| Omari's good point was his speed, but unfortunately he needs a good 50 metres to get up to that speed and generally got caught or ran out of pitch length to cause any real threat .....A kick from the base of a scrum within Omari's own 20 metres and Omari would be second to none in chasing the ball, but, once again unfortunately, how often does that happen within the game of rugby league?
His main bad point is that he is windy and doesn't like the contact ......He would rather step inside then put his body on the line and go for the corner (we all remember Salford), and if ever a brawl develops he will be at the back taking no part as peacemaker or enforcer whatsoever.
But saying that, he is a young kid so he may have changed and learnt from his Super League experience .....If we were in the Championship, I would definitely take a gamble on him because he has that one quality that is treasured within the game .....Speed!

Goose, do you mean Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings?
Not listened much, but visited the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in Macon a few years back and she was in there. That said, I thought Dap Tone was based in NY, but seems Sharon Jones was born in Georgia.
I also saw an amazing British soul band called Mamas Gun in York last year, supporting Lisa Stansfield (still brilliant BTW) and they covered one of their songs I think. mamasgun.co.uk

| With the right coach he could be a good aquisition for you, I think if Chester had been in charge instead of Sandercock at the time he might have persevered with him. He is an athlete & just needs the right handling in my humble opinion. Hope he dose well for you.

| Caro was ok, but it's right & proper we moved him on. We have far better wingers now, both on long contracts who can score as well as do the hard yards on exit sets. With cover in the form of Cockayne & Dixon, keeping him would have served no purpose.

| Totally agree with that comment, Caro was and is a decent player. To call him windy is a poor call, he did have a habit of making poor decisions, but to see the fall of Welham and his inability to tackle under Sandecock, then his rise under Chester speaks volumes, I know we have some decent wingers now, but I would be interested to see how he would have developed this season under Chester and Poaching

Relatively speaking, yes he is. He signed a 3 year deal when he joined last summer.

Certainly is! For some reason I thought he had only signed a 1 year deal.

Good news for us, although if he ever decided to play the "homesick" card it's not worth the paper its written on.
I worry about Ken now his bird has gone back down under.

| Caro will probably be most remembered for his hesitation which cost a certain try - and win - at Salford.
That is perhaps a little unfair but Sio would score 10 times out of 10 in that situation and Mantellato would also score 10 times out of 10 in that situation.
Caro just doesn't have the instincts of a RL player having spent most of his teens at QPR trying to make it as a footballer. And he isn't as quick as he is made out to be partly because he firstly needs too much thinking time. I expect he'll be released by Bradford at the end of the year hope he proves me wrong.

I'll be in a majority of one here but I thought we should have kept him, more coaching and he could be a decent larker.
If his centre can put him in space, he'll score.
He became the focus of much unfair criticism on here after badly bombing a try at Salford.
His try scoring ratio for us was excellent, he cuts a mean rug on the dancefloor and makes a fabulous chimichanga's.'"
A majority of two Goose. I was disappointed to see him released.

This ^^^^
Some games he looked like a rabbit in headlights when catching the ball and wondering what to do next. His split second hesitations cost him any advantage he had with ball in hand. He just seems to lack a natural rugby brain.
Saying that, good luck to the kid

| Great natural athlete, with fantastic pace once he gets into his stride. Not quite so fast off the mark, but not slow either. A typical Sandercock signing in many ways - a somewhat flawed talent. His flaw was that he was raw and he showed a few signs last year that it was being remedied. I think this could be a good move for him. A very strong team at their level, so a chance to gain more experience and build confidence.

| The Hammersmith Express bagged a hat-trick against Leigh today, including the late equalizer in a 36 all draw. Over 9,000 at Odsal too.
