I love you knocker, but come on , a think frank deserves better than that , for what he brought to the club
I#m sure off the field he was a lovely bloke and many seemed to like him, on the field though name me one game that he took by storm or was the major catalyst for a win?
He had a few moments granted but as I said at the time, coming on for 10 minute stints because he wasn't fit caned us at times and for the most part was innocuous and a massive let down. When he left I pointed out Thompson (who we just let go) made same amount of tackle busts(or clean breaks, I forget which) and around 40-50% more tackles than FP. Making metres because you've come on for the last 10 minutes of a half doesn't really give him credit IMHO.
Sorry but his affability and fun loving nature doesn't make up for the fact he was bang average on the field, we certainly didn't miss him because we would have lost more important players to stay under the cap given we'd already lost JA and DH to keep us under even with FP going.
