I didn't say he was better I said he was a bigger capture, i.e. a bigger name, which he undoubtebly is... sure maybe he'll flop in SL next year but it's not likely.

Quote: garry brindley "Houghton and Briscoe

Don't talk stupid!!!!

Briscoe is one of the most exciting prospects in this country for a long time, Houghton is fast turning into an international quality hooker if not already.

Watts i'll give you, but Welham is little better than average...

This is before we bring Reece Lyne into this!!

In terms of how you measure success, looking again from the point of view of an Aussie coming over you'd look at how the two clubs have performed over the last few years... I'm 99.9% sure you wouldn't care less about what community work the club is doing or what operating profit they were making (as long as you were sure you'd get paid).'"

If you are not part of the solution then you are more likely part of the problem...:

Like I say if you had used Wigan or Warrington as your measuring tool then fair enough but I dont see what more Rovers have to offer then Hull.

As things stand both clubs are fairly equal on the pitch and neither are the bookies favourites for silverware (although Hull are better odds then KR for next year icon_biggrin.gif )

Willie Mason has been signed to make some money for KR - put bums on seats and good luck to them he is an exciting player.

Both coaches have a bit to prove next year if both boards have any ambition. icon_wink.gif

But the point you were making was that Morgan makes better signings... you can't say that Mason is a better signing if he hasn't played!! He maybe a bigger name, but along with that comes a bigger wage and a bigger ego. Ultimately a bigger risk!!

Spoken like a true Robin! icon_biggrin.gif

didn't realise that, he must have been 16/17 when we signed him though so we can hardly take full credit for his development

Quote: garry brindley "Fair enough maybe 'ambitious' was the wrong word, 'successful' was probably fairer... I've described why Rovers are currently more successful than us,if it had just been for one year you could have called it a blip, 2 a worrying trend.. but a I think when they've been on top this long you just have to accept they are the city's top dogs. Yes we have a better stadium and play in front of more fans, that's one thing we do have... As it happens I don't actually rate Morgan that highly, but I struggle to think of one aspect where Agar bests him... can you genuinly come up with any?'"

Depends how you define success. Before you get too giddy on the play-offs front, let's not forget that under the format up to 2008, Rovers wouldn't have even qualified for the play-offs in 2010. Agar took FC to a major final that realistically we might have won had Adam Dykes been available. The closest Morgan's come to a major final is a 50-0 ting by Saints in a semi. I personally don't think either team are top dogs in the city. FC won both league derbies, Rovers won a play-off that ultimately led to nothing but a sound beating by Wigan.

I don't rate Agar, as I've said repeatedly, but what do you think of Tom Briscoe? I think he's pretty good. That's Agar's work. I like O'Meley a lot and think Fitz is great. Both signed by Agar. Houghton has developed into a first choice hooker who may be knocking on the international door soon. He's stepped up under Agar. I like that Agar's been brave enough to give Lyne 6 games at the age of 17. Morgan by contrast will shuffle the Aussies round and play them out of position to avoid this sort of risk. Morgan is better in terms of gameplanning, but I don't see him as an irresistible draw for a prospective Aussie player,at all.
