Its a tough call.

I think Ellis is by far our best 9.

Aiton for me is a 13. That said so is Washbrook....

Concern for me is would Aiton or Washy be as effective out wide/in the back row?

Re Wildie - sorry to say it but I just don't think he's good enough (sorry)...

Quote: vastman "Not end off. Those dismissing Aiton have very short memories indeed. At the start of the season he was dragging us through games all by himself and those dismissing him now were the same one who were spitting feathers when he didn't get the 9 spot for the exiles - fickle isn't the word.

Also to dismiss another myth IMHO our form started before Ellis and built up with a win at the millenium and a very unlucky loss at Warrington - at which point Aiton was a hero. For me it's Sykes much to my amazement who was the missing piece of the jigsaw not Ellis.

He was good enough to be a hooker in the NRL and for PNG. It's a matter of opinion whether Ellis is better than Aiton, but those who dismiss Aiton as "never a no9" should frankly take a good look at themselves and show some respect for both the player and the coach.

This is my opinion which is as valid as yours and anyone elses - so not an end of - thanks.'"

This.

Agree on both points.

Keep em both for me. Not sure we have many other halfs coming through at moment that can step up. If anything it keeps them playing for the position and makes them work harder on any weaknesses in their games.

Spot on Vastman lad.

Aiton played the full 80 minutes in the pack at the Man City ground, with the weather that was some feat.
