Quote: LF13 "IIRC Grix was a make-do and never intended to play there long term. We were after Patten as Bodgey's replacement, but he didn't want to come. Hence Eden was signed in the close season.'"
yes we were in for patten like you say but he opted for salford, been a good player for them too.
lets get it right though, we signed murphy for the full back role for this season, he didnt play early on as he was out injured...therefore eden got his chance and took it. when we signed eden no one really expected to see him play much, i remember alot of people moaning whos this eden lad etc.... he came to us as a winger and nathan brown didnt really know which was his best position
