Im not Tony Smith but anyone with a brain can see what is happening and the direction that he wants to take the team in.


Presumptiontastic. You seem to be suggesting Bridge will be operating at SO there and it's palpably clear it's not the position for him. Can count on one finger a match where he's taken a game by the scruff of the neck to win it for us. Bradford Away, and a few years back now. Don't get me wrong, I rate Bridge, but he isn't a SO.

Not at all Rocky, i actually think that a new SO will also be on Tonys shopping list for 2010.

Bridge is utility at best.

Ridiculous.

He's a fair bit better than that. (as a right centre anyhow)

Jack of all trades master of none springs to mind. He can do a job almost anywhere in the backs but I would not say he excels in any particular position which is a shame as he has bags of talent.

Are you suggesting that Bridge is a top class specialist centre?

Bridge has found his position in the centres, where he's been a genuine threat, but I'm sure the gaffer has a plan in mind.

ISWT.

Yes I am.

I thought he was excellent there. He scored tries and set up tries, along with doing a good job suring up that area defensively. I thought he was as good as anything kicking around in SL in that position.

He looks ten times better at right centre than Matt King does for example.

Fair play, lets hope you are right then Tony can focus on getting a decent half back pairing and also another frontline prop to replace Rauhihi.

I'd love us to get that big lad from Huddersfield, Crabtree.

Imagine that front row four...Morley, Carvell, Crabtree and Wood :D

I'm not a Crabtree fan at all, just don't get him. Think he's really run of the mill.

I'm quite happy to see Cooper get more game time sooner rather than later. In a pretty dismal Bradford performance I thought he was decent again, I've said it before, I think he's pushing P.Wood & Rauhihi for a starting berth.

If we signed a prop, say SL based, realistically like, I'd be happy with Sam Burgess (for a fee) or say Heckenburg, Ward or Mitchell Sargeant, someone low key like that.

Willie Masons looking for a Super League contract..... would be perfect along with Morley in the front row.
