So RR is yet another reincarnation of Jean, keV, LeBron etc etc? Wow that guy has some serious time on his hands. icon_rolleyes.gif

Both very good wingers btw and may sneak a bench place in Salford's current best 17 (assuming we don't go with 4 forwards this season).

Quote: Shifty Cat "icon_lol.gif How did it get started in that thread anyway, surely it should have been the England one. Tbh I click on it start reading and forget which thread it is.
TBF that post from Ruune Rebellion was fair comment from a couple of the previous posts and there’s nothing wrong with his post.

Quote: ThePrinter "TBF that post from Ruune Rebellion was fair comment from a couple of the previous posts and there’s nothing wrong with his post.'"

No it wasn't and had nothing to do with what was being said.

These were the posts before he piped up and after the signing of Uate.

Quote: ThePrinter "Why?

SL is full of flyers, many far better.'"
by Vastman

Then another poster presumes something and says-
Quote: ThePrinter "I assume you are referring to Tom Johnstone again Vasty, but according to your good self, you judge quality only on performance at international level and Uate has caps for Aus and Fiji with a hatfull of tries, so surely the only better player in superleague is McGillvary and we can't very well sign him seen as he plays for us already!'"


Then your pal came up with the one that I mentioned -
Quote: ThePrinter "T-Mak has been shortlisted for the Golden Boot. Neither Jerry, Uate or Johnstone have been. Johnstone hasnt even been named in the england team. Therefore T-Mak is the best winger in SL
'"


How is that post firstly anything really to do with what was being said previously to that, apart from big up his own player and secondly how is it fair response, what's it a response to exactly? Makinson's name wasn't mentioned till that point, Johnstone was mentioned directly above him and that came out of nowhere as well. It was nothing more than him fishing and boy did he catch some, well done him.

So Vastman can say they are better wingers in SL and another poster isn’t allowed to name one without it being trolling? That’s ridiculous and whilst those few posters are guilty of trolling on many other occasions this wasn’t one of them, you’ve just seen the posters name and decided it was based on that and not what was written which is a fair argument.

When Michael Carter’s name wasn’t on the best owner thread Waley fans kicked off insisting his name should be mentioned and it was trolling not including it. Now Wakefield fan says they’re much better wingers in SL and when someone mentions one it’s trolling to bring their name up? What ridiculous hypocrisy. Just blaming him for a thread derailment when it was mostly caused by Wakey fans critical of Makinson because someone dare rate a winger that isn’t one of their own.

Some people, mainly Wakey fans on Facebook and Twitter, are saying we should bring in Johnstone at the expense of Makinson for Sundays final Test match. Should we?

I just don't see how you can justify dropping someone who had such an amazing game the other day. Johnstone has a lot to do before he can leap frog Makinson in the England pecking order.

I see a few Wakey fans have been on their site saying it was a 'scandalous' decision to select Makinson in the first place and openly admitted they were sad enough to hope he had a nightmare in this series so he'd get jettisoned and Johnstone would get his place.

Well, given how well he played, that's not going to happen anytime soon now is it? And fancy wanting our own English players to play badly? That's Wakefield fans for you, I suppose.

Johnstone is a real talent and his time with England will come but not just yet.

We should just clone 16 Tom Johnstone’s and play a team full of them to keep Wakefield fans happy.

Another outstanding game with a couple of tries from Makinson he might just sneak the Golden Boot Award, we.ve not had may british players with that accolade, so give it a go Tommy.

Bennett will keep the same team, unless there is an injury or a ban to Burgess and rightly so. It's a test match and caps should be earned not given away. Makinson was class at the weekend but he himself may find himself out the team come next year if Hall plays well in Sydney.Johnstone is knocking on the door and his time will come. We should embrace the fact we have around half a dozen world class or potential world class wingers.

If that was to happen Makinson would join the great Kevin Sinfield. It’s a tough ask as a winger. Has a winger ever won the award?

So what if vastman said there were loads of flying wingers in SL better than Uate, it doesn't have bugger all to do with that dude chipping in with his obvious baiting post, if you can't see that it's more to do with the chip on your shoulder about Trinity you've had for the past season or so. The funny thing is I bet vastman was including Makinson in that list of better SL flyers as he put it.
Also before that post, I had no reason to think he was anything other than a genuine poster, so you're completely wrong on the play the post not poster bull. ATEOTD there was no thread derailemnt till that post, Vastman commneted about Huddersfields signing which is on topic, then two others did what you're accusing me of hypictrically, they played the poster and not the post and went off on a tangent.

Anyway this has gone way beyond boring now.
