Quote: barham red "If we had Mariano now he'd been on the injury table like he is at cas at this time. I agree when he is playing he looks good but we have to remember we had Newton and Galea in front of him at the time.
Matt Cook was highly overrated by our fans, he did ok but looked lazy in defence. Never understood all the clamour for him, some fans made out he was the next Sam Burgess. Very like Ben Cockayne in that his weaknesses were overlooked and his abilities over inflated because a section of our more vocal fans liked him.'"
That may be true, but he (Matt Cook) certainly outshone Willie Mason during his brief time at Rovers. He was a decent player, solid, not a mega star but a good player.
