That is a fair point. He just never quite looks fully fit for me. I know there was talk of him playing injured last season (no doubts with his commitment). Just think possibly injuries and playing with them could have taken their toll. And he's no spring chicken. I just like England more tbh. Saying "I don't see what Huby gives" probably sounds harsher than I meant it to sound. I probably should have just said I prefer England for the reasons above

I think the thing here is that we're all absolutely spoiled for choice! I can't ever remember having so much choice (and quality) everywhere in the team. What a blinder played by MC and CC -
I can't wait for the season to start I even bought platinum membership!

As a guess, I wouldn't have thought that many at all with the number of interchanges we used to have. But he appears to me to be one of the more fit forwards that could potentially do it if needed. The blokes like the Duracell bunny.

It’s an urban myth. He never has

You got me, hate urban myths being ruined as well like I said though I didn't think there would be times he would have needed to, saying that I thought there might have been the odd game where he might have had to due to in-game injuries.

Do you think he'd be able to do the full 80 if we wanted to go that way this upcoming season DC?

Also, I think the drop to 8 interchanges makes that side of things that bit more interesting - will it make the difference some think on big packs such as ours, how CC will manage it and what players will fit what roles. Or will it make hardly any difference at all as I think?

I would say probably, but I guess the coaching staff don’t bring him off just for the fun of it. His energy levels must drop just like others do

No doubt, even the Sam Burgesses of the world get less effective as the game goes on and it requires tremendous fitness for a forward to do the full 80. As I've just added to my original post, it's just an interesting side note with the drop to 8 interchanges.

You and me too. his is the best squad we have in Super League and I can't wait to see Brough back for his kicking game tbh. Most excited I've been as a Wakefield fan for a season that I can remember. The club are doing a great job. Shame about the council.
