Players who either could have or should have done better.

Could have

Chris Melling.
Outstanding prospect, great kicker, good pace, an organiser and talker from the fullback position. Could have been England fullback. Sadly, two serious knee injuries knocked his confidence and caused him to lose his pace. A real sad loss.

Nigel Wright
A really talented stand off whose career was again blighted by injuries, and never fulfilled his true potential.

Should have

Simon Haughton
One of the most devastating running back row forwards in the modern game. GB International, who should have been a top performer. IMO he started believing his own "golden boy" publicity and gave up on the hard work.

Chris Ashton
Great potential, loads of pace, but an awful attitude on and off the pitch.
However, he is young enough to sort himself out so there may be hope, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Hock as a should have, although he still might. fair to say he hasn't done himself favours as going down as a great of the game.

All the potential in the world and might of blown it. God I hope not though.

Simon haughton has to be there as the greatest waste sadly. That boy was awsome.

Simon Haughton was a fantastic waste

Agree about Melling as well, would have been great without the injuries

Danny Sculthorpe - Could have been a really great prop if his head had been screwed on right.

Ste Breheny - if only he was any good.

Gary Henley- Smith was quite quick for a winger

Harry Batt - Classy loose forward who lost his way due to drink, pies and hanging around bus shelters looking like a giant frog.

Should have

Has to be Luke Robinson. His early success (the hatrick at St Helens) went straight to his head and it set his career back at least five years, if not more. Ability yes but his mental strength is weak. Still proves it by dummy spitting at every decision that goes against him.

Mathers & Higham.

Haughton was a big should have, the guy had it all yet for whatever reasons Rugby just wasn't for him.

I think it's in Rads book where he describes Simon as someone who happened to find that he was very good at playing Rugby League yet had no real passion for the game and that was probably his downfall.

Could have = Kevin Brown. Broken by the coach. I would have him back at wigan, but given the way the CC works, in place of who?, I'm not to sure?

Anyone got the pic of Haughton and Radlinski in their leather jackets?

Anyone know what Simon Haughton is up to nowadays

last i heard he was playing for Oldham.......but that was 5 yrs ago.
