No, no, no - he came on and all he did was sidestep and not pass the ball.
Don't tell anyone he's 3rd in assists despite playing in a relatively poor team, they won't believe you - he only plays for himself.

I thought we were talking about super league performances.
to answer your question, yes he played well in that friendly game.'"
Cas 22 wigan 22 (from Sportinglife)
Dixon again faltered with the conversion attempt but the Tigers struck again with 15 minutes remaining when Aspinwall seized on a clever kick from Chase.
Dixon converted to cut Wigan's lead to eight points and with seven minutes remaining the Tigers struck their fourth try, through Arundel again after more good work from Chase.
Dixon failed to convert and Chase's fine pass sent Mathers diving over in the left corner in the closing stages - only for Dixon to fail to convert from the touchline.
Hull 18 Castleford 20 (from Sportinglife)
Hull, who were unable to control stand-off Rangi Chase all night
Castleford 34 Catalans 24(from Sportinglife)
for Rangi Chase to send Craig Huby plunging in for a try.
Five minutes later, the Tigers went back in front with a clever solo effort by New Zealander Chase, who dummied his way through from 20 yards out for a try.
I'm assuming you don't watch much rugby that doesn't involve Wire.

| Fire enough bullets you'll hit the target.
Pity there isn't a 'taking the wrong option' stat, he'd head that

| Briers has been good for Wire but I don't think he'd be included in the Dream Team. I think it's a case of Wire improving and helping Briers play better rather than him raising his game and helping Wire. I think if you put a few other halfbacks in the Wire squad they'd be performing at a similar level to Briers.
Chase is definitely more of an individual but even his critics surely have to admit that he's done an awful lot for the Cas team and without him they'd be much worse off. He's pretty much the only seriously dangerous player in the side. No one really knows how he'd cope at one of the top clubs but I don't think it's right to dismiss him as a 'headless chicken'. He's involved in almost everything good that Cas do.
Scott Dureau would be the obvious choice and then I think possibly Brough, although his injury might work against him. If Brett Finch keeps up his good form then he might be in with a chance and then there's Lomax too.

i don't watch ANY rugby when im in Cuba on holiday (as stated above)... but other than that i watch it every week... so your assumption is wrong.
thanks for your concern though mr st wigan.

So when Wire were terrible (much of the last 10 years) did that make Briers any less of a player?

| Quote: Odemwingie "Warrington actually have the same amount of points in the table after 21 rounds last year. We have only 3 less despite being poor compared to last year. Our dropped points have been in draws. If we can be top of the league playing as we have, I can't wait to see how well we play when we are at our best.'"
It is impressive to be well not at your best and be top.
Looking forward to seeing Wire peak in the next few months.

I thought the Mods were trying to stop this kind of ridiculous baiting?

| What about the Exiles game? He tore apart England RL and bossed it in a good team. He is a class player.
