No, his goldfish gob mate Millward tried to make him into something he ISN'T. As soon as Noble arrived he relegated Higham to bench hooker, behind Millard and McIlorum.

Then, like Saints we got rid.

Now we have a good starting hooker in Riddell and we start scoring tries again.

I never rated Higham at Wigan so it's not an anti Wire thing.

However, as this thread is about Monaghan, he is a player that I have always rated (as a hooker) and said when you signed him that was by far his best position.

Without monaghan im alot less confident of coming away with a win now, however hopefully higham can step up and have a top game and get make good metres from the ruck. Pressure will be on briers more now aswell as monaghan has done a good job of taking the control of the game at times along with myler. Come on the wire!

i think we are currently top of the league for tries scored?

I'm sure we can take it that he won't play or Guardian wouldn't have stuck this on their site. Big responsibility for Briersy and whoever partners him in the middle to move Leeds around and find some gaps. Was confident without Myler but less so without Monas as well. Makes it even more important that our forwards give theirs nothing. If we can defend the middle of the park well it will make it really hard for them to play off scraps with little go forward. If we get it right we can still come away with the points. ISWT.

Probably a typo because of

The answer to your question is that the first part was correct. He is!

Monaghan is definitely not playing.

The valve is now getting very excited, he's creaming himself.
