They didn't, honestly they didn't. In the first half, we pinned Saints down pretty well. In the second half, when it all went to pot, we had no kicking game on the back of no go forward.
I've watched the game a few times since, partially down to some of the chat on here, and in the first half I thought we kicked & in particular chased pretty well actually.

I'm going to agree to disagree for know but please watch the Briers kicking game in the next 3 games and we will have this debate again.

My point was that he played circa 15 games of SL that year. I pointed out that he missed the start after signing through injury. I know he played some of that time on the wing, some in the halves. When we had Joey, he played at Hull away on the wing, setting up a try for Toa. He played a game at Wigan in the halves, scored a try kicking on a Briers kick through and diving on it.
I'd go with Dave T, he knows his stuff, and it seems about right to me.
EDIT : According to Dave T stats, he played 20 games, bit more than I thought. If you give him the sub apps as wing (?), then he played half on the wing, half in the halves pretty much, that seems about right from memory.
Wood & Briers were the halves. (Joey & Appo the odd appearance.)

I would suspect that includes playoffs and cup games.
According to the official club website he played 18 games plus 3 on the bench, so that would be the same as mine (as mine exclude the playoff against Hull).
Union is played by people who close airports after a bit of snow, League is played by people who would go and have a snowball fight with a 747

did he balls, he got played on the on the wing at the end of 05 as appo had been fooked off in to make room for johns, cna't remember what had had happened to gaskell whether he'd been dropped or injured at that point.
