I know he's favourite to win this years garrett crossmanaward for scapegoat of the year but in all fairness hes played really well the last 3 or 4 games, certainly better than a couple of our front line props.
If we got rid we'd no doubt judt sign another also ran on a lot more cash from either oz or somewhere else.
If JM had have got rid 2 years ago and he'd gone to wakey there'd no doubt be a thread on here saying how good he was snd we shouldn't have let him go.
He's our longest serving player, puts in a lot of good work and i reckon doesnt cost the earth.
Well done Jason, lets hope you make afew eat there words.

just signed a new 2 year deal. WTF??????

I've said a few times on this forum that i'm not nev's biggest fan, however as a SQUAD player i feel its ok, as he's on the homegrown list and will be cheap on the cap, its the fact he appears to be in the 17 every week when fit. for me he'd play when we had an injury or suspension or 4 or over the silly easter period and not a great deal else of the time. He's not the sort of player i'm chuffed about resigning unless he's going to be back up, which given that morgan is in charge isn't the case.

not going to frighten any other side in super league this signing

Agree.

And there you have the ambitions of the club. If Netherton makes the 17 for the next 2 years I guarentee we will win zip.

Think he's brilliant personally - works his butt off and is someone the fans and his fellow players can rely on, win-win IMO.

Take the hyphen out of the title,and some of you will be chuffed.

Hey here's a new game, Rovers Scapegoat 13, here's mine (main scapegoat year in brackets):

1. Leroy Rivett (2006)
2. Casey Maybury (2004)
3. Rob Danby (1998)
4. Kane Epati (2005)
5. Liam Colbon (2010)
6. Jake Webster (2006
7. James Webster (2007)
8. Jim Gannon (2007)
9. Andy Ellis (2006)
10. David Mills (2008)
11. Dwayne Barker (2006)
12. Jason Netherton (2011)
13. Damian Ball (2004 I think)

Not very good / correct I know, but just thought would be interesting to see what could come up with.

Im not been funny but theres no way Rob Danby was a scapegoat, he was just crap. The most lightweight player ive ever seen play the game.
