Danny Brough has had some shocking haircuts. Luke Gale was best before his transplant. I no longer use it as a guide to ability.

don't say that


he loves his hair


just act like you didn't notice

Think ive said it before but il repeat clever rugby player , lacks pace and soft folk wondering why he hasnt been signed by super league there it is just a word for vastman if your soft you wont go far at ever level

Nice to see you back on here Vasty - been a bit dull while you were away!

If we have signed Ryan, Reynolds is the type of player that could potentially do a job for us as back up. We haven't any Quota places so we're looking generally at back up halves at other SL teams for the role or Championship clubs, so it's slim pickings tbh.

I think it's been mentioned but Finn did many a season down there and was considered far too slow as well as poor defensively etc by many to make it but turned into a quality half till age caught up. So many players get plucked from the level below and they suddenly turn into quality SL players, we've done it many times over the years, currently, Cas have bought quite a few from that league and turned them into very good players in that professional environment.

Ben is another I was sad to see leave Cas. Real quality player who would bene
fit from a long spell with a team who are secure in super league.

Having read your similar guff about previous signings forgive me if I don’t take your opinion on him to seriously - you are the guy who said Johnstone had no Rugby brain.

Bit worried that he might be better than your lad Rocky? Or at least cheaper

its funny you say that as I always thought of miller being a but reluctant to get involved but last night he proved a point

give the lad a chance

Think you make things up to look good vasty, repreduce from a thread when i said the bit about johnstone id like to see it and if i did im gonna have to cut down on whiskey

I've always thought the opposite about Miller - he tackles well above his weight and never shirks the tough stuff; I've actually thought in the past, given his position, that I wish he'd look after himself a bit more!

My thoughts too.

Miller attacks the ball as much as anything, dunno the stats but he seemed to be our top ball/bone rattler over the last few seasons, maybe not this one but it seemed like he'd bang at least one loose every game.
Definitely doesn't know that he's made of nowt.

Funny you should say that because he's 6' and 13 and a half stone according to his stats. My guess is he's probably that weight but maybe a bit shorter, say 5'10''. Now that is two inches taller than Jonny Thompson and probably only a stone lighter than in his pomp but you wouldn't say he was made of nowt.

I'm not having a pop I'm just pointing out how perceptions have changed especially with the appearance of monsters like Fifita, Pauli Pauli and England to mention just three.

In the ordinary world Miller is a fairly big bloke and certainly no willow the wisp - which mean that imho he hits harder than we think, so much so that all but the very biggest players know all about it when he tackles them.

I always thought Billy Conway was tiny.......till I met him

I'm on about the biff side of it
