Yeh and I did not pick it. Had I done the team selected would have been a lot different in a variety of positions. Wonder who one of the props would have been for example ?

| Quote: frankb "Nicky Stanton was much maligned in my view. He was fast' rarely missed a tackle' and' when did he ever get a pass ? Oh hang on I was at York to watch us in the NRC and surprisingly with the fullback to beat his centre passed to his ankles. We have re-signed him and I do not mean the quick one or the fullback.'"
Your right Frank - we have signed the year on year proven points machine.
Unfortunately we are not in a position to sign world class , not a bad option to go for the ones that guarantee you 20 odd tries a season and 300 points - IMO of course

| I think your point has validity but he does cause us to concede lots of tries too. Anyways you will all be pleased to know my opinions have no impact on who is signed or plays.

| Tipster ste you need to watch the game again it was the who went down the wing and he pushed stanton off the reason fev had so much room outwide and other teams mick goes to far infeild so the winger as to come inside aswell ie look at the play off game v sheffeild when madan was outside off mick. mick went off wondering infeild madan came inside sheffeild throw a long ball out to there winger with lots of room madan cant make the ground to stop him scoreing all season mick was doing that who gits all the crap on here the WINGER.

| We will agree to disagree not sure if it was the winger or centre who left him for dead, I just know he wont be missed.
As for who would I rather have, I will go with the coach, one player was offered a contract one wasnt!

This seems to be a product of our defensive 'system'. How many times did we see the opposition swiftly move the ball wide and expose us? I felt sorry for Steve Maden at times, when he was left with three men to mark. However, wasn't Matty Blythe Maden's centre, most of the time?

Nearly as bad as you blaming mick for stantons errors at fev ( it was the centre smearton who left nicky for dead ) when i belive mick didnt even play in the game, he was dropped to 18th man and we played magraff in the centre ( now there was a bad centre ) instead.

Effectively got a 20 metre start and I win my bet you must be Stanton or a relation.

The same Stanton who made Darren Anderton look like a fine physical specimen who never got injured. How many games did he go off injured leaving us with limited options off the bench?

| I could run rings around any SL winger if he is running backwards and I am running forwards and I'm nearly 50.

you have a good player there'"
Just to resurrect this one Ian, in the Journal, says he has signed Thornley as a prop.
