42170_1280565797.jpg Rule 1. I am always right.
Rule 2. If in any case I appear wrong, refer to rule 1.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42170.jpg |

| I think a lot of people have forgot about BJB coming back for next year. As far as I'm concerned he will be a new signing and with the experience he has had, he shouldn't be considered as a youngster as he will be looking for a regular start imo. A new pacey exciting back is just what we need and I think BJB can provide.

As a regular watcher of the very nearly unwatchable Quins BJB looked pretty classy with a gift for being in the right place at the right time, safe under the high ball (mostly!), good balance and pace with quite a sizeable amount of power and presence. He is however by no means the finished article. Often out of position and guilty of missing the odd one on one tackle but in general I pretty much agree and am looking forwards to seeing BJB play in a good side for a change.
I also wonder how Watkins will be used (I am praying he isn't another Ashley Gibson - promising start blighted by a knee reconstruction from which IMHO he never fully recovered - although he seem to be back on some sort of track at Salford) We'll be lucky to get more than a handful of really excellent games out of Keith next year...interesting season ahead. If we can have less of a season blighted by injuries we will be really competitive - a new coach will help

If he's good enough he's old enough. Get him the side. Right wing crying out for him.
FB: Smith
R.Wing: Hardacre
R.Centre: BJB
L.Centre: Watkins
L.Wing: Hall
Job's a good un.

| Hope this rumour is true. He is a 6 all the way. Get him playing at Stand off in the pre-season warm ups and who knows, he could be the cover for Mags we need.

BJB has more potential than Smith for centre IMO; leaving Smith for FB.
Why wait until 2012 ? Bring it on now.
Besides 2012 should see Chisholm on the other wing and Hall -if he continues to bulk up and lose that little edge to his pace - moved inside to centre or 2nd row alongside Delaney (Senior will have retired or moved to Salford)

BJB is a FB all the way, he is a natural. Watkins has still to prove himself for me, but he has time on his side. Chisholm won't make the grade. The lads got speed in abundance but thats about it. 2012 Will see:
1, BJB
2, Watkins
3, Delaney
4, Smith
5, Hall
6/7 Hardacre/McGuire
