He was doing the same things from stand off though. |

He wasn't though. The freedom that fullback adds to his game has seen him become a freak. I honestly can't think of any superlatives that can describe this lad at the minute. We'll agree to disagree, but Sam Tomkins IS a fullback and his game has improved considerably since the switch. |

Like Ellery Hanley and Billy Slater. Good player, but at the moment, lol. |

I have that much faith in Lenegan now that whilst he's around I can't believe the standard of the team can drop that much. O'Loughlin has enough quality to completely excel (imo) in the NRL.'"
Agreed. |

Believe me it was. I got bagged a couple of times on here for it. It sounds like I'm points scoring, but I genuinely could not believe what some posters ('intelligent' posters too) were saying.
If that was the argument the irony is that Sam is more involved from fullback. I'll not turn this into that kind of debate though.
He's a freak. Outstanding talent. The best I've seen come through our academy in a decade. The English Darren Lockyer. I hope he goes to the NRL when his contract has run out. He's too good for Super League. No-one can lay a finger on him.
Josh Charnley is a special player too. |

| Would like to thank the Whinos fans for booing Sam Tomkins a few months back, since then he has torn the competition apart....long may it continue.
Thanks again.  |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

He can stay here for me.
Class at FB. I said it when he first played there at Widnes. He ran riot.
Charnley is a sensational winger. |

Come on guys! Tomkins is a class player and imo probably the best in SL at the moment but has a long way to go to become one of the world legends of the game! That can only be achieved by consistantly playing as he is at the moment against the best players in the world eg the Aussies and Kiwis.

On the other side of the coin we had someone like Schofield who was successful in a dozen or so international matches (although we won nothing of note), yet was pretty poor for much of his domestic career.....and yet, he is looked fondly upon (in Yorkshire anyway) as an eighties legend.  |
