| Quote: John Gilbert Reds "Over rated? Of course he is. The only England back who has impressed so far this World Cup is Ryan Hall, all the others (including Rangi Chase) have played way below their usual high standards. I'm amazed how much stick Chase has copped so far this tournament, when the likes of Sinfield and Tomkins have been anonymous.
This England team was doomed to failure the second McNamara decided to play Sinfield at 7.'"
Dumb post of the year.
Sinfield and Tomkins have been exceptional. Tomkins is playing the best I've ever seen him play in an England shirt. |

Sinfield and Tomkins have definitely not been "exceptional". I'd challenge you to find anyone else who shares that opinion. |

IMHO, I think you will see Tomkins chiming into the line a lot more now though against the Kiwis, I think you will see us playing more square at the line which will open up more opportunities him and the backs. |

I hope so. He has been more involved in the attacking line the last couple of matches but tomorrow will be an acid test for him to continue this. He has the skill and evasion to be the X factor we need. |

You say they've been exceptional and then have the audacity to say mine was dumb post of the year? Deary me. Sam Tomkins hasn't even been in the top 3 fullbacks so far, I'd have Billy Slater, Greg Inglis and Anthony Millford ahead of him. I would even be tempted to say Matty Russell has performed better. |

That's because you have no understanding of the job he's been asked to do and they level of excellence with which he's executed it. |
