| Re the hooking debate Mann/Monaghan
For me, you couldn't put a fag paper between them. Both absolute quality, and a pleasure to see them both in P&B.
The biggest crying shame in our recentish history, was Duane's leaving at the end of the 1992-93 season. Always dynamic for us, and ripped holes in defences, as well as having great distribution. Got into double figures for tries each season (iirc) he played for us. If only he had one more season with us, he's have guided us round the pitch, and have had the great Johnny Davies on the periphery, finding any gaps. That season we finished on level points with Wigan and Bradford, would have seen us champs, with Duane as hooker. Instead, who did we have in his role. Yes, that RL "colossus", John ****ing Thursfield, who was about as much use as Telly Savallas' comb, and scored as many tries, as Cliff Richard has had his leg over.
MonaghanM has been a class act for us. He'll take some replacing.
As a footnote. I still don't get the anti Monaghan tirades when he played in the halves, in the first 2 months of his Wire career.
We had a reasonable start to that season, with him playing there, and (again, iirc) he picked up a few MotMs, before it all went sour with Cullen.
Whilst he wasn't exactly Alfie Langer, he certainly wasn't Rocket Rodwell.

Tietzel, iirc, was a recommendation by Sir Les. Proof that legends can get it wrong. Don! T remember him being particularly lazy, just him being crap.
can we also include Mark Jones

I take it back, he was very trying.

I don't recall buying tablets from you.
Back to the video perhaps I'm wrong but it looked like Mike Wainwright because of the headgear.

Sir, with all due respect, between this and your thread advocating the signing of Richard Horne I regretfully have to inform you, that stand offs, aren't your specialist subject.
