But tonight he was still better than the hooker he replaced at Wigan.
So that must be a step forward.

Because they get paid twice as much? Joking aside they don't have to twice as good, they just have to put the effort in and be an obviously good player who adds to the side otherwise why fly them half way round the world in the first place? Fletcher was a good solid pro, Scott Logan was, Pat is and so on. They aren't all duffers but when one is billed (as Riddell was by IL I think) as going to have a big impact on SL and he doesn't, it is hardly surprising if he comes in for some flak. He isn't a young player just starting out but a seasoned pro.

Sadly i think while we have Noble at the helm we will never see the best of Riddell. |

Both McIlorum and Riddell are starting, organizational hookers and having one on the bench is pointless. Apart from giving one of them a rest, an interchange between the two offers us absolutely nothing and it's simply swapping one style of hooker for one that is exactly the same.

So we would have been better off keeping Higham then and starting with MM?

Tommy Leuluai is the best hooker at the Wigan club.

I couldn't help but laugh when Wire were attacking our line and Highams pass from dummy half went 10 yards behind their attacking line!
Clarke easily outplayed him tonight. |

By the way thanks for the 100k+ and Mathers ![]()
if you think higham is better than mcilorum then you're in for some fun flower. clarke outplayed him and higham will yet again be a back-up hooker.

Higham is an impact hooker, if we continue to use our hookers in the current wat we may as well have not bothered with Riddell. |

after tommy's performances in the WC there were many that thought exactly that.
still maintain we made the right decision to get rid of higham and mathers. |

Riddell is 10 x the hooker Higham is, but if we do not give him options there is no point recruiting him. |
