IMHO we have no one better. The only other option is to play the likes of Lynne/Tuffour, who I don't think are ready as yet.

They're not. But let's wait for the rallying calls anyway.

Let's face it - we didn't have a back-up plan other than the centre Briscoe, the two rookies (who will be fab) and the cobbledy WhitingHallUtility stopgap when we decided at the 11th hour Raynor was a liability.

The whole wing shenanigans rested upon darling Calderwood's head. Woe betide he got injured....

So up steps Turner...?

why aren't they ready?

Briscoe was younger than tuffour and a similar age to lyne.

Salford next week I'd give one a shot

I thought that was Steve Davis

Reardon-owned by Turner

What a HIT !!!!

So was FITZY'S on whoever it was minutes later

Watch this kid as the pitches dry out, speedster, I watched a try he scored for Salford full length of the pitch like a bat out of hell, his defence is not too shabby either.

Thanks for this thread .............I thought I was going mad................The HDM recons that Manu put readon into the hordings!!

I know I wear lenses but they are supposed to correct my vision!!

Really pleased with how Turner is going at 6 when he gets his chance, so far he is looking pretty impressive.

I was sat at the North end of the East stand so was about 80 metres from the tackle, stood up first in our section and shouted something like "well in Turner" then as the cheers died down people around were muttering it was 'Manu' and I felt a bit of a numpty. I think Manu was one of the first in to congratulate Turner so when the group of players dispersed it looked like it was Manu they had gone to pat on the back.

Surprising how often Turner gets mistaken for Manu, i did it a few times in his first game.

So we are agreed it was Turner.........................Great bloody local rag

id give tuffour a chance nxt week definatley, he deserves a chance and a oppitunity exactly the same as briscoe he was given an chance and look at him now. lyne is to young i feel at this moment but tuffour 20 aint he so bit more experienced. GIVE HIM A GO AGAR

id wait till the next draw for the challenge cup, if we get a lower league team then id try him out, these superleague teams are must wins if we want to keep up with the likes of wigan and warrington.
