Quote: ThePrinter "Out of curiosity who do you think played worse than Achurch on Friday?'"
It isn't really relevent who played worse, as Achurch wasn't the worst, and therefore I would just be deemed as having a go at others. But to be fair I will answer, and IMO Sutcliffe and Watkins performances were worse. I am in full agreement on the errors Achurch made, but that just completely overlooks the good stuff he did do, and had someone like JJB for example done his same stats there would be praise rather than over the top critisism.
Like I said, is he value for money, no he isn't. Do I think it is worth perservering with him, no I don't. But he certainly is not the player portrayed on here either, just the scapegoat chosen for those who do not want to critisize other players.
And for the record, there was no comparison with Ablett above, it was a statement based on a particular example of Achurch on Friday, as tackle watching, something Ablett does often, and therefore used as an example. I could have used other players also, who do the same at times.
