Good call Michael, "rubs off well on the other players".
I laughed heartily.

Is there any chance Said could get a call up to the France squad at somepoint if he continues his form? Certainly as good as Adel Fellous . . . and would do well for them in my opinion.

We said the same about him last year, but the call never came, but with their new highly intellectual coach - who knows?

Our coach last year Deakin described him as the best impact player outside SL and although I didn't agree with much Deaks said I think he was not far wide of the mark on this comment.

Pleased Said is going well for you guys, he is a real crowd pleaser and only knows one way to run, hard and straight and takes it out of the opposition.

I think had Deakin got the Frog Job Said would be guranteed a call up.

As for Best Impact Player Outside SL. Probably correct, Paired with Frank they can change the course of a game (Hunslet and Sheffield games changed when they entered the field)

Never heard a bad thing said about him while he was at Oldham (and I live in Oldham and speak to a few people about the Roughyeds as well as reading the Oldham Chron) and not heard a bad thing about him at Fax yet either.

He's already one of my Son's Favourites and I reckon many more will be taking that opinion.
