Even so, with Witt gone, the Crusaders looked really out of sorts. Albeit with Sammut in the side there was that essence of un-predictability, but guidance around the field wasn't the greatest. Losing Sammut is a blow to Crusaders (presuming it will happen), Witt doesn't have that spark about him as much as Sammut does IMO (I'm sure someone will disagree with me there). So for me Crusaders are a far far better team with the pair of them playing together.

qualifying for an international game (and what a farce that is) has no bearing on SL quota RLs afaik. Be interesting to see how RFL handle widdop (trained in oz) should he ever come to SL. instant exemption for him I reckon.

Sammut reminds me of Dennis Moran in his style of play. He's off the cuff and seems to have a licence to try anything he wants to at the crusaders regardless of field position or tackle count number. I remember Moran coming to ourselves and being expected to play to a structure and to try and lead us around the park and it was a disaster because it just wasn't his game.

I could see Sammut going the same way at Hull if they sign him and want him to play the role of steering the side around the field.

Exactly my point.

I like Sammut, he's not over drilled and predictable. But I wouldn't say he's the type of player who takes a team round the pitch, i'd say he's the player who attacks the line and gives you something a bit different.

Tend to agree. Hull are pretty regimented in their style of play.

I'd love to see Long and Sammut paired together, if not for their hair styles. Ray French compared Sammut to the great Long though, so it would be a bad move.

What's it to you, fancy him as backup to the soon-to-be world famous Green/Dobson partnership from Aus School Boy level!?

Just what the game needs, a weak team being made weaker. Surely Hull don't need another overseas player, don't they have a youth system?

irony not a strong understanding I see

as ur mentioning irony have KR released their away kit yet? i hear on the grape vine its going to be green and gold to make ur team full of ozzies feel right at home.

Does your carer know you have access to the internet?

A good player, very quick on his feet. I had the dubious honour of marking him once a bit back and I hardly got a finger on him all game!

Given his inability to spell (along with his love of tattoos), I think he will fit in perfectly down Anlaby Road!
