He wasn't a "Reserve Grader" he played around 40 times for Melbourne Storm in three years no mean feat when you think of the competition, then 26 times for the Brisbane Broncos in a two season stint. Very much a 1st Teamer.

Ow yeah and Reserve graders don't usually play in NRL Grand Finals like Brodie Croft did partnering Cameron Munster against Cooper Cronk and Luke Keary.

He was seen very much as a reserve grader for the future, thus he was not picked up by any NRL clubs, thus came to SL.

[iCroft was described by the media at the time as the next Cooper Cronk and was labelled a "Cooper Cronk clone"[/i

Shite that Cronk fella . BTW the queue for his services, is getting longer by the day.

FC TILL I DIE! [quote="Neil HFC"]Hull Kingston Rovers - Pride of Hull FC's B Team.[/quote] Hull City Kings of Yorkshire 1. Hull City 2. Middlesbrough 3. Barnsley 4. Doncaster 5. Leeds Utd 6. Sheff Wednesday 7. Sheff Utd 8. Huddersfield:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4415.jpg



Quote: Kelvin's Ferret "It's the only time I've seen them in the flesh, I seem to remember seeing them on Premier Sports or Our League, don't remember which.

Yesterday was a bit like watching a SL team play a part-time team in CC, they don't have to be especially good, they just need to use their superior conditioning and stronger squad to roll over the opponent. The problem I see with Leigh is a lack of raw pace and too much dependence on the sort of overseas players that would be squad fillers in the lower half of SL. The tempo that will roll over part-time teams at Championship level is still some way off the bottom half of SL.'"

Squad fillers what drugs you on icon_lol.gif

Players like Blake ferguson nene Mcdonald inu would pretty much walk in every super league team especially the first 2

Leigh have the strongest team that's got promoted for many years ( if they do )

What an embarrassment Sam Tomkins was tonight, chucking himself on the floor like a sack of spuds, we don't want to see that in the game do we Clarkey?!His tantrums made the win all the more sweet. What a coach Rohan Smith is incredible turnaround , perfect game plan tonight.
