Quote ROBINSON="ROBINSON"Lets end this once and for all...
Myler is not good enough. He's not the first Myler to have an inflated reputation eithre. '"
There's not many 21 year olds who had reached their potential at that age. I'm willing to give him a couple of years before we dump him on the scrapheap.
Quote ROBINSON="ROBINSON"Ryan Fall (over the line) is not good enough. Or fast enough. He just happens to play outside an outstanding centre.
Same goes for Aidy Gardner.'"
Agreed about Gardner. Although he's improved his all round game over the years I have never rated him as an out and out winger. I disagree on Hall. I think he's a the best we have, strong, reliable and unless I'm totally mistaken I thought he at least had some wheels on him.
Quote ROBINSON="ROBINSON" McGuire only plays well when he's with Rob Burrow. He's shiit when he's with anyone else - but I wouldn't pick Burrow ahead of either Sam Tomkins or Eastmond, so he's out. '"
Bo11ocks. I'm not McGuire's biggest fan but he's played with Sinfield most of this season and has been arguably Leeds best performer. I wouldn't pick him at International level granted, but to claim he's only good with Burrow next to him is rubbish.
Quote ROBINSON="ROBINSON" Pryce is too old. Same with Peacock - but he's injured anyway so it doesn't matter.'"
Leon Pryce is 28. If that is the reason you wouldn't pick him for England then you need a serious word with yourself.
Are you seriously advocating not choosing Peacock if he was fit? Who would you play? Coley or Fielden?
Quote ROBINSON="ROBINSON" Widdop is untested. A good first half against France and the fact he plays in Australia doesnt make him an instant selection. Put him on the bench and see how he goes..'"
Put a fullback on the bench? Good one. Widdop has done everything asked of him and save for putting Leon Pryce at 1 (apparently he's over the hill at 28) what's our next option? Wellens has never excelled at International leveland he's still comfortably the best 1 in Britain.
Quote ROBINSON="ROBINSON"James Graham needs to keep his dummy in and remember he's a prop, not a stand off. Drive the ball in and tackle. That is all. '"
Thank f*ck you're not the coach. Would you take the mongrel out of Wayne Rooney? Would he be the same player?
Graham's passing close to the line results in plenty of clean breaks for the likes of Wellens, Roby et al at Saints and it offers us something different.
