Wish him all the best what a player, so glad we had chance to see him play for us, truely world class.

I remember my Mum and Dads next door neighbour (whos a stains fan) saying he met him in the gym once and said he was one of the most humble and genuinely nice guys he'd ever met.

<t>I think Phil Gould is spot on the money and i love to see someone from rugby admin either here or abroad get it in the neck.<br/> <br/> What i take out of that argument is, if what the admin guy is saying is "good" for the sport, why should any team have a youth set up. Like why do harlequins and...

I think he got off lightly and i still think it deserved a ban on the basis, had say Ryan Bailey done the same to Sam T i would be calling for a 1 match ban. He made little attempt to do anything but drop on Mylers back, dangerous and silly play and he should count himself lucky

<t>Appealing hasn't always worked out well for wigan players, not remember newton in the long face arrangement charge. He got a ban of like 8 weeks appealed and they upped it to 12 or something ridiculous. <br/> <br/> Like i said it was a stupid flop by Joel, While i dont buy into the whole "refs ha...

To be fair Joel was far too late on Myler to expect not to get done, myler had grounded the ball and was on the floor for about 2 seconds before Joel hit him, very very silly play

While that is true, most people would say the Hooker/Halfback role is now interchangable if you look at players like Monahagn who was orginally a 7, and our very own lulu, plus regardless of position, Finch is a better standard of player than Riddell

Trouble is if you had an injury you lose that match fitness and the period of the first month or so after the injury while your building back up your resistance to impact can be dodgy and make you prone to re-occurences of the injury.
