Quote: HuddsRL5 "Yeah think it was confirmed on the full 80 minutes podcast that Wood and Johnson were never watched by Stone or Woolford.
Think it will be different for Sam, from what I've read he's had a really bright start at Batley, I'd be disappointed if he didn't have a future with us... However, in saying that it does make you wonder given Woolfords comments when we resigned wardle,about us needing depth at back row / centre when we've sent Sam out.'"
Without sounding harsh I for one am glad he didn't. Mikey Wood has become a very important part of our pack and really grew into the 13 role as last season went on. Really pleased we signed him up.
Liam Johnson has potential and is a good line runner with an eye for a try.unfortunately was found wanting in defence at times, and under Kear thats a big no no. Defence can be worked on though and I am sure he will have a good year at Dewsbury.
I was at our game against Batley on Sunday and Wood had a good game. Got his hands dirty and through a lot of work in the centre both with and without the ball. With him being so tall his frame is quite sleight think he would need a bit more size on to play back row in SL
