I have watched a few Huddersfield Giants games this season and I have noticed just how underwhelmingly poor prop forward Eorl 'My uncle was Big Daddy' Crabtree is at footy.

For a 6ft 6" big b*stard he should be the best prop in SL.

But he isn't even the best prop in Huddersfield.


Why is this???


Has he ever played for GB???


Maybe a haircut would help.

He's an exceptional player yet to prove himself at the top international level. Go away.

'Yet to prove himself???!!!!'

Hes fricken 26!!!!

and you're what? 12?

When I wake up tomorrow I will be 13



But Eorl will still be a poor prop

He's a good fit modern prop, with a good leg drive, an accurate and skilful offload and a solid defence. You are a poor troll.

he played for england and he will probably get into the squad in the 4 nations

Except he is none of the above




Are you sure you know the player I'm talking about??

Eorl Crabtree??

6ft 6"?

Claims to be a prop??

Plays for Huddersfield??

Really poor player??

Long hair in a pony tail??

Uncle was 'Big Daddy?

God I hope so



England might struggle to finish third in that case

yes we get it, he has long hair, he's tall and he's related to an ex pro wrestler. ha ha ha. You're very very very funny.

oh well we will see eorl has had a great season you must not watch alot of huddersfield games!!

You clearly haven't got a clue who I mean though as you described him as ' a good fit modern prop, with a good leg drive, an accurate and skilful offload and a solid defence'?

I'm on about Eorl Crabtree.

The bloke who keeps knocking on, complaining about having his hair pulled and finds it hard to bust his way through the oppositions defensive line even though he is 6ft 6 and probably about 120kg

He's one of the form players in SL. Whether he's international class im not yet sure. Id have him at Quins in a heartbeat. There are plenty of worse props in SL and the NRL but I guess you're not interested in bagging them as they've not got a pony tail or an ex wrestler for an uncle. Because you're a child.

If poor old Eorl Crabtree is one of SL's 'form' players then I think the Pommie game is even worse than I first thought.

Looking at some of the decisions Barry Mac Dermott has made at London over the past few seasons they would sign Ronnie Corbett as a prop if he was cheap enough.

Im not sure Barrie McDermott has been involved in any decisions at 'London' over the past few seasons. What do you mean?

I mean London are a woeful side with some terrible players and Barry couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag.

You are trying to tell me Barry MacDermott hasn't had ANY input into any of the Harlebroncos players?????

Not that im aware of. I know he's been doing some SKY tv work, but i dont think he's had any input on the coaching or recruitment at Harlequins. And he spells his name 'Barrie'.

do you mean brian mcdermott at quins by chance? BARRIE is at leeds doing community work

Trying to impersonate League Freak is not seen as 'cool' you know, you're not even very good at it.

Stupid boy

Most overrated player in any sport

Brian McDermott.....Barry McDermott..... meh


Don't you mean he is doing COMMUNITY SERVICE?

I,ve never really rated him to be honest, seems to have the odd stand out game but definitly not "international" standard, the only thing he's good at is offloading from a static position.
He you compare him to the stats of James Graham/Jamie Peacock he shows up as a very poor player, very poor in yardage and lazy in no of carries per game, still the home fans like him.

Who cares?

Guess it's because he is a local lad
