Quote ="Saddened!"That doesn't mean a thing. I'm not paid to develop Saints' squad and am entitled to change my opinion on a daily basis.
Maybe it's the quality of the coaching at Cas that has brought him on? Our young forwards all look terrible while they are at the club. Perhaps the likes of Ashurst and Dixon would look like they were human and not jellyfish if they had a better coach?'"
Touchy aren’t we!
Thank God you are not paid to develop the Saints squad, couldn’t imagine your very good at motivating people.
I do not like the derogatory terms you use when referring to our youngster perhaps this is a reflection on you rather than them but I don’t think there is any need for it.
I am of the opinion that Ashurst and Dixon should be dual registered or out on loan, why rotate Magennis,Dixon & Ashurst and play them for so few minutes – Dixon was developing last year under Potter and as most people state on here he looks to be going backwards – why not send him and Ashurst out on loan or dual registration and see what they can do when they are playing more minutes, I for one just do not understand the reasoning behind this as it is not beneficial for the club or the youngsters.
Jacob Emmitt came on leaps and bounds playing at Leigh, on dual registration, and now he is playing regular first team rugby albeit for another Super League club but I am in agreement we should have kept him. The kids that come through the academy are on pennies in comparison to the aussies, they are well worth a gamble.
