He'll soon be propping for Saints, don't worry

Robbo has not got the best kicking game but he is very capable of kicking a ball. He might not be as good as brough but I know robbo is working very hard on his kicking game and with brough and thorman there to help I am sure he will be ok.

Brough played stand off a few games last season and if he goes to 2nd receiver then it means he has that extra 2 seconds and we all know what he can do with time and ball in hand.

Gaskell has been given the number 20 shirt at saints- so it doesn't look as if NB sees him in the starting lineup. Shame as he could have been playing every week for us!

seems brown didnt want us to have him

nevermind, robbo and brough is still very good combo

Brearley it appears saints don't want to allow decent players to go and improve their opposition-perhaps a case of once bitten NB?

Who knows we might even see Broughy still controlling from first receiver and Robbo a pass further out trying to put people into spaces.That scenario would take a lot of pressure off Luke's kicking game,and he could look to show & go as he is very quick off the mark as we know.
