    Aw right! Grand so! Just wondering what was the story. Did he do well? Do you think he will get the no 1 jersey?

    I don't think he will. Rogers will hold his position I think.

    Ditto, i know very little about Rouse but I don't see him gettin ahead of Rogers any time soon, barring injury.

    Alvin Rouse isn't anywhere near the keeper that Gary Rodgers is.
    The ball is round and has many surprises.

    I dont think Rodgers is great so is Rouse a poor keeper?

    IMO Rouse is a reasonable first division keeper and no more than that.

    The little I know about Rouse is that he's meant to be a tiny bit dodgy. Going on last season Rogers was very reliable imo.

    Rouse is an unreal shot stopper, the rest of his game is dodgy though. Always had brilliant games against us for some reason

    If memory serves me right, he frustrated us quite a bit too when playing with the Ben Bulben Boys

    Why have we got 2 very average goalkeepers it seems a waste of money?

    Who here thinks Rogers is only average? Granted he had a bit of a dodgy start last year, but with goughie training him he has come on leaps and bounds, and I think he is an excellent keeper now. I for one am more than happy to have Rogers in goals.

    You have answered the question yourself he was dodgy at the start and ended up average at the end of the season. now we have according to other posters got a dodgy keeper as back up?. Hardly top 6 material

    Gary was brilliant in the second half of last season and im quite happy to have him as first choice. I wont make up my mind about Rouse until I actually see him play. The negativity is astounding sometimes.

    1 minute our keeper is off to England the next he only good enough for the first division and our other keeper is somewhere between dodgy and brilliant. At least the matter is now cleared up.
