Percival doesn't score enough tries.

Tomkins will be at Warrington in 4 years time if he goes to Union.

I noticed his legs for the first time on Monday. They're relatively spindley for a bloke his size aren't they? And yet even with spindley legs he manages one hell of a drive in the tackle.

And you're right, the fans lift when he comes on. It's just wonderful to watch a prop doing a proper prop's stuff. He must get a real buzz from our reaction to him. I hope it inspires him rather than stresses him!

smell of desperation on here regarding Tomkins, he's a wigan lad and if it doesn't work out where ever he ends up he will be back at wigan.

back on topic, I hope percival turns out to be a top its exactly what England needs but I also remember hearing the same story with Foster, Gaskell, Wheeler, Nathan ashe and not so long ago lomax before scoring a few tries. I would wait for at least ten games to see how he's going.

I once talked to an amateur player who played against Maurie Fa'asavalu during a challenge cup draw game. He said he was an enormous bloke, but couldn't get over how spindly his legs were. Maybe Walmsley will do ok on his pipe-cleaners.

I wouldn't like to see the size of the legs of the guy who thought Maurie's were spindly!

Sia's got skinny legs.

Isn't he from Warrington?

Had a shirt with 7 -Langer on his back when he was young. Allegedly.

nope hes a southerner who supported warrington because alfie langer was he's favorite player then move to wigan and signed for wigan. But anybody who knows him personally now will tell you he is wigan through and through.

But he's from Milton Keynes so how can he?

Because although born in Milton Keynes he moved up to Wigan when he was very young (pre -school). Joel was born in Warrington and Logan in Wigan. Their dad WAS a Wire fan, I think their Grandparents still live just outside Warrington.
