Well the OP was asking why Wane "loves" MM despite his poor discipline, and you responded about something totally different, vis, people being spooked about one defeat and miffed about next years prospects.

Because the OP is one of many posts after last night bemoaning things that aren't issues in the short term. We have a cracking side when everyone plays but our best players are being rested. People don't seem to take that in to consideration though when bagging all the other players.

Lockers and Tomkins do indeed make the lads around them look better I suppose but the same can be said of Sinfield and Peacock at Leeds for example.

The point I'm trying to make is all this whining and moaning after last night (including this thread) is ridiculous in relation to this years prospects, they're still very good IMO but if people want to start a hundred thread panicking about next years chances I could understand it.

Hope that clears it up for you!

Why pick him as captain when he takes him off after 20 mins

After Piggy left and wasn't replaced by a marquee hooker there was much angst about Micky Mac not being ready and how someone else was needed. MM has stepped up to the mark, shown quality, shown he learned from piggy and has developed into a quality 9.
Agree he is prone to the odd moment of ill discipline but can't question his commitment or his place in the team.

McIlorum is one of our best players, we just need a decent stand in to come on when he needs a rest. Logan is not good enough.

FWIW I think Hansen wouldve been a better candidate for Captain last night, Mickey Mac is too much of a hot head to be captain.

Micky Mac is one of the first names on the team sheet and quite rightly so. When he goes off its noticeable in attack and defence. I'd play him for the full 80 in all the big games. People moaning about his discipline need to understand that you need aggressive horrible b4stards in your pack who play on the edge. I'd say our pack on the whole lacks this and is too nice, Micky provides a bit of fear factor that you need.

Give over, you are basically saying you can't be a good hooker without having ill discipline, which is . And to say anyone who "moans" about his discipline just doesn't understand is more .

I'd like to see you play with a busted knee......

He's not ill disciplined though, its a myth. How many yellows/reds has he had this year??? He's an aggressive player, he gets in his opposite numbers face and gets stuck in. I wouldn't swap him for any other hooker in SL personally.

Yes because that's what I said

. Where did I say to be a good hooker you need to have ill discipline? How about read a post properly before replying.

Based purely on the last 2 seasons , Shaun Lunt by plenty .

In your opinion.
