I don't normally criticise our players, but I do have to raise the problem of Chris Hill. Time and time again he carries the ball much too quickly into the opposition line, twists, to free the ball, and finds no supporting runner. Hardly surprising though is it ? He needs to be far more composed and slow his runs down, it's no use outrunning his team mates like that. I did have great hopes for the lad when he first joined us but now I am starting to have second thoughts.

I know you are laughing at me Morley, but go to SL Stats and have a look at the top metre makers. Chris Hill is number 8 ! !
Now if he had passed the ball beforehand, he wouldn't have been so high up would he ?.

Point proved I think.

I hate the fact he isn't over 30, don't Wire realise we are the mighty dads army, how the hell do we keep up reputations when we play youngsters, not only that but youngsters who are showing up the older players, they have no respect for their elders and frankly it's a disgrace, ship him off back to Leigh then resign him in 8 years.
Cocky little b'stards, i blame the parents.

He could end up like Rowland Phillips. He must learn not to pass the ball in his own half.

All props are not the same they have different qualities. He makes yards after the impact which for me is a massive plus as this is when the off load is most danerous and create try's. How can he be blamed for going to fast, slow down and let the opposition tackle you before the gain line and then if you off load and no one is there at least the opposition are closer to the try line ??????

Of course he needs to slow down, who does he think he is, Richie Myler ?

It's the same every time, a quick shuffle of his feet or change in direction, and off he goes at a hundred miles an hour breaking tackles and running a good 10-20 metres. How are our slower forwards supposed to keep up or get in a position for an offload ?

You see the problem with these young lads is that they all wan't to be a half back. It wasn't like this when I started watching back in 1947. Props were slow, ponderous, 20 stone trolls who enjoyed thumping the opposition as much as playing rugby.

We just seem to have lost the magic from the game nowadays. All these props have been watching too much 'Billy Elliot'.

Not in the same class as Dave King and Craig Teitzel.

Dave King a very talented Comedian ,you dont hear about him now , was Teitzel a Comedian or a Singer ?

He has been very quiet for a while now, mind you he is dead.

Teitzel had a year with us in the early 90's ?

which year did Teitzel have with us ... ?

I bet we was proper rubbish that year?
I bet his heritage number is sandwiched right between two proper crap players n all...........

Very good 9/10. They were probably the best two welshmen that we have had on the books. However, my favourite is still number 626. He wasn't with us long, but I have fond memories.

Dave King was actually quite highly rated when he signed for us (from Huddersfield I think), he had something of a reputation for finding his way to the try line.

Turned out the only thing he knew his way to was the front of the queue at Greggs.

You are such a tease Winslade; trying to reel them all in!!!!!!!!
