Quote: getdownmonkeyman "The thing I am not getting about citing Phelps as a loss, is in my opinion he wouldn't have scored the tries Roberts did as he doesn't have the pace.'"
He may not have scored the same trys but he's been so creative this season. There was an example in the 2nd half of how much we missed him when Roberts had an overlap in the corner and tried to throw a pass to Goulding............he hit somebodies head in the middle of the north stand! Phelps would have made that play with ease imo and would have probably created other chances in the 80 mins.
Roberts was immense on Saturday night but I still can't wait for us to have Phelps back. He looks like he could develope into something pretty special in the fullback position imo. You can tell he's a former Australian schoolboys stand off with the way he chimes into the line and creates opportunities for others.
