First rule of rlfans. Never under any circumstances criticise a wakefield player. If you do, you will get all 45 of Wakefield’s fans on your case

The second rule of RFLfans, if you're a troll or a wum you have to have multiple accounts just so someone agrees's with you & likes your post.

| Quote: AS108 "What a ridiculous statement. Makinson scored the first acrobatic try in SL and has scored at least half a dozen of them and his try against Hull last year at the Magic was miles better than Johnstones against Catalans. Clearly you haven’t seen many of Makinsons try’s because he’s one of the best finishers in super league and he is better than Johnstone.'"

| Quote: Shifty Cat "icon_eek.gif I would hope he has got some acrobatic tries because every decent SL winger should have that skill in their nal, but the fact according to you he's only scored about half a dozen in around 170 games, tells you something. As for him being the first, care to back it up with anything.
Johnstone scored about half a dozen acrobatic tries in his first full season, for what it's worth.
What also tells you something is that Makinson's scored about 100 tries in those 170ish games, whereas Johnstone (playing in a poorer side) has about 46 in 57 games.
Anyway, if you're also happy with his record, which in the last 56 games he's scored just 15 tries, which is the last 2 years and this so far, ![]()
Having watched some of his tries I’ve probably been harsh, he’s probably scored closer to 15 acrobatic tries (the first being against a Leeds in 2012) but he rarely scores a walk in. His tries are of much higher quality than Johnstones. There’s no way you can possibly use how many tries they’ve scored to back up your argument, the amount of tries wingers score is based on the service they get and the way their team plays. It’s well known we’ve not played very expansive stuff over the past 6 years or so and Makinson (and the right side in general) hardly gets any ball. Makinson is better in every aspect except speed.

For once I'm with you. I've read some bizarre stuff on here but Jeans three identity assault on our collective intelligences surpasses them all. It's what I imagine being on acid is like. |

Have you been drinking 
Tey watching Johnstones highlight reel on a certain video sharing site, he can fly.
You say Makinson lacks speed, the one attribute that cannot be taught.
Btw, I'm not knocking Makinson, he's a decent player but, regarding Johnstone, you need help.  |

Comparing Makinson to Johnstone is daft anyway. Makinson has four years experience on Johnstone, who missed the large part of last season due to a horrific ACL injury. Yet out of the two who has the greater try to game ratio?
