Pretty much sums up my feelings. Started the season well at 6, got injured and then got shifted around. Did his best at wing but was targetted by teams.

When he did get a chance at 6 he never really looked convincing except Wire (A) and unfortunately was behind Obst & Martin. Could well turn out to be a cracking signing if Brown can get him settled in one spot

now then --tread lightly!!

Apologies I thought you had brought in Drew as your back up hooker and as for Kev Brown I was under the impression his best position is at centre, looks like i am wrong again

Glad to have been able to put you right re our options at half back. Sorry if the facts interfere with your ill informed and ignorant view that we only have Robbo.

Now if your fellow wakey fan can enlighten us on the 'blessings' you have in the halves...They are not readily apparent.

In his season at Widnes he started like a house on fire and made the fullback position his own.. was confident and had a great turn of pace and became a standout player.
By the end of the season he seemed to lose his confidence and you could see he wasn't comfortable out on the pitch. Sadly thats how many at Widnes will remember him.
I was supprised to see him make the step up to SL and have 2 good seasons.. so it looks like he has regained his confidence and I wish him all the best.

Still as pleasant as ever old girl, a merry xmas and a happy new year to you. I hope you have a good season next year

There was I chatting to C13 when....................lo and behold.......................................... there was a gentle tug on the line ........and.................. Yeah!!




Meanwhile ...on another bank of the lake --we were strengthening the squad from the Wakey supermarket half back shelf and hoping things work out as well as other recent signings !!

Over to you Nathan !! Watch this space!

Happy to have given you some information about the Giants. It may stop you making foolish comments. Do lets us know when you find some factsabout your own team.

This is a rugby league forum. Your first post on here and the comments above have nothing to do with the Giants. Why not give us your sober analysis of Grix, his skill set or where you think he can do a job for the Giants.

Back to topic. Whereever Grix plays it is evident that one skill he has is a kicking game. This is true of Drewy and Kyle Wood (if he joins us). This will add an important dimension in 2010.

Without wanting to get into another Wakey/Hudds war, how do you come up with that??

Not saying you are wrong, he may well have a very good kicking game....but that was not seen at Wakey for the simple reason he was not on kicking duty......l would hazard a guess he kicked less than Obst and Martin.

2009
Kicks in General Play

Tony Martin: 66
Sam Obst: 61
Scott Grix: 39

Cheers for doing the work for me......l am just lazy!!!

I think blessed was probably the wrong word to use.
Personally i think Wakefield have plenty of cover in the halves and Grix was unlikely to make a starting spot his own.

Dont really know what that tells you about the kicking game of Grix.Most of his game time was on the wing.
Although when he did feature in a more pivotal role,his kicking game was less than ordinary.

it was just the figures based on Simons suggestion. Don't read anything into them.

Is it a secret who these people are..blessings or otherwise. With Martin/Grix/Drew/Rooney out and Jeffries in I may have missed some signings.

Tony Martin was not ideally a recognised stand-off as I remember he was shunted there for cover for several games but as usual he couldn't stay injury free,He is an out and out centre.

Wakefield have a young kid called Cain Southernwood who looks like he'll break through this year and he's a specialist stand-off.

Rooney went stagnent,Drew showed his class but again injury marred his season and the ideal halfback partnership was Obst and Brough.

Latu and Newton will fight for the hooking role while it will be Jeffries/Ost and Brough within the halfs and the young kid backing them up.

Good luck with Grix as he can look a real good signing if he can hold down a position of his own.

. That is why the 'blessings' description seemed OTT.

Like I said earlier ----there I was chatting to C13 ....................

Did I dial the wrong number ???







Instead of butting in - why dont you just stick to putting your points forward - and allow us to respond/dispute em -- or ignore you - eh?
It is a RL forum - not the RAF!!
Thats a good fella/girl !
Now run along and play nicely !!

If you want to chat to Code 13, with no rugby comments, as in your first post on the thread...pm him. If you need to write about fishing or lines or the RAF or wrong numbers then go and do it somewhere else. I am sure you can find forums where discussing the RAF is 'on topic'.

This is a rugby league forum and the thread is on Scott Grix. Do you have anything to say on the actual topic?

Now Now-- I sense a teeny weeny feeling of rejection cos you werent included


Dont worry MG - my feelings for you havent changed!

Ooooooooh - youre so forceful !!-- Life wouldnt be quite the same without yer!!

Your post has nothing to do with rugby league.

If you need to tell people about about your teeny weeny feelings then find another forum. Prattling on about such things when the thread is about Scott Grix is pitiful.

This is another thread that you two have derailed.

It is up to the mods to moderate the board not you two. But when you start bickering like two people in an old folks home it becomes boring.

Ignore each other, do not comment on each other, do not goad each other, pretend the other does not exist.

FINAL WARNING IN PUBLIC any more and you will be enjoying a hoiliday from the board.
