1/3 of the season gone

Who's made Giant strides from last season squad? Has anyone gone backwards from last season? Are you happy how things are going so far? Who's been the best signing so far for 2010?

brough lol

Fa'alogo best signing so far for me.
Best overall year so far? No contest there as Andy Raleigh is having a stormer.
Best improved player is Leroy.

I would rather say who's been the best signing at the end of the year, when we have had time to judge them. Fa-alogo is just starting to get into his stride this last two or three games, Grix is getting very involved as well, so he might turn out to be the best of all with his ability to play many positions, Gilmoure is a proven class act and is beginning to show that class, And then there is Brough who could potentially outshine them all, It depends how well he fits into the team ( not been here long enough to say yet ) He showed yesterday how good it is to have a good kicking game.
Without wishing to lessen the class or efforts of any of our players, most of them have many equals or betters with one or two exceptions, ( dont think there is a better fullback than Hobson at the moment ) Leroy and Lunt also are up among the best in super league, and could very well get better still.
I have said before that Players like Brough and Long are not common ( although Long is on the way down now ) So I'm hoping to be saying at the end of the season that Brough has been the best signing, cause then he will be fulfilling his potential.

agree wi most o that Bo --but dont think that Hobson fella is any better that Brett or Cudjoe!!

I think Gilmour has been a brilliant signing. Rarely makes a mistake, plays 80 minutes and is an example to all with his attitude.

I am happy with how things have been going, only one disappointing performance against Saints. Cudjoe, Fatz, Griffin and Larne have come on leaps and bounds from last season.

Larne Patrick has improved no end, Grix looks to be bargain of the season and fa aloga and Gilmour have added the experience and class to the team, Broughy come end of season will be another who we will be singing the praises of.
Raleigh has stepped upto the mark in moving from 2nd row to Prop and Aspey has proved me wrong as didn't think he would get much gametime but he has played and consistently well at that!!!!!

Might have known you would pick up on that. You have to admit though he had choice

Aspy has been awesome. Definitely worth another contract as a back rower.
