You won't be saying that in a year's time when George Williams will be with us.

| Well, I'll quite happily stick my head above the parapet and say (with a due sense of impending ridicule) that I'd be rather pleased to see this happen. Oh lord, there - I've said it.
Brown is, probably along with Williams, one of the few half-backs who still possesses the hands [iand brains[/i to anticipate a gap and the ability to exploit it.
Gidley @ 1, Brown @ 6, Patton @ 7, Ratchford @ 3 does it for me.

On his day I agree, but it doesn't happen often enough, certainly not often enough to justify the bill. I have a feeling we are going to be in for another one of those seasons with six different half-back combinations. Before we know it, it'll be September again and nobody will have the foggiest who should be playing where.

| I don't think Brown is bagged yet but we are definitely in for him. Widnes taking the pee on transfer.

| The top and bottom of it is that a Club with true ambition wouldn't sign a player like brown. They'd either bring in a true world class half or promote a home grown star. But no, if this deal comes to fruition then we'd be seeing two steps backwards rather than one forward.

The question has to be asked, why are Widnes so keen to offload their captain so late in the year?

| Im happy with this signing.... We obviously need another half.. A proven SL player with a fantastic kicking game will do for me short term.

| Not really a signing looking to the future really
He will do a job for sure but is hardly someone who we can build a team around and Will the transfer fee represent value for money if rumours of Williams in 2018 are true.

Care to enlighten us as to why you think Gidley is a crook.

I fail to see what that has to do with The facts that surround Kevin Brown but, yeah... Good one.
If Kevin Brown can't put half a shift in behind a pack that consists of: Graham, Hodgeson, Hill, Whitehead, Bateman and Burgess then that kind of shows just how below average he is.
Couldn't tackle a roast dinner, can only pass one way and made of biscuit. But that's ok.... Because he's got a mint kicking game. Jesus wept.
Maybe next year Matty Russell's ded good scoots from dummy half will change everything and give Brown loads of time to run across the line throwing outrageous dummies only for him to get banged, knock on, then spend two minutes sat on his knees looking round with that stupid bewildered look on his face as if its everyone else's fault that he didn't pass the bleeding ball.

Because instead of passing the ball to Russell, who was stood in about 15m of space, in the last play of the grand final he decided to run the ball into three blokes?

the 'facts' that you provide against Kevin Brown very much appear to be your opinion.
So i wont be taking any notice of them.

Just saying you can't look past facts. Our edge defence was poor at best last season. I just don't see how signing him will take us forward.
- 32 years old.
- Injury prone.
- Jounrneyman.
- Underachiever.
- defensively soft.

The simple answer is....they're not, however....
Any responsible club who care about the warfare of the players, wouldn't stand in the way of him making a better career opportunity.
The only barrier to cross, is how much a sweetener the seller wants.
