Quote: NickyKiss "Tomkins had a quiet game which is abit different to McGuires dreadful game against the Aussies which included numerous missed tackle, a couple of handling errors and a couple of passes that went to the Aussie defensive line instead of our attacking line.
Whenever Tomkins has had quiet games for Wigan or England he's still been reasonably solid. I've yet to see him have a nightmare like McGuire had against the Australians.'"
I don't think it was in reference to tomkins having a poor with ball in hand, as you say he was quiet. He was inefective attacking the line. I think it was in reference to mguire been a hate figure like sinfield long before the aussie game.
