| Quote: Blobbynator "Still got a rubbish backline though.'"
I wouldn't say there rubbish, but compared to other teams, on paper I guess it doesn't look as good but that doesn't matter. Games are won in the forwards and Bradford have probably the best pack in super league. They have the direction from two brilliant halfbacks and there's enough speed in the backs to finish off chances.
They're a good team Bradford and one to watch out for this year. |

I'll agree there. But that's more about the poor standard of half backs in super league. He is not, and never was world class! |

I dont believe any player has won any of those trophies they might happen to be in a team that won them, but thats another matter, there are plenty of better 2nd rowers in sl than jjb that havent won wcc's and Gfs, they are still however better. Ie westwood, manu, morrison, lms (when he plays there), burgess (when he plays there), westerman, hock. |

The problem is that there are different types of 2nd rowers out there.But JJB is damn good at what he does and I wouldn't swap him with any of the players you mentioned |

Ooh dunno about that. Age, injuries etc? They are different types I reckon too. JJB is the one that does so much work that goes unnoticed. Morrison is very good but does a different job for his team. Good player though.
I'm probably biased cos JJB is already a bit of a legend at Leeds |

Maybe that's why Pyeman doesn't rate him.

Injuries have stymied morrison the last few years its true (which is a shame because he is a class act to watch and had a reputation for never missing a game in the nrl), but when comparing players you have to assume they will be fit, buderus is better than newton, the fact that buderus is likely to spend more time on the sidelines doesnt alter that.
