My point was, you can't expect a thread to stay on the entire topic, otherwise most would only be a page or two long. Threads drift and, to be fair to Paul, he was replying to your views on the LF position.

I'm not too fussed, really. Ideally, we'd have Brett Stewart there with Hayne as his back up, but that's fantasy stuff. I think we have a solid backline, Mathers is a solid player, sure, he could be better, but he's a marked improvement on Reardon IMO.

Yea ill give you that just not sure he's up there with Brent Webb, Clint Creenshields and Brett Hodgson in what i think is a vital role within the team.

To be honest, it seems that every position on the field is becoming a key position, even the interchange players are considered 'key' in changing a game. As nice as it would be to have the league's top players in every position, sometimes you have to accept a lesser player for the strength of the rest of the team. Mathers isn't poor by any means, I'm happy with him, we could improve but we could be doing much worse. We have a committed player who the coach likes a lot, that'll do me.

Its you who changed the subject to another thread.

The post you quote me in was my first post on this thread. HTH.

Im sure Bradford at home last season he played prop, could be wrong.

Ben Harrison is not a prop, he is a loose forward. FACT.

Exactly.

Mathers is 'value for money' isn't he. You want an explosive fullback who can do special things, pay the cash, but it'll take a serious chunk of your cap. You want a bloke who'll give you 100% every day that he wakes up, and do the best he can, you get Mathers.

Reardon wasn't value for money for us. Now, on a small deal, as a winger for Bradford, I actually think he could be a decent under the radar little signing, it's all relative.

I didn't say he was but he has played it

Sorry i was meant to be quoting LW's posts.

Jesus it's like 1984 on here these days.
