yeh hard to understand

obv hasnt impressed enough to get in the starting 17 , nows his chance at halifax

Sounds to me like hes been lazy in training and not done what is asked of him - sounded like Stone had intended on playing him initially...

Rick has always said he won't pick or keep players who won't buy into what he's doing, seems Adam hasn't been pulling his weight either then !.

Hard to understand wh if he's been given his chance he hasn't lept at it. Unless he was hoping to be picked up by someone that would play him first choice. At the stage he was selected everyone would have a settled first and possibly second choice hooker.

I'd imagine his nose has been put well out of joint that a younger less experienced player has been picked over him. Leeming has come on leaps and bounds in the last preseason and fully deserves his spot. Hinchcliffe prefers loose, stone prefers Hinchcliffe at loose- all suggests obrien hasn't done enough to show he should be at 9.

i like hinchcliffe at loose better still if he could pass to the correct team. saying that there was very little coming from the back row in attack last thursday we need someone to step up and run good lines or ferris off loads

shame we have lost symonds

massive loss

Yes I agree- any news on his injury?

out for a 'significant period of time' according to stone

O brien scored today. As did Sam wood who got two for Oldham. They were unlucky to lose to London by two points.

yes brealey hugh loss . he was missed .

symonds out for 8 weeks

Has that been confirmed by the club yet?

A couple of fax fans at my work have said that obrien was excellent for them. Certainly the best player in their team. Good to hear I suppose with him for what ever reason not being utilised from the get go

Strange really especially when he had a rep at bradford for been a good trainer. must be something else.
