A few things wer e clear from Nobby, and agai simple poitns:

Every young player is different and develops differently.

Noble and the other coaches cover more rugby time with them than you, me or any other on this forum.

Theyy are best placed to make the judgement on the readyness, and also how long they stay there.

Well said Nobby.

So all our players developed later than the rest of the RL world?

As I say it was not convincing and anybody can use duty of care. Trust me I work in Education.

Young players salaries have increased.

I think its become clear now if it hasn't been for a while that Lenagan was wrong to make that comment.

I was always expecting 2010 to be the earliest when we could expect to be
challenging Leeds and Saints again as this is when we can really do something with the squad.

I still can't help asking the question though of where's all the money gone for 09? Barrett, Calderwood, Higham and Colbon gone. All gone on Riddell and Roberts?

...and contract extensions apparently

I cannot recall sorry. The one at the Deanery?

I actually enjoyed listening to Noble far more than anybody else there. He needs a forum just for playing issues. I just cannot accept him using Joel as an example of planning. Joel did not suffer when he came in under Millward. He even had offloading skills then. In the Alliance pre his Widnes loan, Joel was in awesome form. It was partly interrupted by injury when he broke a bone in his hand defending himself from Matty Smith but he was ignored when he was in great form. He lost motivation. Noble publicly stated that he did not expect Joel to play in 2008 and if Lockers had not been injured he would not have played. The reason he got better and better was that he got a run of games to adjust to the pace of SL.

Will Lee Mossop play in 2009? No. He will go out on loan. Lee was dropped in favour of Tuson in 2008 and the reason, he played too much like a prop in his previous SL game.

yeh was deanery mate!! iv actually spoken to you alot on other forum aswell!!


well i suppose well find out this yr how true noble is to his word!!

The lady concerned is a great supporter and does not deserve such criticism. At least she speaks.

I fully hope you enjoy the Championship. Feel free to ask for details of any venues


Don't know why people thought any different about the Stadium usage to be honest. DW owns the stadium so he gets to dictate what is what. It's common sense really.

I would hope common sense would prevail (even for him) and that he would request the FA Cup game to be played on the Sunday.

Won't hold my breath though!

Education Trust me I've worked a high as you can in education and that doesn't make me a beter judge of players.

Our players aren't developing later than other players over in this country, maybe in Australia but the hole infrastructure is different.

We will indeed. I would love for it to happen and for our team to improve.

Every young player bar Sam has been offered to a club on loan.
