Let's just dismiss everything that is in past then. I'd have thought it's a good idea to look at young players from last year to present day as it shows if they are making progress.

Sounds very much like your reluctant to give Brown any credit. He should have done what Royce did to Gaskell and just kept playing him and totally ruined him.

Now you've gone and done it!!!

Lock it quick

Yesterday I watched a video of the 2011 Championship Semi-final when we beat Wigan at the Stobart Stadium Widnes and Gaskell had a great game and looked all the world like a future international.

The problem is when using a kyung lad in the halves as first choice avd he is partnering another young lad and thinks don't go to plan it then puts to much pressure on them and they need taking out before they get totally shot of all confidence.

If he had been taken out at the time his form was slipping and explained that he's not been dropped etc but that didn't happen.

Same thing happened at hull FC with Cooke and Horne and everyone said they be the hull halves for 10 years.
