| Quote mapleyther="mapleyther"We all know quality half-backs are hard to find...we also know that you can still lead a team round the park well at a good age...look at Cooke at Doncaster, and Tommy Martyn at Leigh for goodness sake. The ONLY key factor for me is desire. We will know if he has it when he gets here.
So, for me, I give PR and DB the benefit of the doubt...could be a van Gaal moment!'"
Couldn't have said it better myself

Might have helped if our coach at the time would have played him in his preferred position, instead of playing him at hooker because he didn't like PR....'"
And then bringing in another hooker ( Robbie Mears ) but assuring us he would be played as a half back , no wonder he no longer is working in RL, complete bell end

Im sure Ferris only played 3 games for us , which were Huddersfield (h) Warrington (a) and he got hurt in the Salford (h) game , I also think it was a leg injury , he never played again , I could be wrong though  .Hardley showing signs of a class player .
As for Dazzler ?He was never on my Christmas Card list , though I wasn't on his either , I remember him say "Rob Burrow , will never be big enough to make it in Rugby ", Dazzler knew  .

It wasnt big enough as I recall, he said he wasnt good enough, this was just after Tommy had single handedly almost put Sheffield out of the Challenge Cup at Hilton Park playing for Miners
We wanted Ian Watson, he insisted on Robbie Mears
So Ben Jeffries eh?

| This reminds me of a similar thread over on the wire board when we signed Asotasi last year. "He was great for Souths in 2007...in Smith we trust" etc. I hope that is where the similarities end!
