Yep just looked it up. Sezer was one of the five Man of Steel contenders at end of his first year then hardly played the next year (injured)

In addition if you think the way Konny is playing now bears any resemblance to his last season with us then you might want to have think about your own 'insights'
So which is it? Hurrell was in the Dream Team twice so wasn't crap like you said?
Or Sezer got some MOS points for a while so he was great like you said?

Wrt Hurrell, we used him as a battering ram his entire career at Leeds, lazily lobbing him the ball on out-sets demanding he made yards while being continuously pummelled and then expecting him to still have the legs to burst through at the other end. Only one game against Huddersfield sticks out when he made an typical blockbuster run and evaded a few to score a fantastic try which is what we should have been doing, letting him get a head of steam and running at pace at teams, instead as mentioned we used him as a blunt instrument. Yes he had cows teets for hands, was dubious in defence but I’m convinced if we used him the right way, we’dve seen more pluses than negatives in hindsight. Playing in this sts team they have the players and nous to negate a lot of his bad habits while we didn’t.
