Yeah I think it was later in the season. I remember before the season started, a lot of people saying he wasn't good enough, as he'd had a poor first year. He then started like a house on fire for 2009 and showed just why he was signed, pretty much changing most people's minds in a matter of weeks.

To be honest, I think Nero is probably our best three quarter at the moment, depending on how well Reardon can do. I can't see Nero missing out on his place except for injury or a big drop in form.

I agree with that. Nero also showed at the end of last season his quality in scoring tries and also assisting Semi with some. I'd like to see him having a full consistent season though for 2010

All in all Boxing day was a good run out all the new boys looked like they will add a lot of fire and pace and Scruts was buzzin' roll on February.

I gotta say, Scruton has been an absolutely superb signing. If he continues to play like he did last year, he could be playing for England very soon.

TBH, I'd prefer we had few players picked for the autum internationals. Mainly as I don't feel that the international game of RL is currently in a place that is competitive and the disruption to our off/pre-season could be done without

Yes and Saints and Leeds seem to cope pretty well too
