What do people expect from someone who is probably our 7th choice second rower, in a salary capped sport? Wind it in please, whilst he might never be anything other than average, he's prepared to put his body on the line for the club and I'll go with that.

Absolutely!
Why on earth he's getting so much grief is beyond me. |

Two teams give everything, not much between both teams. Our scramble/last ditch defence probably won the day. With reference to Walters, with a ridiculously low salary cap you will always get a huge difference in skill levels.
Just watched radfords post match interviews, I have respect for him, he could have quite easily had a moan about not getting fifty fifty calls or rub of the green etc etc. He choose not to, which is great credit to him.

Totally agree. FC were missing a few quality forwards and will be in the mix again at the end of the year. Great to see Myler, Watkins and briscoe combining so well on the right. we know Moon can play on the left, so good signs. Radford's interviews are great.The one last week about watts was as straightforward as you can get. Regarding Walters, I thought it was best game I have seen him play and If McDermott thought anyone could do a better job now , they would have played in his place. |

Walters Is a liability imo. The stats may say he made 38 tackles but they dont say how many were dominant or effective, which wasnt many. He was often left clinging to a leg after being ran over or through. They will go down on the stat sheet as a tackle but in reality it was poor defence, added to his non- existant offensive contribution it was yet another poor display from him.

JJB, Ablett, Delaney, Ward, Ferres and Keinhorst would probably all get selected ahead of Walters. So as 7th choice 2nd row he’s obviously not going to be international class, but he puts the effort in and does a job, he doesn’t deserve the level of criticism he gets. How would our 7th choice centre get on?

| Quote Charlie Sheen="Charlie Sheen"Farrell is easily world class. He's no Dan Carter, but he's a better all round player than Wilkinson was, and he has a great partnership with Ford. Saying that, it's been funny to see them knocked down a peg in this 6Ns
Anyway, back to the interesting stuff, and Friday's game. It was patchy, but we were pretty clinical near the Hull line which was quite refreshing, although we've let teams off the hook too many times in games this season, but we've defended very well so far, although Saints will be a huge step up next week, but hopefully we can get a couple more players back next week - I think we'll need it.
On an individual level, I thought Watkins, Garbutt and Myler were particularly outstanding. I honestly don't think there's many props in SL I'd swap Garbutt for, if he was English, he'd be considered a star. I also though Golding had a great game too. If Walker had a game like that people would be fawning over it. Delaney has also had a sollid start to the season.
On the other side of the coin, I thought Ormondroyd (again) was terrible in defense. He'll never make a regualr SL player if he doesn't drastically improve in this area.'"
Completely disagree re- Farrell/Wilkinson.
Agree re-Watkins Myler & Garbutt i can see a good link building on that right edge.  |
