YOUNG UN Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 May not be a fantastic attacking half back but when he's on with his field kicking he can turn a game. Remember him kicking us into submission at Belle Vue a few seasons ago for Sheffield. Potts and Guzdek didn't know what day it was. Welcome aboard.

Welcome to the club Simon Brown. Yep. Certainly with us for the right reasons, unlike the mercaneries that have signed for other clubs that we choose not to mention. That doesn't always go according to plan, does it? Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

il cattivo Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Not blessed with pace,however could be an astute signing just for the fact you need a halfback to guide and direct the team around.if the lad wants to be there that's half the battle....its just what you needed. "you never win a game unless you beat the guy in front of you. The score on the board doesn’t mean a thing. That’s for the fans. You’ve got to win the war with the man in front of you. You’ve got to get your man." - Vince Lombardi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9' oller Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Was suited when he signed for batley a bit back but was as effective as Dale cardoza and showed as much effort as a 25 stone cake lover at weight watchers 'Shaw cross juniors, Birkenshaw, Mirfield, Heckmondwike Panthers, Stainland Stags and then the Heavy woolen donkeys...

distantdog Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Didn't think he stayed long enough at Batley for anyone to reach a conclusion about him. I do however remember his organising ability and an astute drop goal which ultimately helped us beat Keighley. I think he is a decent player. Whether he becomes a decent signing remains to be seen but l think he could very well do under Greenwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crown Flatter Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 We all know about his kicking abilities, I just hope he can create something as a half back should. Legs, Dews, Legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOGFATHER Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 If the RFL follow suit with the NRL and trial the 20/40 rule, he might prove to be one of the best signings in the league this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
