he wasnt fit,if i remember correctly he was on crutches.

No he wasn't, he had a fitness test the day before the final and I doubt he did it on crutches. I don't think he played for us between the semi and the final. I think we'd have won it if he'd played

He was on crutches getting on the team coach to wembley.

Fuck it even sounds like your suggesting agar didn't play him because he didn't want to win!

I'm a new member of the forum, but for what it's worth I think we need a marquee scrum-half signing for 2012 - somebody who can have a similar impact on the club that the likes of Richard Swain, Stephen Kearney and Jason Smith had. With the amount of money that should be available on the cap at the end of next season we need to push the boat out and make a real statement of intent for 2012. Whether we do or not remains to be seen I suppose.

So we have a "book smart" saying if we sign up players or not

I think you've had too many VB's mate. It was reported at the time that both horne and dykes could have played but were both massive risks and that agar took the option to risk horne rather than dykes. I don't know if dykes was on crutches on the bus as I was at the game, not watching on TV

totally agree, hope the club are looking at the long term, a lot of players off contract at the end of next season and a major re-build will be required. there will be a lot of money available, we need to be doing all we can to bring in someone who we can build a side around for the next 4-5 years.

I have t, it tastes like .

He was pictured on crutches getting on the team coach.

dykes had his crutches with him inside the ground too.

correct.

I went to the game,but i know someone who went to see the team off from brantingham and he text to tell me he was on crutches.

He didn't even play again for us, so from passing a fitness test and agar refusing to play him to been injured a week later.

Now it makes sense.

They had a better win ratio with 1 or the other (and that's either player) than they did with both. Many people thought they were too similar to play together and the team had less balance.

It was reported at the time that he wasn't even fit enough to walk around wembley with the rest of the players, he had to look on sitting in the stand listening to his ipod.

Good year at the bookies for him
