I'd like to teach the world to sing....... in perfect harmony.:cartoons/WB05.gif



Quote: Keith Swiftcorn "36 NRL appearances in 8 years (2003-2010) suggest he's not a regular.

More like a shopping bag from Aldi or Netto, I'd say.'"


Oh dear Keith, you get worse.

Quote: Keith Swiftcorn "Prop Ryan Tandy joined the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs midway through the 2010 NRL season, after departing Melbourne in the wake of the Storm Salary Cap scandal. After 10 matches for the Storm in 2010, as well as their World Club Challenge win over Leeds, Tandy made his debut for the Bulldogs in their round 15 clash against the Gold Coast Titans at Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane, going on to feature in every one of the Bulldogs remaining 12 games for the season.'"


He was an NRL regular certainly last season, no matter what you want to dredge up.

Don't worry about avoiding temptation. As you grow older, it will avoid you! - Winston Churchill:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40515.jpg



Quote: leicester_rhino "Interesting stats, though meters per carry or total carrys are not always indicative of the quality of a carry'"


True. But unless the player only ever comes on as a sub against weak opposition then the stats taken over a whole season or several seasons you do get a pretty good idea as they must even out.

I am surprised you are still having this argument. Bailey is never going to be a meter maker as long as he has an hole in his botty. His game is all about something else.

With that in mind, as you have already put previously, until Peacock returns Burgess is a far more important player to the first team for the very reason of making yards.

Who is arguing?

People can debate without having a tantrum you know, naming no names of course.

Another sweeping statement.

You could argue that Leeds need to focus more on the defensive side, as they let in far too many points last season (cheap scores at that). Rolled into this handling errors and silly penalties gifting field position and again putting pressure on our line.

Strong defence is the platform, then you can worry about scoring.

Sort the defence out and generally you have very little to worry about.

Oh and for the record, this isn't arguing this is just a counter view, if that's ok with you?

Gotcha - the poster with more holes than Jean Charles de Menezes.

The issue with Burgess isn't "missed" tackles, it's not even getting close to putting in a tackle because he lacks lateral movement and has feet of concrete.
