Sure his performance was noticed by the England coach who was in the stand.

I think maybe Berrigan might be a tad worried, he tried when he came on, made a couple of big errors dropping the ball but you could see he wanted to make an impact.

Who would have thought a year ago, Berrigan having to up his game to play.

Well done Danny

Why would Berro be worried? According to the club he's had a big hand in Houghtons progress.

I'd imagine he's quite proud.

Danny has practically carried us over the past few games. His enthuasism really gets the team going and Berrigan would be right to be worried if he don't find himself in the team every week.

Berrigans coming towards the end of a fine career, after his contract was over hull would have hoped to have a home grown at the ability to replace him.
It's happened a year early!!
We now have a ex Australian international keeping houghton on his toes for the 9 shirt, able to call on him from the bench if houghton tires or is having a poor game and he can cover centre and loose in case of a injury in the game.

Worried? Maybe not.

Houghton was excellent, he has really pushed on this season.

Fantastic, nevr doubted how good this kid can be, now he has had the chance to start and really kick on his career.

Should at least be in the initial England squad at the end of the year.

Hodgson isnt even close to Houghton. I like GG but he talks some rubbsih at times.

Wasn't convinced by Houghton last season or at the start of the season but I'm delighted to be getting proved wrong. The last 3 months he has been outstanding and easily our best player.

Outstanding,played his heart out for the club.

How many red shirts did he have round him when he set us on our way?

Outstanding again.He is getting better every week.
Playing like that, he deserves to be on the plane to Oz at the end of the season.

Another year with Berrigan and then the No 9 Jerseys his imo . Another great game from him.

He has had an excellent mentor in Berrigan and I think Webster seems to be helping him with his awareness at the ptb as well.

Just what I was thinking. Should be on the plane with Tom - if only for the experience.

He'll have been on a plane before, I reckon.

i geddit

I don't

I saw what you did there

bb didn't.

Still not getting it, is it a mens only joke

It's not funny if you have to explain it. It wasn't that funny to start with.

The 4th Tongan said that Houghton should be on the plane with Tom Briscoe, if only for the experience. I said he's probably been on a plane before, implying that he meant the experience of going on the plane itself, rather than the experience of touring with the England squad.

Told you it wasn't that funny!

thank goodness it was only that simple, I was beginning to think old age was creeping in

If it was so simple, why didn't you get it?

Women don't do simple...everything has to be complex

Hmm. Sounds like a rubbish excuse for being a bit slow to me...

I agree, we tend to talk a load of shiite as well
