I thought it was bizarre that Butterworth went to Hudders where they have no reserves. He’s getting no game time at all. He’d have been better staying with us as he’d probably be starting hooker now with Wildie in the halves. Given Flanagan’s contract runs out at the end of the year young Reiss could have been a regular with us in 2020. Instead he’s trying to get a loan deal to a club at our level anyway and in the meantime he’s twiddling his thumbs.
Just goes to show the grass ain’t always greener at a SL side. Lads like him need to be playing.
Chisholm doesn’t look the player he was before his injury, he’s not got the same pace off the mark and without that X factor he’s not got the same game management qualities as Lilley or Keyes. I just hope Keyes can recover from his injury worries. I’ve high hopes for Rowan Milnes who isn’t far away from being the ideal stand off for us soon.
Yep a shame about Butterworth as he had a huge skill set. I really wouldn't leave the Bulls if I was a young player. We are probably one of the best clubs at developing and improving young players. I wonder where James Bentley, Luke Hooley, Joe Brown would have been now had they stayed with us. All huge potential. Its a scandal that Butterworth isn't playing.
