He is a great tackler, but has lost his mojo in attack. We are better off with Lee and Fisher until he finds it.

I thought he'd step up this year given he's off contract at the end of the season.....he's level with Rob Purdham on number of club appearances now IIRC...I seem to have more fonder memories of Purdo than Chad.....maybe he's past his sell by date? Injury free, he may well become the most "capped" Bronco in our SL history.....an achievement that shouldn't go by without a mention.

Fisher/Lee will go well together

Randall is consistent hard working. Think age and injuries may be catching up with him

Is James cup-tied?

He played for Swinton against Toulouse so I presume so.

I liked Randall in the past, he was a good player, but the last few seasons he has been awful, and we have had better hookers playing for us. And for his defence, even that has declined this year, I remember a couple times watching a match and watching him fall off a few more tackles then he used to. He's almost on par with the rest of the team defensively now.

Mendeika has been charged with using his knees in the tackle against St Helens on Saturday. Hopefully he won't get a 1 or 2 match suspension given that he is only with us for 3 more weeks. http://www.londonbroncosrl.com/news/491 ... X6kC-DbJMI

IMHO it doesn't seem deliberate or that bad on SL TV highlights.

X6kC-DbJMI I wouldn't be too concerned, he was awful on Saturday and offers no more than Channing (little).
