Always thought he was quite strong in the tackle.
Maybe misses a few, but don't suppose we are getting him in for his defensive qualities.

Must admit I thought the same; doesn't shirk in defence from what I remember, probably did more work than a half should though.

As a general consensus of opinions on this board both Albert Kelly and Lee Radford got slated. Will be the odd exception but as a whole I am vindicated in saying as such.

Of course he is keen to come, he's currently unemployed.

I hope it works out for him, RL needs more creative players and flashes of brilliance as opposed to drop offs and kicking games. If he could have the right mentality I'd have him above Sneyd. But there is a very slim chance of that. I hope Radford doesn't try and coach it out of him either as I suspect he doesn't have the temperament to control a game, or even play to a game plan.

Another classic case of PRSD.

Nope, but nice try, think it was Easthullfc, but think he was talking about your current squad.

If you are doing to try and make someone look silly, do your research or you will look an idiot, which for you It seems to be easy.

I'm sure I have seen him make some decent tackles albeit on TV.

It's a myth about him been a poor defender the thing is if you look at his stats he may have a lot of missed tackles but he probably tackles more than any other half in the league I've always thought him a very strong tackler and probably does to much defending

Exactly what I thought.

Strong tackler. Especially head on.
