Quote: Last Son of Wigan "oh damn it's Phuzzy...'"
Care to answer or shall I, again, take it you can't?
To use the phrase "ask any Saints fan" is so far removed from any rational argument that I shouldn't even need to mention it. I will though..
As it happens I have no problem with your views. It's the hyperbole you use to express them. So Bateman is not 'as good as' or 'better' than O'Loughlin, the best player we have had at the club in a decade, but he is "far better". Makinson isn't 'more rounded' or 'more experienced' or even 'better', he is 'head and shoulders' better. You don't have to exaggerate a point to make it you know?
For what it's worth my opinion is Makinson, at this point, is slightly the better winger but not by much. Age for age there's no comparison! Davies has, only this season, set a Superleague record for number of metres in a match. That's not just Makinson he's beaten.. or any other winger for that matter.. That's every player who's ever played the game! He's in his first season as first choice winger...
