Wonder if Hall regrets moving to Rovers, could be playing first team at Wakey, but is playing reserve, can't get in despite injuries and Peters bringing in loan players instead of playing him.
Dagger playing well too, did Wakey get the better deal?
Our centres are fit.
Lad is only 20 (21 next month) and he had a decent run in the team not long after joining.
He’s one for the future. I’ve seen potential be overhyped or go unfulfilled too often to get excited but it is part of building a squad, and every signing is some sort of gamble.
Our season still has a pulse more or less, and after multiple failed iterations of patience-based approaches it is nice to see Rovers keeping pushing. Even if it doesn’t work, and I’m conditioned to imagine that it won’t, it’s nice to be trying.
Apart from ‘small, mobile pack’, there’s nothing that makes me shudder more than a ‘long-term plan’. Lazy thinking, passivity and/or poverty masquerading as prudence and high-mindedness. If Corey Hall or anybody has an issue with going flat out now, I would invite them to find out which team Jamie Peacock is managing now and eff off there, where I’m sure they do things the ‘right way’.
I may never get over that. 7 years it has been, and such random things can trigger me.
Just to say though. I think Peacock was a genuinely great player and he seems a good bloke. And I know it hurt him too. The poor deluded soul thought it might work!
