Quote ="Rob Wire"I`m not sure why your suprised that i`m giving praise to a player, unlike a few certain regular posters on here ive not gone out of my way to start a thread to have a go at Chris Bridge in the past.
All i did previsouly was to contribute to another thread and say that replacing Martin Gleeson with Chris Bridge wasn`t strengthening us at right centre and i pointed out his weak attempt on Danny Tickle against Hull which lead to a try, its just a natural thought for someone to have when you let a proven international standard player leave and replace him with someone that was relatively unproven at centre given his limited games for us in that position.
People would have been up in arms on here if Paul Cullen had replaced Martin Gleeson in the past with Chris Bridge, like i said at the time it could be a masterstroke by Tony Smith just like it could be a masterstroke in him signing a player that was unwanted by Wigan in Richie Mathers.'"
Do you now think that chris bridge has strengthened the team? I have said this before & i think he has got a lot more to offer than MG. Maybe we won't see him at the highest international level but if he carries on he deserves to be!
