You told me

I'm pretty sure Sam once said in an interview he'd never play union because he finds it boring and would see less of the ball. Only way we'll lose Sam IMO is if he goes to NRL but he gets homesick just going on tour .

best attacking runner no doubt! To dismiss defence, go forward and the ability to control/run a game is very one dimensional opinion! Tomkin is awesome but has a long way to go.

The fact he is the standout talent in SL for sure and is pretty much an opportunistic broken runner, with a magic step, an ok kicking game and a passing game that needs plenty of work says much more about SL as a comp really. I think tomkin would go great in the NRL but that's where he needs to go to go through the gears! Widdop is a much more complete player than tomkin already.

You forgot to mention he's rubbish in defence?

And he is playing at FB, so his kicking game is limited at the moment. When he does come in to kick he does a very good job. I would say his kicking game is more than ok.

But what do I know? Your a Leeds fan and see much more of him...

God your defensive! I'm not slaging tomkin at all. Infect quite the opposite and you can't handle it!

As we speak Shaun Johnson has just gone 90m to score again.

Not really, it's just funny listening to opposition fans telling us how he isn't really as good as we believe, when a majority of fans on this forum watch him week in and week out. It's like me saying Ben Jones-Bishop is average because he can't catch a ball, when in reality I can't really comment because I havent seen enough of him.

I think with SL CC, England, sky and BBC most RL fans see a fair bit of tomkin/Wigan and the other title contenders. It's not like some private club. The reason you haven't seen much of BJB is he's been injured and Leeds are crap so arnt on telly as much.

Edwards was about 12 stone wet and hit as hard as most! He was a bloody good defender! And was sublime in attack! And the genuine king of support play!

That comment you highlight is obviously someone who didn't watch him play.

IMO Sam should be getting MOS this season! He's just outstanding.

Il give you that, IMO Ben Jones Bsihop is a future star of SL, looks a terrific winger.

I'll get to see him next weekend, just hope he doesnt cause us too many problems!

Interesting one, on our day Leeds can beat anyone. Can Leeds turnover the pies in the form they are in? I very much doubt it but it's a final owt can happen!

My family and mates that are going are looking forward to this years day out more than last! Nobody is going really expecting a win! anything other than a good day and a few drinks would be a bonus.

I will be gathering my Aussie rules loving family around the TV(with Low expectations)
