Hmmm, your opinion but I disagree.

The forwards for me were simply going through the motions in each game apart from Leeds, KR and Stains (2nd half). They have pretty much come out and said that the performances have been below par!!

Some would say that the platform needs to be laid by the forwards for the backs and 3/4's to show their gile - no gile, no platform.

Read my post again and you will see i said i wasn't judging him on that.

Okay - still reads the same. Cracking contradiction in there...!! You say your not judging him on international appearances and then come out with the above. So, he didn't get too many GB caps and therefore, in your words, not worthy.

Oh and he was asked to cover for the departing Mr Long (after he spat his dummy and refused to say sorry for being a naughty boy) when they were in Aus the other year and declined the offer. I don't think Lee and Noble get on you see.....

Is this yours?

If such a great scrum half gets pushed into the background when playing alongside a scrawny standoff thats never played for Great Britain... is alledgedly part of the old pop drinkers regime and is an all round crap halfback who cant kick defend or run......then Christ Help Monaghan when he's faced with a Bradford Leeds or Saints pack that are on top................I'll get me clean shorts....

I dont Recall Allan Langer getting Pushed into the Background....did Andrew Johns have to listen to Cullen say Joey your just here as a publicity stunt Let Briers do his stuff.....

Briers has played alongside the best and the worst and the ordinary......Michael Monaghan is in the ordinary i'm afraid, you need to accept it .....if he improves then great but dont blame Monaghans form on Briers

HAve you seen the ben westwood one?
