And being capable under a high ball at super league level is essential.

I thought Wilshere was unflappable, did absolutely everything that was asked of him.

As I've said 60975 times before........................
Fitzy is a halfback, and not a fullback.



Therefore, don't expect miracles of him when he's playing out of position...

WE NEED A FULLBACK....................or keep Wilshere there, if we have no other options

I think you have a problem that everyone wants. An absolute superstar with england/gb stamped on his forehead. The downside is EVERY superleague side will be after him, saints have eastmond, and wigan have tompkins, but every other side will offer this lad the world. The tightening of quota/entry requirements mean his value is increasing by the week. I hope you keep hold of him and become a force in supeleague. My Grandad played for saints and then moved to salford so i always have an affinity for the club. Good luck and do us a favour on monday

yes but so has cashmere and smith, and they have got better, he will get better to

Names, we need names

Thanks mate!

Surely Paul Forber isn't old enough to be your Gramps?!

Buffer's 44, it's Merseyside...

Karl has been our first choice full-back for quite some time now.

Can you tell me "Jim Jalfrezi" the last time Karl played at either 6 or 7 for the Reds ?

Think it was the first game of the season 3 years ago when we played at Warrington and Wilshere was the stand off and we played exceptionally well.

correct M.R it was the 2006 season

JR, I know he's been our FB for some time now, I just don't think that he's suited to the position. I don't think that he's big enough for FB in todays game. He's a similar size to Paul Fletcher, but that was in an era when most wingers and centres [uweren't[/u built like brick sh[ii[/ithouses, as most of them seem to be today.

I've always liked Fitzy, he seems to give everything each time he plays.

I just think that his darting runs and support play would be better used in the halfback area. Can't see it happening though, so I'll leave it there.
