Drops the ball a lot. Think his off field priorities take away so much from a could have been....

I've watched him over the years, and although he's not the same as the year you won the cup, still feel he could make an impact off the bench.

In 2005 he genuinely deserved his international call up, he was very good for us that year which makes it even more of a shame that his issues have caused such a slide.

I got the impression he was a crowd favourite at the KC? Maybe I was wrong!

I got the impression he was [iin[/i with the 'favourite crowd' at the KC? Maybe I was right.

Yep he was

In his first spell a couple of years ago maybe.

He is a liability 'on pitch' with dropped balls and giving penalties.. No doubt has the heart of a lion as he's not the biggest prop but booze and professional sport don't mix.....

Going to celtic with tommy lee!.

not the biggest prop,but gives it a good go,but sometimes it aint good enough.i've seen him in either corals on anlaby road,or in town on the ale far too much.professional rugby players,should take care of themselves.drink in moderation,and not the night before a match!!

Waste of talent.

Well 2005 showed what hard work and determination can get you, an international call up.

The fact he nearly ended up at Donny before we rescued him says lot about his fall from grace.

With the money pro's are paid today they should be able to set themselves up for life. The Paul Cooke's, Lee radford's of this world will do that.

Thackery & King have drunk and gambled it away and in the meantime had a severe impact on their future prospects and earning potential.

i'm awear of some of radfords outside interests (RU coach, RL shop and public house) but where is cooke investing his money?
