Could you mention some specific examples of this?

Joey Johns and
Jamie Lyon
for a start
They are the two clear examples and I personally hold that other people I have seen play have been better than what I have seen of Sam.
I don't want to get into a dick measuring match. I was merely offering an alternative perspective than the one that had been mentioned.

Tommy Martyn was never booed for GB either.

are you saying that Sam is better than arguably the greatest player to ever play the game?

Not in his performances at Warrington though.

oh I apologise. I was on my own board. I meant to quote Matty B;
Quote: Jukesays "Quote: Jukesays "There are loads of players who are a lot better than Tomkins that I have had the pleasure of seeing and I can't think of them getting booed.
'"
Name them.'"
But I'm sure you knew that. It was my mistake. Although Matty B, it is a little silly to think Sam is the best player to play super league (about how long I have been watching)

That is a good point. However, we are going off quality. As some (most on this board/) people believe that the boos are cause of his talent.
Well I have seen the most talented person to ever play (according to many) and I don't remember boos (I could be mistaken)
On another note, I also believe that someone like Keiran Cunnigham was more talented that Sam is now. He was strong leader, devastating and rarely made mistakes. Also, I think it was only Wire and Wigan fans that ever got into him and that was because of the dislike those fans have for saints players.
Sam is a great find and could be one of the best the british have ever produced but he is no where near there now.

Not saying that, its the fact you said 'loads' which I doubted.
I have been watching Wigan for thirty years and in my opinion, Sam is the most exciting Wigan youngster since Shaun Edwards, in fact I'd say Sam is arguably slightly ahead than Shaun was at 22.

I honestly can't comment on that.
However, when I said loads I was referring to the fact that I see a lot of people who have a track record ahead of Sam at the moment and I don't think I am in the minority.
I have said that he is class and has that golden aspect; potential. He is reaching all the goals I think people are setting out for him. But, as I have said he has the niggly quality (such as trapping the arm) that other fans really hate. I am sure that is something that endears him to Wigan fans (as a Wire who likes Lee Briers, I get it) but he isn't making himself any friends in the terraces outside of Wigan with his school boy antics.
That is the reason I think this booing campaign has started.
