He is very smart, little things like keeping the Ref talking when he knows his team are exhausted, knowing when to kick at goal when every other player would tap, knowing the right time to instruct the team that he needs 5 mins of massive effort. its these little things that he does that require intelligence. Leeds without Sinfield are a good team, with him they are a great team

i thought borrow made loads of meters out of dummy half keeping warrington going backwards all night.

i can rate them for you;

Sam Tomkins- international standard - best english back we have
josh Charnley- good club standard could become a good international
darrell goulding- most underrate club standard in super league
ian thornley- club standard probably never become anything else
pat richards- international standard winger
blake green- showing he's a good club standard player
matty smith- solid club standard half back but still learning

now the forwards are hard to rate as the youngsters are stepping up, but my opinion as follows;

dudson- club standard prop, still really young and i think he has potential to becoming a good international for wales.
Mc'illorum - nobody other than wigan fans will agree with this but here goes anyway, think he's international standard Wigans best hooker since terry newton.
mossop- needs to be more consistent with he's form before he's counted as a top international standard but he's close to it.
hansen- one of the best club standard 2nd rows coincidentally i think this season and last season Delany is the best club standard 2nd row
liam farrel- hes size will probably hold him back from international standard but a very good club standard 2nd row
sean o'loughlin- the best ENGLISH international lose forward

prescott, tuson, flower are all club standard

tom spencer- cant really rate him has huge potential
greg burke, dominic crosby- are already good club standard players

very much sarcastic yes, i haven't seen sinfield do anything that any other player does to be lauded over so much by certain people in the media.he is a very good leader but nothing special as a player IMO.

This is cringe-worthy. Just cringe-worthy. I've watched Sinfield his entire career. I've seen his greatness first hand as he has captained Leeds to six titles, collecting Harry Sunderlands and Lance Todds along the way.

If it's all the same I'll rely upon on what mine eyes have seen rather than the bitter opinions of some Huddersfield fans who, lets face it, unless they're 70+ year old haven't witnessed greatness week after week like I have during Sinfield's career.

He is the Golden Boot winner for being the best player in the World.


But is he better than Cliff Lyons?

I don't have the slightest problem with what Leeds have achieved. Nor do I think the competition is 'unfair'. It is what it is and you do what you have to do to win it. The question for me is whether people thing a) does it reduce the importance to you of the regular season?, and b) does it matter?
