| There are no british based players who are the world's best in their chosen position. Sad, but true.

Perhaps better as an attacking winger, but do they all offer more to a team that Pat does in terms of tries scored, defensive abilities and kicking?

I thought I'd included him, but I agree he is an excellent winger.

And so it continues!
viewtopic.php?f=21&t=475467
Hardly a Saints fan but most definately no Wolfs on here for a month and then England play and it's open season on Wigan Players.
PS
According to one thread Ben Harrison was "Great" on Sunday, yet he did no more/less than Joel did previous week after coming on round about the hour mark and he was labelled "Awful".
It's just like the 80's & 90's all over again!
Love it!

really confused here.
Hardly open season. The question is in that thread who would you rather have Hodgeson or Sam on a WIRE BOARD! Most people are saying they'd rather have Hodgeson but some have said Sam. It is about 70/30. If you get upset at 30% of people not preferring Sam at this stage then you have very thin skin.
I made a post I don't think you could argue with in that. Sam is young and,as many have said, needs time to become great. (Some on here suggest he should bulk up, crazy i tell you) While i said that it would be better to develop someone in the Wolves' youth set up instead.
And i think i know what post you are referring to with the Harrison is great thing. That was in the context of the rest of the England team, who were all pretty poor. You should't pick and choose where you quote. You seem to be the one with the bias towards Joel.
There isn't really any hatred for Wigan players. More just disappointment with the England team and especially Sam. He promised so much last year and hasn't delivered.
He will given time though.

None of the players mentioned do, IMO.
Its Pat's all-round game that makes him special; it isn't that he's outstanding in one area alone, he is the complete player and very, very consistent. Just look at his stats on the superleague website - e.g. 3rd in the most metres gained, 1st equal in clean breaks....

I felt sorry for Sam Tomkins actually. Too much expectation was placed on his shoulders given his relative inexperience at international level.
