Quote: middleman "absolute carp ,
Sorry, Hickey aside from being matey with his ex Bulldog pals Patten & Holdsworth is an embrarrassment and not fit to clean Adamson's boots .
All Adamson needs is to be taught better angles to run ( ie coaching ) , he has a great hand-off and good speed for a backrower.
he is labelled a defender because since his whole career at Salford has been defending in a poor side'"
Bang on mate. Couldnt echo your point any better. Mr Barker or Mr Barkers associate as he may be is speculating on rumour. Hickey is an unfit NL1 prop at best. As you put it , unfit to clean Lukes boots. If that's the way Salford go it will confirm there barking mad. Adamson has a great hand off. Good pace. Hardest worker. Our top tackler every year. And hasn't been coached in his attack properly since Karl Harrison.
On MP not favouring Adamson. This seems to be a reoccurring pattern. Every time a new coach comes in Lukes dropped. McRae - Veivers etc. Then when they realise ihs defence is required in a team that spends allot of time defending he's Picked again. Now if MP has acted in the same mannor then he will see how important Adamson when he's seen him a bit more. Then I hope he can man manage him into a dynamic attacker as well as a dynamic defender. A big loss if he were to go.
