Quote: Dads Army 76 "Try saying - injury prone, overweight, suspect in defence - sounds an awful lot better. It's easy to be venomous and derogatory behind the anonymity of a forum name. There's too much of it regardless of who the player is. The same goes for spectators at the ground. I was next to a bloke at the Hull game who called Turner an effing coward because he went off concussed. The guy looked like he'd never played a minutes rugby in his life. On the subject of favouritism - I do happen to have a lot of respect for Wello and what he's done for the club over a sustained period. I have been reading this stuff for months but when you and S******* were ripping in to him last week after the win and had not even been there I thought enough is enough so I've had my say. That's my final word. On this matter - this has gone on too long.'"
So why jump down my throat when other posters call other players much worse ?
I don't think wello should play when we have a full strength squad but I know he will give 100% when called on. In fact I didn't mind him getting a new deal as long as he's a squad player.
Is he better than greenwood, walker, Flanaghan etc as a Backrow? IMO he's not and these guys are losing out on past glory.
Is he better than Hohaia as a utility player off the bench? IMO no as he can't cover multiple positions like Hohaia.
That is my opinion and I'm entilited to it on a open forum.
I've called him a snail and you've shi* in your pants over it.
