| Quote: Top Saint "I agree he can make breaks, but once through a quality stand-off would convert a high proportion of those breaks. Gaskell blows far too many chance by taking the wrong option or ignoring support runners and going himself. For any half back of any age that is a major and fundamental flaw in their game and would be extremely difficult to coach once a player reaches the first team. This skill is instinctive and his instinct is to go it alone, probably because all through the junior ranks he was good enough to get away with it.'"
It's because of opinions like yours that we have to endure boring rugby. Gaskell is a player who plays to make something happen, if he didn't try different options and stuck to constantly doing and initiating the same choices then maybe he'd fit in better at Saints at present because ALL the players are so predictable. Just like we saw against Wigan last week when they shut Roby down and anticipated what Saints would do before they even did it themselves. Making errors and wrong decisions is the best way we learn and I see Gaskell has made more positive play than negative. He should be playing in the first team, there's no doubt about that, but Rush has made it obvious that there's some personal stuff going on and has frozen him out. Now, when you mention that he 'ignores support runners and goes in himself', it makes me realise you don't have a clue what you are talking about. |

| Quote: SaintsFan "Yeah. I rather think, though, that Burrow will be quite a handful for TP. Wasn't it TP's legs Burrow ran through in the GF to score his try that everyone kept going on about?
I'm not confident myself. Not only will Burrow be back to cause us problems but they now know how we play. Last time out they were expecting a team that was struggling and we blasted them from the start. We won't have that element of surprise this time and after our showing against Wigan they will be aiming to close down Robes, since that is all it appears to take to render us impotent in the attacking stakes.'"
Burrow was certainly a hand full for TP, when he manhandled him man and ball in the last match. Burrows gripping on for dear life. |
