garbage.

2011 stats suggest (even struggling with injuries) he made more metres per carry than LMS, his yardage has never been a problem, he makes excellent ground.

His defence and discipline are very, very good indeed too.

You won't get a better prop for the price, I'm sure of that. He's only 24 too (couple of years younger than LMS?) so has improvement in him.

He's a fine player, will get better and is a local lad. A sure fire keeper.

Fortunately it's not his mind he's lost.

For me, I'd give Clough another contract as we don't know how much Perry will offer us this year, given his injury record last season

Id give Clough another contract because he warrants one.

When we had Bryn as well I always said Clough was the one to keep hold of, he goes under the radar a lot of the time but battles in defence, makes the hard yards and has age on his side too... as Don Brennan said he warrants a contract extension for these attributes alone
