Well Ellery Hanley was And Phil Clarke was superb to For my money at the moment we need what Lockers brings to the game more than we would have Farrell. Blasphemy i'm sure

I asked him about other 13's in the comp and the two he thought came close were Purdham and Westerman which i have to agree with. '"
Neither are anywhere near Sean O'Loughlin imo. They both have ability and in Westerman I see good potential but they've got a very long way to go to get anywhere near O'Loughlins level of preformence.
The only loose forward who's anywhere near as good as O'Loughlin at the moment is Kevin Sinfield. He is a fine superleague player and can do pretty much everything Lockers can but he isn't as tough.
Jaime Langley has been on fire this season aswell but he's a second row. He has literally no creative skills.

| He has improved tremendously over the last couple of year's and is a vital part of Wigan's recent success. But for GB 13 I think Burgess would be a strong contender.

As you know Dave, I have no axe to grind relast season whilst captain (last season was also under Noble, so wrong on both counts really! ) Interestingly, although Coley led the team out, O'Loughlin spent more time as on-field captain than Coley did and guess what? Once again he has a stormer! Take a look at the try highlights from Friday. I'm a great admirer of O'Loughlin but even I didn't realise he was instrumental in virtually ALL our tries. Outstanding.

You must do it on purpose sometimes.
Utter nonsense.
Why not apply for the coaches job next time it comes around, though i suspect your arrogance in always claiming to be right would be your undoing.
O'Loughlin is still the captain and is playing the same way he did last year.

Just had a look at the updated stats on the superleague website and noted that the uncreative Sean O'Loughlin jointly leads the assists stats along with Sam Tomkins and Danny Brough.
I can't wait for my next Sean O'Loughlin debate with an opposition fan that claims he's a workhorse, high tackling penalty machine that isn't in the league of Stephen Wild or Rob Purdham
Said it before and i'll say it again he's our best player and the best loose forward in superleague.

| Well your all clearly wrong, Kevin Sinfield is obviously the best and da fittist 13 to ever exist! Most over rated player ever.

Why on earth are you a member of this forum if when you disagree with a comment on a player you resort to posting a rehash of the coach is always right nonsense?
You seemingly take it personally if someone doesn't think the sun shines out of Lockers back side and resort to accusations of arrogance.
And BTW he's not the captain. He's part of the leadership of team of 5 and others such as Coley have already captained the side this season. Though why I bother to point this out I don't know given you already know it but post the opposite.

I like Sinfield also and he is the closest 13 to O'Loughlin but Lockers extra physicality edges it for me.
Both should be in a first choice England side anyway with Sinfield at 9 and Lockers at 13.

Sinfield works particularly well with a half back partnership where both are off-the-cuff type players, leaving him to organise. Thats why he's so good with leeds because DM and RB are both brilliant runners and feed off sinfields organising, like england did to an extent. He's effectively a 6 but without a running game.

Whilst I acknowledge that Kevin Sinfield is a brilliant player, Sean O'loughlin is far more creative than him and it is that what sets the two apart for me. Four try assists last week. 7 overall, which is the highest rate in the league (joint top with Sam and Brough). For a loose forward that is a fantastic effort. He has done this IMO since he has been with us. Obviously he has improved gradually over the years, but I think his work in attack, as well as defence, is getting noticed more now he is in a better team. Check his stats over the last few years and it backs this theory up.
