Quote exiledrhino="exiledrhino"Watkins for me is the most over rated player in super league. I've thought that for some time. Not sure how he is always first choice in internationals.
Yes, he has the ability to make very week teams look bad, but I can't remember the last time he stood out in a big game.
Tbf to him, I actually thought the beginning of last year he looked the best he has for a long time, but he really shouldn't be automatically on the teamsheet at the moment.'"
I've always liked Watkins since I saw him coming through the Academy.
However, I have to agree I think his reputation is in excess of his ability, if I'm honest. It's a bit unfair to judge him right now after a massive injury, which to me he clearly hasn't made full recovery from yet.
He looks far from the player which tore Cas apart a few seasons ago, which is very sad. I genuinely hope for him and the club that this knee gets right and he can get back to the level we know he's capable of.
