Average at best imo. Too many errors and is injury prone.

What's wrong with Brett Seymour?

I think a coach like TS could do wonders with him.

Getting away from the Aussie press that seem to be on his back of late would do him good

Theres an aussie radio station called Triple M where they have podcasts on their website you can download to listen to the NRL discussion show with Gus Gould, I was listening to this a couple of weeks ago when he was talking about the Sharks, he reckoned Seymour was their most important player, said that they were making a mistake if they'd signed Barrett as a playmaker and he argued this had held the Dragons back when Barrett was there, because hes a good footballer running off a playmaker rather than a creative playmaker himself. Gus said that the Sharks were a very structured team who relied on set plays, and the one who had some ad-lib in him and could spark them was Seymour....sounds like he rated him highly.

Then again, Gus was always critical of Matt Orford in comparison to Monaghan, reckoned Manly (and NSW) should have had Monaghan as first choice halfback.

I've not watched too much of the Sharks this year, but I seen them a few times last year and I thought Seymour looked a top player. Not sure what's happened with him this year, though.

Brough decided to play for Scotland although probably wouldn't have been picked for England anyway but i could say the same about Briers, were is his bag full of international caps.

remember the way he played againest the ozzies he ripped them apart single handedly

I have little feeling Ts is looking at the Salford lad Myler

Why even mention the likes of Danny Brough on here when their have been calls on this forum for us to cut down on foriegners ? People have been calling for us to give English talent a go yet here we are again talking about giving another Johnny Foriegner a go, make your minds up!
