Quote: keighley1 "Both Cudjoe and Watkins are big, athletic, powerful players and I hope they terrorise the Aussies in November.'"



It will be interesting to see how Inglis and Morris/Jennings handle the British centres.

Cudjoe 190cm 102Kg
Watkins 185cm 90Kg

Morris 182cm 86Kg
Jennings 180cm 94Kg
Inglis 195cm 106Kg

It will be a classic confrontation.

How good is Inglis where he stops a Test Winger 1 yard from the line and strips the ball from him and passes it back to his team mates in his in goal.

Quote: Chris28 "He's a good player, but one of the tackles in that video is a massive forearm to the head and another has the ref blowing for a penalty in the background. The repeated shot of the guy flying through the air is him handing off a small scrum half.

Not disputing that he's class, or that he might be too much for our centres, but that video looks like an agent's showreel'"



It is a fan highlight reel from youtube, that is obvious. It is from a series of "Hardest Hitters"
That is correct but several of the players he smashes backwards in tackles are Forwards.
He is one of the biggest players on the field and although he may have slowed slightly at 26 he is still one of the best Athletes in the game.
He will not be "frightened or fear" Watkins, Cudjoe or Sam Burgess.
Its not in Australian players makeup to worry or "fear" other opposing players, its a challenge to come out on top.
No Aussies feared Sam Tomkins in the last Test series, they set a game plan to deal with him and in the main it nullified him to the point he was looking to pass the ball from the deep.

No one said he'd fear them but that they might be a match for him

Yeah he is a massive player, but he isn't that much bigger of heavier than Cudjoe apparently and in case you missed Sundays game Cudjoe was swatting players off all over too

Cudjoe was class yesterday, but he is most weeks. Maybe because he isn't one of the 'flair' players who gets lots of media coverage he gets overlooked by people at times. Him and Watkins, in my opinion, are the best 2 and both will only get better in time too.

Quote: Charlie Sheen "Watkins as a more natural centre than Cudjoe, Cudjoe has improved out of sight since the last time he played centre for England down under, especially defensively (although his performance against Wire in the cup wasn't great). He's still not that great at creating space for his winger, his natural instinct is to run himself, he is improving but Watkins in comparison has more strings to his bow than Cudjoe. Cudjoe is a more solid defender at the moment but I'd say Watkins is a better defender now than Cudjoe was 3 years ago.

Watkins is the most natural centre England has produced in years. His combination, of speed, footwork, ability to carry the ball in both hands and catch and pass the ball at high speed his superb, he's not the finished article but in 3 years if he stays fit he will have surpassed Cudjoe, or any other centr in the country.

Both are the 2 best centres in SL. They should both be lining up fro England in the world cup.'"


Your opinions do not seem to be backed up by the evidence. Cudjoe has really developed that side of his game. As seen in yesterdays game where he consistently held up the centre and drew in the winger ( who was chosen for England this season!) before releasing his winger with one handed flick passes.

Those who have watched the Giants this season have seen Cudjoe regularly getting his winger space.

Will start by saying this isn't a dig or cheap shot, as I like Cudjoe. Good player who I rate and would like to see playing in the World Cup.

But, does he ever pass the ball properly (by that I mean two handed)? Every time I see him pass he does that one hand flick thing.
Seems to work for the kid so it's not a bad thing, I'm just wondering.

on his day,leroy cudjoe has everything you want from a class centre, strength,pace,great footwork,good defence and the ability to create space for his winger, at the moment only probably Watkins and crooks are on the same level.

That's almost become his trademark, its great to watch and him and Jerry work off each other to a tee.

Cudjoe and Mcgilvray on one wing and Watkins and Hall on the other with Tomkins at FB and a fired up Chase at halfback plus the Burgess bash brothers,
James Graham, Roby, big Earl et al up front. Surely we can trouble the Aussies with that lot. I can't wait. Hope I'm not too disappointed.
