left hand side turns out like the right hand side of our defence in the future we will give him a little more respect. Unfortunately comments on here go a lot deeper that the effort he puts in. Yes he was stupid last Saturday so you don't need to remind me.
Well last Thursday nights game v Cas was the best I have seen Ferres play - No penalties conceded from him too - he manages to stay in the Stand for the whole 80 minutes without getting sin-binned too.
Personally I think Furner needs to resist putting players like Ferres straight back in, regardless of their form. He has talked about needing more "experience", but I don't necessarily buy that - it has usually been our "experienced" players owning the brain farts and making critical errors, rather than the younger lads. We should be preventing pressure in the first place rather than always trying to fire fight.
I do think he'll make a contribution this year, but I don't think he should be at Leeds next year (although I suspect he might well be).
If feres is at leeds nxt year then god help us...although i agree, wouldnt be suprised. Dreadful player, not sure where some are seeing his solid defence, his defence is just as bad as his attack, which takes some doing.
