Can't supply link, but another poster mentioned Billy C and you deffo replied regarding size.
Anyway I'm really pleased in how the selections framed on Saturday and look forward to them making a good number of games as the season progress
No I didn’t, if you mean Billy Conway then I’m even more baffled because he was the ultimate example of a player for whom size didn’t matter.
Sorry Bowes size is not something I’d make an issue of, certainly not if he was playing hooker. I think you are confused but in an attempt to be conciliatory try this.
Let’s go back 18 month and somebody states that Bowes should be playing regular at nine after a good debut. I say no because he’s not physically or mentally
ready yet and he will get battered and will end up at Dewsbury if we are not careful. If I’d have posted that I’d have been 100% correct imho.
I don’t actually think I ever posted that but it would be more likely than ‘he’s not big enough or skilful enough’. It’s all about context.
It’s a season on from that and things change.
I actually think I said the Dewsbury bit about Brad Walker at LF.
