good luck to smurph if he goes. i cant help thinking that he will be another one that the club has failed to get the best out of.

for me, if kear had given him the number 1 shirt and stuck with him we could have had a great localy produced fullback who would have been something in the mould of briscoe or wellens.

instead we have messed him around and turned him into nothing more than a utility player, in a similar way we did with scott grix.

hopefully his career can now blossom, as he is a great kid with a load of talent.

just a matter of time

Fine, I really don't know what the problem is.

Can't remember Murphy ever not playing when fit so I don't know how Kear could have "stuck with him" any more than he did! Scott Grix will always be an average utility player regardless of who's shirt he's got on his back.
Whether a move to Shudds will give Murphy anything more than a couple of seasons of higher pay and a signing on fee, who knows? Greg McNally and Josh Griffin didn't exactly get much else. Maybe all three are satisfied with that?

mcnally and griffin were not established superleague players when they went to hudds were they?

grix has developed into a good fullback, similarly atkins has become a good centre under some good coaching.

Smurph won't be with us I don't think. Life goes on

maybe not but if we dont get good money or players he won't be leaving

Does he get to keep the car if he stays?

Took the word's right out of my mouth!

did he get it from kens motors

Yes

dodgey salesman i think must be a ringer
