Because he's one of the best players in the Welsh team. Why wouldn't they?

Is he?
Don't get me wrong, I liked him the first time I saw him, but it's now OTT imo, you clearly think differently.
If it's any consolation I thought Anthony Walker was Wales best player, clearly not fit enough unfortunately (for well known reason), but he's the best RL player they have,
I've got a feeling we may still sign Evans, but that just a feeling not a fact.

So.....second best player? Still can't see why the BBC can't do a 2 minute profile on him.

I never said they couldn't, I'm just surprised they have gone out on a limb. Be honest for once, rather than points scoring over me, they started bigging him up before the first game started, which I found odd as hardly anyone had seen him play at that point.
Also I don't even think he was second best, last night there were other player out there and they were far more involved than Kyle. The part time Welsh pack stood up toe to toe with the full time PNG players. Now unless the games changed out of recognition that for me trumps any winger any day of the week, yet nobody seemed to mention that. It all went towards Evans and there was no reason for that IMO, he had a good game but no better than anyone else. Admittedly I have not re-watched it on TV and being there live you miss stuff, but as of now I can't see what the fuss is about.
The only thing I can truly say stands out about Kyle is how quickly he's adapted, massive achievement in that respect, though again it's hardly unknown for a RU winger in League is it?
Sorry if that offends you, again.

You said "not sure why".
I'm explaining why.

I agree. I don't actually think PNG are playing badly. We are just playing unbelievable rugby.

| Was never a big fan of Wane as a club coach as he tactics were usually quite negative leading to successful but often dull performances.
He’s ideal for the England job though especially in a tournament where you are going to play lesser nations and wrack up the points.
His attention to detail is second to non and his ability to get the best out of players has endured so far we have been the team to beat.
The reality though is the tournament really starts next week and he and this team will ultimately be judged on how they perform in hopefully the next 2 games.

Yes he does but Australia are the real test, and we've played no team near then yet.

The knock on from the scrum right at the end was the highlight for him tonight.

True but Australia have had a very east run so far.
