Quote: TheVee "Ah a smart booty.. Highlight the place I said I would be better than Gaskell and could do it? Gaskell is obviously a better player than me, a fan, just incase you needed that pointing out. He is not good enough for Saints and time will prove that he is not the next big thing.'"


I can point you to where you said Gaskell was 'average' and 'not good enough for Saints'... Yet Gaskell being instrumental in Saints reaching a grand final and contributing two MOM performances in playoff rugby v Wigan suggests you are incredibly wrong on both counts.

The fact you're advocating that Hohaiah keeps the 6 shirt based on him being apparently too classy to drop, despite him showing none of this class to date in the red vee, is madness. If he really is that good, it must be that he just can't be bothered.

Maybe you would be a better option, after all...

I did say Gaskell was average but again you didn't really read what i put I said "highlight were I said I would be better than Gaskell" aimed at your silly remark of "could you do that".

If you watch them games back you will find it's Roby and Lomax who are the big contributors in us winning them matches. In none of my posts have I said keep Hohaia at 6 and I even hinted at it being his weakest position but his best positions are already covered. Even you can't deny that Hohaia is a classy player surely? 10 years in the NRL, 4 nations and World Cup winner is an impressive CV. IMO he is in the 6 shirt at the moment because for some reason Lomax plays better alongside Hohaia and Lomax is more dangerous than Gaskell is and maybe that is why Saints play Hohaia and not because he had a massive strop over it like some people think?.

Hohaia's only role at #6 as far as I can tell is to just keep Gaskell and Wheeler out of the firing line and to avoid too many hits to their confidence before the new coach comes in. That and the fact that he has to be played somewhere due to his contract and promises made to him to get him over here in the first place are the only logical reasons for his persistent appearances out wide of Lomax I can come up with, as his performances there certainly can't be the reason. For me we're missing a golden opportunity now to get some more gametime at #6 into Gaskell and Wheeler for the rest of the league slog and to see exactly what they're made of ready for when Brown puts his lineup together. Hohaia is just frustrating the holy heck out of me now.

Tweet from @martinoffiah 23/08/2011: 'Must admit i did love watching Saints- Cunningham Joynt Longy Tommy then Leon, last classic RL team ever'. Even the dark side can't help but love the rebellion.:Transparent Backgrounds/Kermit%20the%20Frog.gif



The Gaskell situation, for me, stinks. He should be in week in, week out, and I am not happy with an interim coach having this much say over a potentially cracking players career with the club.

I won't deny Hohaiah comes with an impressive CV... but I'm really interested in performances for Saints and he's shown none of this class. Absolutely none.

You say Lomax is more dangerous alongside Hohaiah... yet it was alongside Gaskell that his performances were at such a level to win Young Player of the Year.

It's criminal that Gaskell is not seeing more game time.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif

Any video's to back that up then?

Seriously stop asking for proof that you know she can not post without a warning.

It annoys me when people ask others to prove by posting vids, incitement to break the AUP.

Seriously that's a bit OTT! If I knew that I wouldn't have asked. There's no danger of it anyway as no such footage exists.
