Now Sir Pat is back I suspect we will see Sams form pick up in the coming weeks. They have a very good understanding back there when they both drop back and Pat knows exactly where and what he should be doing to help get the best out of Sam imo.

Surrounded by around 8 fans today, called Sam rotten through out the game - 'Greedy b******' and 'Wish he would f-in pass the ball'

Yet when he scored, set up Charnleys try with that great chip over and offload, got out of in goal superbly etc etc - they couldnt wait to say 'Well done Sam'

Give the lad a break people, yes okay he doesnt always pass - but weve got to trust his judgement - one of, if not thee brightest thing to come out of our academy in years yet he gets more grief than support at times.

And before anyone says, at times yes he should of used the option of passing instead of running on his own, but the amount of times he has backed himself and got us out of a hole speaks for its self really.

I mean, even John Kear praised him. :O

If we play Sam at 6 who plays at FB? We have Sam, finch, deacon and Tommy who can all play 6 to a proven high standard. But only Sam and possibly Pat who can SL a good job as a FB and Pat is better on the wing.

So keep him there. Roberts isn't worth a place in the starting 13.

He was awesome at times today and he's a joy to watch when playing like that. He of course makes some errors of judgement but who doesn't and that decision making when deciding to running or pass when in possession will really improve as the Years role by.

As for his position he's quality at 1 or 6. I do get the feeling teams are getting to grips with that move were he comes on the link from fullback a little but he's still so dangerous in broken play. His chip over the top and his numerous fancy footed jinking runs today were sensational. I'm happy to leave what position he plays to the coaching staff.

The only times he looked bad was coming into the line from FB..... he gets caught out every time now, he does not have the same space, they are ready for him. His kick returns are also terrible when he runs into the line, he needs to run across and look for space.

He got my MOM for his off the cuff plays today though, he was superb, quality to watch..... not like watching paint dry

sam couldn't tackle a hot dinner,especially one with yorkshire puddings

I'm sure the the coaching staff appreciate your non-interference regarding team selection.

You pies......

Its great how much he annoys opposition fans, especially Leeds fans

The best player in Super League

John Kear in his post match interview on radio Leeds said that Sam Tomkins was the big difference in todays sides,
He was a class apart.

the class act on the field today. if we could take one player from your team it would be tomkins in a flash

a bit greedy at times and really irritating with his arm tugging, but absolute quality and a young lad to boot.

hanging on to him will be difficult when NRL or RU come knocking.

dont knock him. you are lucky to have him!

Sam ran 235 metres from FULLBACK on Friday, that's probably the highest from any player in a single Superleague match this season.

However today I think he may have beat it, I'm sure Bilko will tell us once the stats are released.
