I'm still pee'd off that we lost that one, that's why! lol

Oh, you don't need to convince me. I think he's great. I just think that particular try - the one at the unmentionable match - was incredible, and to do it on the big stage like that in your debut season as the youngest bloke on the pitch. I just think nobody gives him the credit he deserves, and no, not just for that, but that was amazing.

I didn't say Ade couldn't finish. What I did say was that Makinson is streets ahead of Ade in the finishing stakes, and that is what I believe, most sincerely.
Quote: Offside Monkey " Tommy's better defending kicks, but I don't think we've really seen him use that ability at the other end to score some of the tries you'd associate Gardner (or Monaghan or Richards). He also has pace which we saw a few time last year, mainly when Shelton hit that run of form.'"
We would probably have seen a helluva lot more of Makinson in all respects had he just got the ball sometimes. But we were determined to go left. I think it was the only way Wello/Lomax could pass, and from what I saw on Friday night that isn't about to change any time soon unfortunately.
