Exactly, give your youngsters a chance, surely there's plenty of talent up there.

It is a crap situation BUT at least we will never know what we have missed out on.

Maybe Les Catalans will make a move as the RFL and the UK Border Agency are doing their very best to fook things up for all the Heartland Clubs whilst ensuring the 'Developing' clubs can play by their own rules.

I wish you would start getting the talent that Whitehaven seem able to attract up their in Cumbria as I would much rather you do well than Haven, I think you are a bigger club plus I don't mind the trip, I hate going all the way to Whitehaven.

Yeah - i know. Just wanted the low down on his troubles at Barrow. Not a dressing room peace broker by any stretch of the imagination apparently.

I dont know the exact story & I have not heard an official account. A loss of a good talent but I believe he was a bit of a disruptive influence and disagreed with the coaching staff sometimes. Not headline news though sorry
