Come on guys, let's try and keep this thread to Joe Westerman and not run around throwing 'troll' accusations about anybody that doesn't rate him.
It's not Joe's fault that he's nothing like Scully or Farrell and the comparisons are as yet so far wide of the mark.
Just try to take it on the chin guys, Farrell and Scully were very special players and Westy has got a lot to do to have a valid comparison to either of those two legends.
Quote: Dico "I remember Sculthorpe as a kid at Warry and if I remember correctly he was used quite wide as you saw with Westerman last year.
I can definately see a comparison between the two although Scully was probably a bit more aggresive defensively if memory serves me right, it was a loong time ago..I was about 10
Sculthorpe played many of his early games as a stand-off!
Let's not get all rose tinted about Paul Sculthorpe, he took time to develop just like any other player and eventually became world-class.
Joe Westerman has massive potential and could develop along very similar lines as Sculthorpe but he will need better coaching than Terry Matterson seemed to offer him this year.
Dale Ferguson is a different kind of player and would no doubt hold his second row place down in any super league team. He will get better and could even make an international. However I think Joe has greater potential, Whether he will realise it or not is another matter.

Dont forget it was matterson who made him into the proffesional player he is now. Joe hasnt had his best year but he hasnt had a bad one, and considering his head injury at the start of the season and the fact that he will have been much more marked this year i think thats understandable, remember he's still only 19, so he is going to have over a decade of better years in front of him.
Quote: Dico "He's not exactly a troll from what i've seen on this thread. Just differs in opinion a bit and tbf he makes a fair assessment, Scully and Farrell were something else in this generation'"
He's got more usernames than HKR have fans, he is a troll and he'll be back under a different name.
