Quote: NickyKiss "I think we just have to accept that Hull fans see Connor as the finest rugby league player to ever grace the fields of Great Britain and Wakefield fans believe Tom Johnstone is the product of a cloning programme which involved him being made up of genes belonging to Jason Robinson, Billy Boston, Brian Bevan, Martin Offiah and Tom Van Vollanhoven. You simply wont talk any sense in to them!
Both fine players by the way but to to suggest Gildart was swapped sides to let Connor tackle the wonder boy Manu and avoid him terrorising the frail Gildart defence is laughable. We’ve just seen Gildart own two fantastic centres in high pressure games and he’s been playing really well as a right centre. It’s not like he was facing some nothing man over on the right either.'"
I apologise, I completely overlooked the change in side by Gildart for Wigan, and always saw him as the left centre - so when tuning in on Saturday I wondered why they had swapped side.
My bad. Nothing against Gildart at all. I don't see Connor as what you state sarcastically above either, although I do see him as a better 6 than a 3/4 as he needs to touch the ball more
