Quote: Paul Youane "I think Holdsworth, Smith's half-back partner at Salford, is the better player out of the two.'"


very much agree with this comment and i think although it seems to be happening don't think he could ever live up to the hype or the famous Wigan number 7 shirt icon_sad.gif

Quote: Famous "I think you are comparing apples and oranges there to be honest. I wouldnt say that Rads, Hampson or Lydon were great full backs if we are talking about them in a world class sense.'"


Different styles of FB's but still equally as good in their own way.

Radders wasn't a third pivot he was a world class support player who read the game very well. Any sort of break and 9/10 times Radders is on your shoulder. Add in deceptive pace, excellent under the bomb and rock hard defence and for me he was a world class FB.

Not flashy but not everyone is.

Its got nothing to do with opinions and I don't care wether I'm right or wrong on this but the fact of the matter of is that Shaun Wane is the Coach of Wigan Warriors none of us, Opinions or otherwise there is not a chance on earth that for any sustained period of time Sam Tomkins will be moved back to Stand Off as long as Shaun Wane is Coach, Stevie Wonder blindfolded and locked in a basement can see that Sam Tomkins for as long as he remains a Wigan player will stay at Full Back and as I said previously why anyone would debate any different is way beyond me if Finch does indeed follow Leuluai back to Aus then quite simply Matty Smith wouldn't be the only player brought in as a replacement, Matty Russell will not start next season at 1 Sam Powell will not start the season at 6 and Joe Mellor if he is remains at Wigan will not start the season at 6 or 7 Sam Tomkins will be wearing 1 Matty Smith 7 and Finch or a New Signing (Soward or Chase?) will be wearing 6.

Great signing. Perfect for us. Great organiser, strong work ethic, English and has a great kicking game. Has attributes which will perfectly compliment our team. And he's still only 24.
