Has got some stick over the last few seasons. What to people think of him this year?

Seems to have cemented his place in the starting line up, he suits our strong fast agile approach to the team this year and is super fit. His defence has always been a strong point for him, and i think the lines he runs cutting back inside are suited to the second row, could be the new gilmour?!

I've always liked him......cant ever recall him playing badly either, always gives 100% and looks eager....i'd rather him playing for us than against us anyway.
His defence is awesome for such a young lad and i actually think he's offering more in attack playing in the pack than he did as a winger but thats possibly because he's getting more ball and more room to work in the middle of the field.

And cos of his age he's definitely still one for the future.

Could never understand why he got stick to be honest, always rated him. Real solid honest player and seems to be relishing his pack spot looking at those tackle stats!

Absolutely delighted for him. If everyone had have been fit at the start of the season I doubt that he would have been in the team. He has now virtually made the position his own and is one of the few forwards playing 80 minutes each game.

Well done Bruno.

I'm surprised to hear of Michael receiving any sort of stick?

on these boards or fan discussions?

Suppose it was never really criticism, certainly not to the extent Hodgson/Thorman, and certainly not from me i think he is mature physically and mentally well beyond his years. I think it was just because his attack wasn't quite up to the same standard as his incredible defence.

The stick has been aimed at Nathan Brown for moving Bruno from centre to second row. NB was right and the critics were wrong and bruno benefits.

When he moved up to 2nd row from the three quarters he got some criticism until he found his feet iirc.

Is there an echo in here? Beat me to it cripes!

been brilliant in the 2nd row this season producing impressive stats too

i can see wardle making the same move later on in his career

Agree you can never fault his effort. My only concern is that he can 'disappear' on occasions and I think he is better than that. The new role seems to be working well

You often find that forwards "disappear" though. That's because people often dont appreciate what they actually do-many are workhorses rather than creative players. He can "disappear" for me every week with that defensive effort!

Agree Jools !!

Can`t have gone missing too long with 51 tackles in that game (fantastic).

agree..someone said to me not see chan do much!! another workhorse
