We do. We use it to cover injuries, which is exactly how Turner came to be playing against Saints.

Quote: voodooroo "and his inclusion in that match ....did he justify it in your opinion ????'"


I didn't see it. I saw his try on the highlights and he took it exceptionally well. More generally, I'd agree with carl spackler's assessment of him - I don't think he'll be good enough for us to progress into a top 4 side unless he improves this season.

but that is exactly the point i am making ......against saints he had improved to an almost flawless showing that night , SO he has improved and your only as good as your last outing as they say
AND he is still very young remember, tons of time left in him and now as said previously yeaman will have to play his way back in if Turner has another couple of games like that will he not!!!

Quote: voodooroo "and on the other hand are we saying we should not offer him a new contract based on how many matches has he played this season so far and one of those he looked outstanding ????
seems a tad early to discuss who should be leaving just yet to me'"


I'm saying that over the course of his time here he has not been good enough to merit keeping, but should that change this year I wouldn't be averse to him staying. We should therefore be looking for potential replacements already, because if we don't and he gets no better we will possibly find ourselves scrabbling around looking for a centre amongst those other clubs didn't want as the better options have already been picked up.

Seriously, it's not as if we've not seen much of Turner to make an informed opinion, and it's much more sensible to appraise him on the longer term rather than just one outing where he's looked good.

Quote: Willa "Players have to play for there place. The fact that he took his chance proves that Gentles system is working. If he keeps playing well it should be Yeaman who has to earn his place back.'"


Agreed, and if he keeps Yeaman out by playing well I've no doubt he'll earn another deal. I'm just saying that at this stage he is still yet to earn it, and we should be looking to bring someone in until that changes.

Yes, really. We were completely dominant and conceded just one interception try. Our only defensive weakness that day was when Bradford tore down our right centre channel for 5-10 minutes early in the 2nd half.

or are we STILL basing opinions on the previous clown we had in charge and the inept manner in which he coached, played and subbed our team.
Turner is class have always said that and will stand by it..... lots of years left in him at FC IMO and he will now under a structured coach get better and better and better as we go and hope thats what you all want...
Given now a run against Cas and Widnes whilst yeamo is out it may just be the run he needed coming off the back of a cracking dispaly at Saints to plant his flag !!!
Everyone who travelled with us against Saints all agreed he was outstanding last Friday so long may it continue... we have bigger issues to worry about IMO than Turner
