Andy Ellis : Sun Sep 16, 2012 5:52 pm  

Just heard today that he's signed for Fev for next season. Think he'll be a big loss

Surely not, he's been immense when he's played! Still if he's after first team RL, then with Aiton coming back and Agar favouring Wood as an impact player then maybe he will have to go to pastures new to get it.

I'd have thought a couple of SL teams might have gone in for him though tbh.

This would be lunacy IMO.

Re: Andy Ellis : Sun Sep 16, 2012 6:06 pm  

Ellis and Aiton next year would be a very good and varying partnership indeed.

This is no reflection on wood who I think has gone well this year but his defence has been costly resulting in opposition yard gains.

Would be a shame if he were to leave.

I prefer Ellis to wood but if the coach has it the other way round then I'm prepared to back him. Not got much wrong this seasoning my eyes even when the hypocrites were calling for his head afte half a dozen games

i heard this last night from a fev fan along with foxy, i know there only rumours at this stage but ellis in paticular to me would be a big loss, but not sure he in agars plans doesnt seem to get much game time inmho, but what do i know i hope the rumours are wrong tho

Re: Andy Ellis : Sun Sep 16, 2012 6:16 pm  

Really like Ellis, but 3 into 2 don't go, my choice would be Aiton and wood, there is legs in the fox rumour but lets wait and see who's coming and going before making judgements

And what Fox rumour is that?

Andy Ellis pass accuracy and speed from the play the ball is second to none and has been very instrumental in our 7 from 7 wins. He does lack a bit of pace though, it would be a shame if we couldnt hold on to him but balancing the books and squad members is a very tricky job to do..

Re: Andy Ellis : Sun Sep 16, 2012 7:12 pm  

Would be crazy to let go IMO......

His distribution is first class....gives Tim Smith the extra few seconds to show his class....I think he'd be better utilised coming off the bench to speed that play the ball area up when there's a few more tiring bodies on for Smith to exploit more...... and after Aiton has done his stuff.....

Kyle Wood has also done excellent this back end.....i'd keep Wood to work closely alongside Tim Smith and get him back playing 7 like he did when in the academy with us.....he couldn't have a better mentor anywhere to learn the game from.....when we inevitably lose Smith further down the line then hopefully he will have brought Kyle along nicely......it would also give the option of covering for possible injury to either Aiton or Ellis.....especially with the loss of bright prospect Ryan Wright....

Suppose a lot depends on the future at the club for the likes of Sykes, Wildie & John aswell.....
