Yep.. but slowing down from where he started at means that be is still pacier than your average Championship winger.

On thread drift:
[quote="tb":24qn1m99]Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99]
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
[i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99]

| If I was going to pick a player for next season, which may possibly make SL, I might be tempted to go for Tim Bergin (Sheffield winger). He’s looked good every time I’ve seen him play. He’s fast, great step, quick hands, and seems pretty tough. He looks fairly young too. He was their stand-out player, when he played against us last week.
He reminds me a bit of Paddy Flyyn.

| Not a cat in hells chance could Liam Harrison make it in Super League, he only has 2/3 decent games a year, the rest of the time he's a liability, crap defence and struggles to keep hold of the ball !! I think Bracek could get back in there, but not at prop, more likely in the back row. Would like to see how Royston would go at that level, very good player to watch. Also think James Nixon could step up with the pace he has, lightning quick.

| Quote: widneslardboy "Always hard to tell really isnt it ?
Weve seen relatively solid players in this league adapt well to the full time environment and prove to be capable in SL and on the other side players who you would think would be capable of stepping up struggling to make an impact.
Ryan Tandy as an NRL winner after his spells at this level probably sum it all up.
Full time environment can make a massive difference.'"
I always liked Tandy when he was in this division. Always wondered why he had trouble sticking around at a club. Im fairly positive that Melbourne could turn any player into a good player if they have a decent frame and mentality.

| Never really rated Calvert or he certainly has never really played well against Widnes. I rated him as much as I rated Gregg McNally (not alot!) who is not playing Championship 1 rugby.
It's a question that's difficult to answer, full time training makes a massive difference, better players around them etc. There are certainly players that can make the leap, hopefully Widnes won't have any picked off from them this winter, though I do expect Thacks to go unfortunately.

| Also agree about Liam Harrison, he's too old to make an impact on SL now, if he;s not done it by now he never will.

First time Terry OC has got his hands on a winger.

| Agree with a lot of the above but looking at the dual regs, not many have looked like the standout players in the league so that says that the gap for a few is not that great. Usually comes down to Doopers having 17 players of a high standard when Champs teams have maybe 3 or 4 but Barra did it in the cup against Cas and it looks like Champs are getting closer than a few seasons ago.

| Shawshank are you an agent?
Noticed you popping up on Leighs site also, citing pay cuts across the board. Maybe you are just a friend of an agent, and it just makes you feel important to post snippets of what you have been told.
