Ok,

We have the following who (IMO) can only play 1 position:

Briscoe
Welham
Fox
Dobson
Fisher

Plus a few props who don't have the speed or mobility to play elsewhere. However, the point I was making is that when you have to play 17 every week from a 25 man squad, a large proportion of your squad might be asked to might be asked to move around a bit from week to week, or even during the game itself.

Snap him up after last night's performance, thought he was very solid.

Played very well,now if he can just do that consistantly,bingo.

thats the problem, youve seen him play 1 decent game. Watch him over a season and you will realise why he is only a back up squad player

Aye...the last time he played I was embarrassed for him, he was just passing the ball randomly...That pass near the opposition line to Tansy (I think it was)

Oh I watched one game of your lot and he was utterly dreadful, and I do not like the way he carries the ball loosely, asking for trouble.

He'd only be a back up player for us too, but I reckon Morgan could get more out of him and develop his game further, in my opinion of course.

I know what you mean though, he can be dodgey, but if he keeps that form then why not?

Rovers fans are a little bit cocky IMO in claiming that as soon as Morgan signs a player it's a given that the kid will develop at a rate of knots and is guaranteed to maximise his potential, like Morgan has some sort of Midas touch. I'm not denying that Watts in particular, and also Welham are good young players that Morgan has helped to develop. But for every Watts there are players like Ratu, Spaven, Esders, I'Anson, Menzies,Kirk Netherton etc. Of course all clubs have hits and misses, but is Morgan's hit/miss ratio so much better than anyone else's? People on here are quick to dismiss Agar as an utter incompetent in player development and blame him and his regime solely for Hall's inability to secure a regular spot, but Briscoe, Lyne, and Houghton for 3 are players who've emerged as SL players under his supervision in the last 2 years and don't look too shabby IMO. I wish Hall well wherever he goes, but just think it's a bit arrogant to claim Morgan only has to wave a magic wand over Hall and his defensive frailties and decision-making will be instantly rectified.

From a personal point of view I don't feel any arrogance towards Rovers, the phrase King of Kings just seems to work.
