Man of Kent Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 What a coup. With Chase and Gavin Henson, they might only lose by 80 now. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scubby Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Chase and Henson what on earth could go wrong? What's Willie Mason up to these days? There could be a welcome for him in the hillsides? 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 What a signing, he can’t come cheap though, does anyone know if they have someone new putting few quid in? Good luck to them regardless. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a truly incredible decline. In 2011 he won the Man of Steel, 10 years later he will be playing in front of maybe about 100 people and getting battered by semi pro players putting at least 60 points a game on his team.

moorside roughyed Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 If anything else, him and Henson will definitely get people's attention. They might even put a few more bums on seats come next season. Hopefully. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM2010 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Two big names to get people talking about RL in Wales and the West Wales Raiders in particular. If it increases their profile and gets a few more through the turnstiles then it can only be seen as a positive. They might even help them win a game or two and maybe attract one or two more signings 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkw Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) Brilliant stuff by the Welsh, it's a great story for their half backs if nothing else. I wish nothing but good on our sheep loving brethren, had some belting away days with them. Edited October 9, 2020 by dkw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His drop off in form was staggering. Played at Fev in the cup in 2012. Breaking Tangi Ropati's jaw was his only significant contribution to that game. He was bloody awful and the slide continued.
