Based on a hypothesis that if fully fit and available, Daryl would pick from his current 1st team squad.
and based on the limited evidence I have, that in his position we already have quality I don't think Ben Gledhill is able to displace!

Load of Sh*t!!! From what ive seen take away Dickens And Morrison your pack is rather bab, Grayshon doesnt pull his weight, Tonks isnt fit, Ben has the abilty to displace all but 2 of your pack but then again its Fev theyll win World Club challenge next year

I was asked. I gave my opinion. That's what it is - my opinion. You don't like it, I couldnt give a toss!

Re: Ben Gledhill? : Thu Jun 23, 2011 9:18 pm  

After tonight, I still believe he would not get in the side if we had a fully fit squad.

Listen mate, you are not in any position to be pontificating on the honours other teams have or will win - now or in the near future!!
We both watch two teams who's successes have and will be very limited. If the licencing crapola doesn't go your way next month you may well find yourself watching the same "bab" down here in the sludge the RFL has forgotten!

Bit harsh and maybe you are too close to Ben to see the fuller picture?

To call the Fev pack bab is out of order to be fair.
We know Bens a good prospect but take a step back and look at the bigger picture, he needs
time to gel with a new team and he is still a young player.

Still feel the same after today?

Re: Ben Gledhill? : Sun Jul 03, 2011 3:54 pm  

fraid so Eric. On a day when everyone had a chance to shine - he did ok! An that's as much as he did against woeful opposition.
Not as good as what we have I'm afraid. He's helping us over the injuries and taking some pressure off the established forrads, but I can't see any longevity in his tenure at Fev.
Did you see the Barrow game last week? Did little there when he had chance to make a name for himself.
Fair play to the lad - he's sticking at it. He may shine eventually, but how long do you wait??

Re: Ben Gledhill? : Sun Jul 03, 2011 4:22 pm  

I am not sure which match you were watching. He played better than Tonks, offloaded and defended well. Massive hit also on their biggest player. Perhaps you do not want to see an improvement.

Re: Ben Gledhill? : Sun Jul 03, 2011 4:30 pm  

Hey, I'd love to see him dominate the opposition and be hailed as the greatest fev player of the last 20 years. You asked my opinion - I gave it. You don't like my answer there's little more I can do. Pehaps you only want to see a 'fantastic performance'?
He does put in a good defensive stint and I enjoyed the hit but I expected more from him v really shi_itty oposition. Again, did you see the barra game?
I will get the dvd in the week and particularly watch how he goes. Removed from the live empassioned performance sometimes you see more on dvd.
I remain unconvinced about him at this stage and I honestly believe if Haley n Morro were fit, now Matty Dale is back he wouldn't get in the 17 and would be back at Trinity. Just my thoughts. My opinions etc. If they differ from yours - c'est la vie!
