If Brough is fit he will play, just as Grix walked back in after injury.

that would be - after the recent performances - disappointing.

Its Chesters call to make at the end of the day...

What Jowitt has done is added another string to his bow and given us a real boost knowing that he can do an excellent job in the halves. He’s also put Brough under pressure to perform if he does get the nod and he’ll know that.

Think Brough has been unlucky because it looked like he’d worked really hard on fitness and was looking sharp before his injury.

Also, what he hasn’t done much since he came back is played behind a fully fit team and a strong pack getting us on the front foot...

Competition for places all across the park is no bad thing...I’ve no issue with Brough getting the nod if he’s fully fit...as I wouldn’t with Arona over Kopczak or Fifita for whoever he comes in for...the only problem would be if Brough doesn’t play to the level Jowitt has and keeps his place...it’s a great position for Chester to be in and long may it continue...much better than scratching around to try and get 17 fit players on the park like large parts of last season!

Agree with the first bit, not so sure about the second.....
As for Koppy, in my opinion, I think he's done well and Tini is a different player and position.

Too true. I can't see much forward vision from Chester if he takes this route. Max performance permitting needs an extended run in this position until at least Rocky is back. We can't possibly see 2021 with Danny Brough as halfback can we?

That’s my fear. Brough under big pressure to perform when he comes back in. If he doesn’t that will make Chester’s position weaker.

We wont...
Contract expires end of 2020.

Re: Jowitt : Sun Mar 08, 2020 7:43 am  

certainly be a headache for Chester when all fit and chomping on the bit to get a game ,but good for the club long term that we have quality half’s waiting to step up when needed .

Re: Jowitt : Sun Mar 08, 2020 9:14 am  

If Jowitt does not get a run in the team , he should move on . Never seen a player do so much and get so little reward . Been treated shockingly by the club since Grix came. Way in front of Crowther and Bachelor in skill

Think thats a bit unfair as they are different players in different positions.
