Agreed that bridge impressed a lot of people. I think he's come back with a new spark for playing which i feel he slowly lost last season and his injury then didn't help. On wards and upwards for him hopefully.
If you look at Bridge's history it's been really mixed.
Talented youngster who forced his way into PC's side and even though he wasn't a flyer couldn't be left out of the side due to his goal kicking and try scoring.
Brief period at full back but not really his position
Half back didn't really suit him - seemed to hold onto the ball too much.
Went awol for a while.
Good 13 but was put in other spots due to versatility and we never saw the best of him there
Very good centre - and contrary to my (and many others) expectations, this is his best position. I really just couldn't see it, but was proved totally wrong. Reasonably fast, very good step, very good upper body strength.
Still looks a miserable sod and rarely smiles, and i think still carrying some skeletons, but welcome back Chris. Do what you do best.
Warrington were short of a right centre when Gleeson was kicked out. Paul Johnson would have been 1st choice but was injury prone. Grix could play either of the centres.
Chris Bridge fitted in very well for the next 2 seasons, 2011 being his best season.
Chris Bridge when on top of his game is a real nightmare for the opposition. I like many others on here think he's class. He's tough as old boots. When he gets knocked out he just comes around and gets back in to the line.
