Last year of his contract. Can't see another one.

We then have to sign another key back or keep Chaplin or Batchelor or use Elton.

Astbury will get 2 more.
 
A draught horse would run him down . Leppa did not want him & the reason is quite obvious.
 
Huh? Don't get the hate?

He played a very solid game tonight - even if it was due to the wet weather slowing everyone else down to his top speed
 
Played with intensity. Attacked the contest, the ball. Broke lines. Used the ball forward far more than usual. His best game for the club. Earned his spot.
 
Yeah, I was about to say he played well. What are these other jokers smoking? (other than ziffens, who is clearly a chromer.)

I have been a big and relentless critic, but he was OK. Must have been told not to hesitate, becuase he has always done it, and he didn't do it tonight.

That's what I liked, snake. I'm not sure he's got a lotta scope but with so many of our senior players outmanned Astbury was one who chose to lift.
 
Was very good. We need him to stay on the park and to keep that standard as there is no one else coming through.
