| Quote Wollo-Wollo-Wollo-Wayoo="Wollo-Wollo-Wollo-Wayoo"Strange comparison using that cash rich Wigan side of the 80s and 90's that was the only professional side in the game and had 8 back to back challenge cup wins versus little old Wakey. Wasn't Miles only there 1 season???
As a continued fan of TJ I always want to see him score and, with that in mind, I don't think Catalans Centre Adam Keighran does Tom any favours regarding putting tries or break opportunities on a plate. Keighran has got 12 tries himself.
Maybe a vid of his 27 tries is available somewhere to check that out though? There is a vid that has his Wakey tries + 15 of this seasons scores. Keighran supplies his final pass for 4 of those.'"
Not a strange comparison at all, it’s very accurate!
I also recognised that money was an issue but the philosophy is identical
I didn’t suggest we go out and buy Latrell Mitchell did I, however a Centre with a decent pass in him would have been a start! |

| Quote alegend="alegend"T J was outside Topu most of the time ,one of the better centres I have seen at Wakefield ,but like T J ended up been used as a battering ram ,been pushed back too early by poor medical staff, like T J ended up been sidelined for lot of the season .Never saw in full what could have been one of the best combinations because of poor decision .Hope it is put right this season'"
Seriously!
You think Tupou was a wingers Centre, a Centre who could subtlety get a pass away and put his winger in space, a centre who used footwork to manipulate the defenders to open a channel for his winger! |

I dont agree that the club let him down.
OK, Trinity weren't able to have a team of superstars around him and he picked up some injuries but, they treated him well and let him go at the right time (maybe we didn't have much choice there).
Having said that, they brought him on very, very well and certainly helped him become the player that he is.
The comments about him being used as a bettering ram are wrong, he plays just the same role at Catalan, as does Davies on their right wing - it's part of the game.
Maybe the difference is that Johnstone is a "marked man" and attracts a little bit of extra attention from opposition sides.
I hope that he scores a hat trick in the GF and gets MoS, the guy is box office.

We certainly did not let Tom down and yes he was used last night to bring the ball away just as he was at Wakefield and as all modern wingers are.

Apparently he needs one more try this season to equal the club record set by Morgan Escare. That would be quite an achievement in his first season

I don't so much think the club did, more like the coaches especially Chester. In some games we only got the ball to him 3/4 times at most and we had no set plays to get him in the game. FFs he was almost certainly our best player in SL and we didnt have the gorm to even attempt to utilise his ability half the time, it used to drive me crackers. |
