I get the feeling he was a good player once and some sentimentality is playing a part in some Wire fans heads.'"
No one can dispute that there are several better back rowers than him in the league. However, you (absurdly) claimed that anyone can reproduce his offloading skills, which anyone who has watched him over the past ten years would certainly disagree with. |

And you call me stupid 
There you go again, you clearly know very little about RL and players or you are just fishing with your eyes closed. |

Solomona is a class player. He looks overweight yes but I'll bet a pound to a penny that he could out run 99.9% of the posters on here.

his size adds to his ability to offload as he targets single tacklers and it is very hard for thenm to bothe wrap him and the ball up

I give up lol, so because he in better shape than posters on a website he is all good to go in super league?
And obviously Im missing something because his offloads look like other offloads that other players do to me, and according to people here they are another level.
And another thing.....ah never mind I cant be bothered having an opinion you get too much stick for it on subjects like this.
Solomona is as people suggest one of Wires greatest players.

He isn't Trevor Leota is he. For those that don't follow the other oval ball code this was a guy who's team gave him an official chaperone to stop him shovelling bargain buckets into his face before a massive Heinekien cup match.

trevor is actually a coach of a union team over here dubai wasps there called, my first game of union over here in the middle of summer and he was the opposite hooker what a nightmare. he has doubled in size and smokes alot also but some how he can still run, but in saying that david solomona is more round than him (also alot more skilful and fitter). |

You clearly are missing something, as is evidenced by your attitude.
Having an opinion is fine. Having the grace to accept your opinion has more holes than swiss cheese is also fine  |

BlackpoolWigan is every bit as intelligent as I'd expect someone with links to those two towns to be.
