My five year old daughter could beat him in a fight. :lol:

Unfair, she would have a handbag.

He's a maniac. There are dirty players, then there are those with a screw loose. O'Meley famously rubs deep heat on his forehead to psych himself up. I think Lauaki must eat the heads of bats and tie their endtrails in his hair. Taz-manian devil.

I think Calderwoods days an an RL player are definitely over - he was nothing short of dire last night.

Now then, it's a race between Sandie....and Fairburn....and the little man is in........yeees he's in.

I, just like those Castleford supporters felt that the ball should have gone to David Plange but he put the bit betwen his teeth...and it was a try

Kevin Ward - best player I have ever seen

The real Mick Gledhill is what you see on here, a Bradford fan ........, but deep down knows that Bradford are just not good enough to challenge the likes of Leeds & St Helens.

Balsawood needs a good centre to give him the short walk overs he used to get when playing at Leeds.

Looks like his bottles gone though, his days could be numbered, maybe NL next season.

Serious question - did he ever have any in the first place? The nickname Balsawood was with him before he left Leeds.

I could never knock his effort at Wigan, but he just struck me as a fast bloke stood by the touchline who could catch on occasion but had a shocking lack of ability to read the game, terrible defensive technique and shirked conflict at every opportunity. Most entertaining thing about him was the first game of the season and seeing how much hair he had lost each winter :D

calderwood is a shi'thouse of the highest order, he likes to niggle the opposition and then runs away when they turn on him. he did it in the confed cup final against tonga at widnes a couple of years back, verbally threatened feleti mateo and when feleti walked towards him he ran off like a big tart.

"Why is Napoleon crying ?" said one sailor to the other, "poor ###### thinks he's being exiled to st helens" came the reply.

When I said his bottle had gone, didn't really mean for his ability to mix it but his ability to take on the opposition, seems to cut inside and run sideways at every opportunity these days.

Thank you for your valuable contribution.

What's the NL?

Netball League maybe?

Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

You would think that after he swatted Leon Pryce off like a fly at Knowsely Rd a few months back. :P

With Halloween coming up I decided to go to my local fancy dress shop to see if I could get a Dracula costume. After a few minutes the assistant handed me a Hull KR shirt asking "Is this suitable?", I replied "I think you may have misheard me, I said I wanted to look like a count."

Luaki what was he up too lifting like that.

Fantastic tackle by Tom Briscoe on Fox at end.

After it seemed to dawn on Lauaki that you couldn't do that , he set him down so carefully it was comical.

Sadly it wasn't foggy in the pub - you saw Rob in all his glory :(

Sorry but the comment wasn't meant to come across as being racist, I think he does look like a few of the taxi drivers I've come across in Batley after a nite out...

Never been a fan of Calderwood but that description could I imagine have been levelled at a great many more wingers over the years than merely at Calderwood.

Some in fact that have been regarded as far better players than he would ever have been considered to be, in a few cases classed as legends even!
