Quote: Last Son of Wigan "Do you think it’s possible that someone could have a different opinion than you?
I stand by my comment. I do think Lockers only came into his own later in his career. It’s not uncommon; especially for a forward. And I do think at 24 Bateman is a better player than Lockers was.
Is it your goal to change my opinion to agree with yours? Not going to happen.
Bateman is clearly underrated by several on here. Who See him as just a strong running backrower, hes a versitile player who can pretty much do it all, at 24, no where near his prime.
If anything his ability to play mulitple position (at international level as well) is to his detriment.'"
You clearly do hold a different opinion to mine and no, I don't think I'll change your mind. Someone admitting they're wrong on these boards would be cause for a national holiday it's so rare! However (and we've been here before) why do you think you should be able to post anything you want and not have it challenged? Is your opinion more important than anyone else's?
You're wrong. I can give you factual information that essentially proves you're wrong. Your opinion is also contrary to the opinion of every coach he played under who, almost to a man, made him their captain. Yet for some reason you think we should accept something just because you say it. Why is that?
