Quote: G1 "Pretty disingenuous to dig up a quote that had nothing to do with Friday's match.
'"


Of course, he wouldn't be the first to do it would he.

Quote: G1 "As for David's ratings, spot on aside from too high a mark for Eastwood and too effusive in his praise for Kirke.'"


So it wasn't spot on? eusa_clap.gif

Quote: Gotcha "He was certainly dead on his feet, and he certainly did miss a couple of tackles that should have been made. But you can not ignore the rest of his game because of it.

I keep hearing on these threads about the incidents that stats do not record, and game changing moments. Plenty came through Kylie on Friday, his influence on that game and Leeds performance was huge. Take his contribution out of that game, and the result would have been completely different IMO.'"


I would agree, his big hits kept lifting the fans and players.

Its a difficult one. A big hit can be very significant point in the game, and affect confidence on the part of both players. However, a big hit does not often bring a direct reward in terms of scores. Missed tackles, poor defensive movemnet do, and IMO outweigh some big hits

Quote: tvoc "The point it rebutted didn't appear to only relate to Friday's match and your post was only used as an example of where Kirke had received criticism on this forum.'"

I thought it did in context.

However, whilst I am flattered, I am not the only one to post criticism of Kirke and, indeed, there was plenty of it from me and other posters relating to this Fridays match so, again, I wonder what your motive was in specifically dredging up an older post specifically from me?

Tell the truth, you have a man crush on me don't you?

Quote: Serge A. Storms "For me it is three things;
1. He lack of game time - he only plays 50% of the game at most - compare his game time to Bailey?
2. The number of times he makes a tackle but cannot get back in the line - on three occasions it took him 3 tackles to get back in the defensive line
3. The number of times he is exposed in the middle is a worry - Grix waltzed past him as if he wasn't there for the try?
4. Not playing the ball correctly 20 metres from your own line is unforgivable for a SL player - this is not the first time

Yes he made a huge impact ball in hand - but that should not obsure the tackling issues he has.

Just watch for the above during the Bradford game'"


On point 1 I would say his game time was handled correctly by McClennan to get the best out of him to help the team.

Point 2 is a fair observation. But you fail to take into account the effecitvness of the tackle made. Some of those tackles were huge, and influenced our performance accordingley. I take your point about time taken to get back, but would imagine other players may well have been the same in that position.

Point 3 is very unfair. Grix did not just waltz round Kylie, he waltzed round a couple of others also. It was a very soft try to conceede as a team, not an individual.

Point 4 again whilst correct, is unfair. He isn't the first to do that, and nor will he be the last. And he certainly wasn't the only Leeds player to make errors in his own 20 on Friday.

Your post comes across David as though you accept the big runs he made, but have failed to see the huge tackles he made, concentrating only on the couple of missed ones.

I still think his influence in that result was far greater than you give him credit for.

In your previous posts you referred to the same Leeds player as the Captain of the Starship Enterprise?

Do you now admit that not only do you not seem to know anything about RL but you are also a sci-fi fantasist who would love to receive some alien Jim love?

You're my hero.

I've come to realise over the years, if you want to find an 'honest warts and all appraisal' of an individual then entering 'G1' into the search function saves you both time and effort.

'Bailey shouldn't get near a Leeds shirt again this season, abysmal and gash' being other examples of telling it like it is in your view, which I respect.

The 'soft as s[ihi[/it' post was used purely as an example (be flattered if you like), but if there has been a better one (in the context of back-to-back-to-back's comment) then I haven't seen it.

I've no idea what on earth you're talking about, buffoon.
