Burgess played for the under 20's.

He did which shows he wasn't quite ready for the 1st team.

Or it shows that Ambler was ahead of him. And probably rightly so after the previous weeks performance.

Eh?

I think what it shows is that he was available for selection and coach McClennan chose not to select him from his original 19 man squad. Somewhat scuppering the claim that he was 'missing' when in fact he was not selected despite being available.

It's not unheard of for a player to go play for the u20's to gain some game time/match fitness when they are deemed not ready for a SL match.

It's also not unheard of for Burgess to be named in the 19 this season and then play for the under 20's instead.

True but he's been out a while and whilst he's not one of our A* players i'm not surprised he was chosen to play at u20 level before 1st team.

He's not been out as long as Burrow. Burrow was picked for the first team.

I agree with the Hodgson transfer, he will be 34/35 at the end of his Wire contract, he's had a few injuries this year and he's been nowhere near his MOS form.

Yet you claim Wire will be "going forward" next year.

Fitter and like i eluded to above one of our A* players.

Tony Soprano, in relation to you mentioning Brett Hodgson. Brett has spent more time on the physio table than he has training or playing on the pitch this season. I think the Giants could have, possibly, had the best that Brett had left, last year.

He could turn it around at Warrington, we will all have to see, although some would say he's moved on for more "extra" pay

And who could blame him, He's also gone to a team who have a better chance of winning something next year IMO.

Did Huddersfield offer him a new contract?

He didn't deserve MOS last year. Nor did Brown deserve coach of the year.

Are you sure, are you really sure he didnt.

All those stupid players who voted for him , i mean what do the professional players who see each other week in week out, what do they really know about who should be man of steel.

I am sure that in my opinion he didn't. A lot of players are really, really thick.

He had a big game in the cup semi. He had some awful games against us, an anonymous game in the final and what did he do in the playoffs? When it really mattered he did nowt.

That's not man of steel. Not in my book any how.
