Quote: knockersbumpMKII "Did you even watch him in the games he played this year, he was plenty good enough as a back up hooker and was getting some praise even on here. JC was cheap and could spell Houghton but clearly you think flogging DH all season was the way to go (& the detrimental effect it has on him and the team!) as opposed to using JC whom had proven he was okay in the role. If you think DW is going to be a better option you need to give your head a bang.'"
Yes I did and he was adequate but not super league class and not what we needed. Think the fact he never got signed by another super league club confirms what I thought. Believe me I want every academy lad who breaks through to make it all the way ,sadly a lot don't. He is one of them.
You say he was cheap. I say for us to be a top four side we need better quality and a good utility player who can not only spell Danny but stay on and be used spell other players as well.
I meant Washbrook? to mean maybe that is why they've signed him. Did it for Wakefield. AN Other? someone else possibly in the future.
I don't think Washbrook is the answer and I believe he is a stop gap until the right kind of player comes along.
As regards Danny it shows how hard he works for the team and may he continue to but by being spelled from the bench with a quality player but not another quality hooker.
How many other teams have a quality hooker on the bench.?
As regards giving my head a bang I have been doing for the last few seasons watching the same stupid mistakes being made by the same players. I believe Lee is at last bringing in some quality to improve that situation.
Don't be so quick to jump on people. I have my opinion you have yours. They are different. Get over it and accept that's how it is.
63 years a supporter I've seen it all believe me.
One thing we have in common is that we are passionate about our team and only want it to be the best.
