Brutally obvious we r short of at least 1 maybe 2 world class centres.cudjoe best for England don't make me laugh.last decent strike centre we had torrens Nero hanger de vere .our backs are very average .be no silverware at all in the near future unless quality signed .we will become another bulls just watch.it really hurts to say this but it's true

Strke centre DeVere ? eh? much more of a defensive player agree about the others .

dont agree for me cudjoe is one of the best centres in the british game, good on his feet , quick , make good breaks, good under high ball and good in defence, imo brown is spot on.

another Bulls ?
sorry but where nowhere near where the bulls have been .
As for the comment on Leroy ...? and you say Brown has lost the plot !

Brutally obvious we are short of a Benji Marshall and a Greg Inglis. Also need two Anthony Watmoughs and a Sam Rapira.

The OP is 267% right. If only we had Dean Hanger right now, we would win the league at a canter. Or should that be a hobble?





God I just loooooove the off-season!

i think Nathan Brown finished his bit about Cudjoe in the Examiner by saying anyone who doesn't think Cudjoe is a good player obviously knows nothing about rugby. Seems people are proving Brown correct on that point lol.

Hanger deary me. Scored a lot of tries in the lower divisions and did what exactly in Super League?

imo the best strike centre we've had in recent years has to be brandon costin, that lad could find his way to the try line.

totally agree with this.

Wardle is only 19 and looking pretty good also.

Dean hanger was one of those classic players that were far too good for lower league rugby but not good enough for Superleague standard. Another example being Greg Austin at Halifax who ran riot in the lower divisions but was average in the top tier.

Jimmy Evans was good until he fell foul of the Sharpe one.

one of the best players in the last 10 games only wish he would you his speed when he is clear maybe he still lacks conferdence still think we need class 6

Evans was ok but too slow to be a real top quality player.
Costin however was a class act playing at either centre or stand off.

Costin was a ok standoff but a great centre, on of the best in his day IMO.

Wardle is good but raw, 19 though and will only get better. Cudjoe is superb. Eos.

I don't think that Cudjoe has really proved himself to be top flight yet, but he certainly has that potential. Sometimes he can be a game winner, sometimes he can be very poor. It's all about confidence with him. Just look at the try he bombed v Leeds last week...an absolute sitter, turned the game. Yet this is the same lad who backed himself under pressure & came up with the play that knocked Wire out last year. Just can't weigh him up sometimes, but I like him & am glad he plays for us.

he made the pass, brough dropped it??

Yep, brough could have taken it, but would have been taken down anyway- but I said at the time he should've kicked it!
However easy to see when your watching! Not knocking him!

It looked a poor pass from where we were. But a different angle may tell a different story.

Also, saying he lacks confidence in himself sometimes isn't knocking him. It's stating a fact based on some of his performances. I did write that he has potential and that I like him. How is that knocking him?

was way forward anyway from cudjoe

...........must be contageous!!
after all -we played Leeds twice in a short time!!

It looked to me like Brough wanted it kicking in,which is why he was in a poor position to pass to and take the pass

yeh i thought cudjoe had the option to kick aswell with no full back and 3 on 1

A neat kick can be great to watch but in the situation like last week the ball should be passed 100% of the time IMO. Brough had a free run to the line.

totallt agree. In a situation like that you have to pass as it is a far safer option than a kick. All Brough had to do was catch it and it was a walk in. i know it was forward but did Bentham actually give the forward pass or only the knock on?

Basically, Brough made a couple of howlers, but also made some astounding plays

That's Broughy!

In all seriousness, he's looked a bit flat and out of sorts since he came back from injury; I wonder if he's fully recovered?

Either way, he's a class act - we've never been the same since he left WTW.

He had cut out the howlers, and I think he wasn't quite fit or up to pace with the game, also he was coming back into a team very low on confidence. Teams low on confidence make bad calls. That's what happened in this game IMO.
