Yes I agree, we should start a we love terry newton fan club so Maurice may get the right idea and get him back super quick.
and that will help mickey higham's confidence wont it! :conf:
If any player has a doubt about his confidence they would be well advised to stay away from places like this.

FWIW I thought Newton had an excellent game last night - did he give a single penalty away? I am not joining the "Bring Terry Back" brigade because what's gone is gone. However, anyone who thinks either of our 2 hookers can perform like that wants their head examining.

Great game. Shame about another poo(r) refereeing performance again.Playing out to the flanks where the Saints halves are always loitering away from the work - not brain surgery is it, just effective...

I didn't think the ref was that bad - pedantic & fussy, maybe, but most of the penalties really couldn't have been ignored - I can understand refs being lenient with "technical" offences like PTBs, but most were for high shots, which IMO should always be penalised.

NO

Firstly for The bulls he's no. 13. Cunningham is much better (please don't hate me) and well higham and Godwin aren't that bad actually Higham is a test star and Godwin is Fantastic.

Newton has moved on so why can't we?

He's only #13 because Henderson was already in possession of the #9 shirt - the #13 shirt was vacated by Ben Harris when he moved to centre this season, and Langley wanted to keep #19 when he moved to loose forward.

OOPs! Yep...keep getting those 6's and 9's mixed up!
Same applies though, I meant he didn't want the 13 shirt when he changed to loose forward.
