Me n Penny ..... when the barman calls last orders ..... no contest

Lee Briers?

Not in ordinary play, but when a decision goes against him and he wants a word with the referee about it.

and he ran even faster when feleti mateo wanted a word with him in the international at widnes a couple of years ago

There was (allegedly) some interest from Widnes, I think.


Essentially, our take on the trial (iirc) was he'd done well, better than anyone expected, but ATEOTD, he was 30, needed bringing up to speed on basics, before we could even think of getting up to SL level, and we didn't have the time or money to invest in that when we had a good crop of youngsters coming through.

Probably a fair assessment, but then with that being the case it was always going to be a fruitless 'project' wasn't it really (apart from the publicity). If anything I reckon it would have been bad for morale having him wear a Cas shirt (if only for a reserve game or two) when some local kids would jump at the chance to do so.
Not having a go though because it's not the first time such a thing has been tried (e.g. read somewhere before Daley Thompson had a brief go at football!

), and it probably won't be the last.

Slightly O/T but type Vainikolo Smashes Aspinwall into a certain sharing site, Don't we all miss this guy in full flow...
