I never mentioned the pace of Samuel or Antoine. They are both sidestepping wizards though. Thomas Johnston is just fast and has no big sidestep. Leeds Rhinos product Benjamin Jones Bishop is massively overrated, especially by woeful Wakefield fans.
Many people seem to have forgotten that Catalans are well served not only by Samuel Tomkins and Antoine Gigot, but are also blessed by a dazzling three quarter line that consists of Jodie Broughton, David Mead, Brayden Williame, and Lewis Tierney.

Now even for you that’s beyond the pale. Ask Hudds fans in particular if TJ and BJB don’t have side stepping as a part of their games as both have scored wonder tries against them.
You don’t score as many tries as TJ did last year by pure speed alone or are you of all people suggesting such an ordinary side as the mid table Wakefield create them?

| Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "Tbf I don't think he mentioned their pace. And anyway, why do you give his inane drivel the time of day?'"
Why not, ignoring him hasn’t made him go away has it. He didn’t say pace but I’d suggest ‘scintillating’ suggest it.

Where did he say anything about pace? Gigot is a lance todd winner whilst Sam Tomkins is a man of steel winner. What have those 2 wakefield plodders achieved other than a popularity vote undertaken by mainly Wakefield fans

Aye if you can't win the argument come back as someone else.
So you're saying Gigot and Tomkins are plodders then, hard to be scintilating without pace but hey you'd know.
Tomkins WAS a man of steel winner, somebody has to win the Lance Todd, Johnston WAS the young player of the year, so what's your point.
Oh and yup Tom's a plodder

3 Grand final rings? SL young player of the year? Tell you what I would not take either of those 2 over TJ at this point in time, not seen Tomkins have a good game in years but if it suits your agenda to start banging on about a man of steel award from 6 years ago then so be it Our current number 7 has won the man of steel since then

And yup, I've been waiting all season to post this as I knew plenty of posters on here would be left with egg on their faces for tipping Salford for 11th/12th. Good job "someone" knowledgeable predicted Salford's spine would be hugely influential this season.

No one likes a bad winner, seriously well done on a great season, I really hope you get to the grand final (Although I'd like Saints to win it)
Be interesting how you do next season without Hastings and Jones.
Really like Watson, love the way he has got you playing.
What was your predictions?

Wire
Hull FC
Cas
Wakey
Wigan
Catalans
Leeds
Salford
Hudds
Hull KR
London
Nothing particularly prophetic about predictions for 1st and last.
Hull will be flying under the radar after their horrendous finish to last season but still think they have far too much quality to be outside the top 4 or 5. Cas & Wakey have good settled squads and will lead the way for "the dark side".
Could be a transitional year for Wigan with the departure of some big names and a new coach but it's Wigan so they'll still comfortably finish in the tiop 8.
Despite a couple of well known NRL recruits I'm still not convinced Leeds can mount any sort of serious challenge in the league/play offs. Moon will be a big loss for them. As for Catalans, it'll be the usual mixture of utter brilliance and total ineptness but if they can get their act together consistently then they could be genuine top 4 challengers.
As for 9,10 & 11 it's a tough call. Personal.bias and massive faith in our spine means I'm tipping Salford to finish "best of the rest". Whilst we lack serious pace in the backline and our pack has been weakened by the loss of Kopczak & Tasi, our 6,7 & 9 are top quality and this should produce some decent ball for the likes of Sa'u & Evalds to have bumper (by Salford standards) try-scoring seasons.'"
Here you go Dave K.....
Not too bad I think. Got Wakey slightly wrong but genuinely believe they got a rough ride with injuries to key players and would have been fighting for play-offs with a fitter squad. Hull should have made tip 5 but there has to be something fundamentally wrong to get so many drubbings this season with the personnel they have at their disposal.
