| I'd only have Wild back, although Brown did have a good game today.

agreed. Once they were dumped by Wigan it was the wake up call these guys needed. Todays result is more to do with the coach Brown. He is fantastic.

you lost all credibility when you said Hodgson!!

It is because of this dullness that they are acheving so much success...A similar thing appears to be happening with my side, Warrington....For years we had Paul Cullen attempting to turn us into the Kevin Keegan-era Newcastle Utd of Super League...A 'You score 40, we'll score 41' mentality...Eventually, this naiveity got found and Cullen got sent on his way to his rightful home (The National League).
Now we have finally found a coach who realises the importance of discipline and structure, and with it results have improved, even if entertainment is sometimes lacking on what we were used to.
Just remember back to your successful sides of the late 80's, early 90's and you will realise that, yes you did have some great individuals, but importantly they played to a well thought out plan from some great coches of that era.

A good post until your last statement about a 'great style of play'.
They are actually quite dull to watch....very structured, very disciplined, little flair....(saying that the first try of the second half was a fantastic pre-set move...  ).

I thought all of Hudds tries were great especially the first, it was perfection and the last one was a moment of brilliance from Hodgson and some poor defense from Graham.

Your right in saying it's not the greatest to watch in entertainment value, however I stand by my statement "it's a great style of play to win games" because it is, there in 3rd place and have recently been racking up some big scores, plus that style of play completely nullified saints. Yes it may not be highly riveting stuff to watch, but god it's effective.

| Quote ="Rogues Gallery"I've said it for so long, Kevin Brown should have been kept. He was hounded out of Wigan by "keyboard d*c*h*ads"
Had Brian Noble been at Wigan Brown would have been introduced slowly into the first team and would have been an ideal partner now for Sam.
Brown would walk away from Huddersfoeld now if he had the chance to come back to Wigan.'"
Hmm, good performance today but still not convinced by Brown. Still not even mentioned as a possibility for the English test side.
Having said that, felt very pleased today for all the ex Wigan boys and will be cheering them on in the final.

| Sometimes young players need to be persevered with, too often they are cast aside before they mature as players resulting in clubs looking for the quick fix from overseas.
Lessons need to be learn't.
