As Justin said he wanted more size on the park, he went for " a football decision.........................

Paul Cooke Height 196cm Weight 102kg
Ben Galea Height 178cm Weight 95kg
Ben Cockayne Height 175cm Weight 86 kg
Chev Walker Height 191cm Weight 101kg
Scott Wheeldon Height 183cm Weight 98kg

So why couldnt Chev have gone in at centre, then we could have kept the best half back combination in Cookie and Dobson, Wheeldon has been excellent of late, and Ben Cockayne would have been perfect at replacing Fithenry at Hooker. That then would have given us not only more size but also more skill and aggression.

Motto of the week - It is the way of the weak to secretly bleat to those in authority rather than fight their own battles.:27608.jpg



Quote: blakeysrobin "I'll say it. Walker is the biggest waste of money at Rovers. Mills has a purpose at least.'"


TBF i wasn't referring to Mills, who was one of the better performers in terms of go forward. My point is that if Huddersfield pack is so big and dominant why are they not beating everyone?? Teams with smaller packs than Rovers have beaten them this season so size only means something if it is used properly. Technique, application and controlled aggression are the order of the day at all levels of rugby.

As for Walker he is a much better player than he's given credit for and being as he is just coming back from injury and has been played in three different positions, i think he's done ok. Second Row is his best position, his days are centre are over imo and he most deffo ain't a prop.

2nd row was always his best position and he did well there for GB but his problem was he never wanted to play there which is part of what led him to fall out with Tony Smith at Leeds I believe.

Have to agree there, the fact is Fozzard only got put on his ar$e because he went for a big shot against a big player who was fresh on taking his 1st drive... Fozzards technique was wrong, he didnt think what he was doing he just went for a big hit, same goes for Makka - he goes for a big hit but the player still has a chance to get back up as the tackle never gets finished off.
