| Players player award says it all for me really - they tend to know what they are talking about. Could also be that he contributes to the performance of the team in more ways that simply what he does out on the pitch.

| Quote: LordoftheWarlords "I was initially doubtful about Blaymire's impact on our attack, then a few comments from Sky and my Dad who I was watching Saturday's game with changed my viewpoint. As an adult, I feel that is possible - some may not! He is being squad-wise responsible in returning the ball and preserving his place in the team. He is also realising that he is just the start of the ball back, not the total product.
Sky mentioned that he is one of the best British fullbacks, and if you look at the other teams then yes he is... surprising though it may be. Wellens, Webb, Briscoe, Richards, Hodgson are in the top 6 with him. So is he in the top 3 British fullbacks without us realising it? The table says so.
I am happy to change my mind about a player - how many of you are?'"
Who is the back-up full back? Would say Grix at the mo, but if and when he leaves who would provide cover/competition for Matt Blaymire.

As the squad stands, I think that the only realistic option would be Aaron Murphy (providing he signs a new contract) as he has played FB in the reserves occasionally.

| There is a rumour on the Wigam forum about full back Vievers coming to Wakefield on a season-long loan.

| If you are recieving a kick from say the oppsoition 30mtr and you are on your own 20mtr, what is the point in blasting back at full tilt if when you are tackled all your team mates are still in the opposition half, and you have nobody to play the ball to?? Watch Matty properly.........when the support is there, he runs it harder and faster. He only runs it in steady to allow his team mates to reposition accordingly
He has had a great season IMHO.

| i would venture to say the Briscoe gets injured more due to the way his body position is rather than the speed he runs the ball...and he's unluckier.
ROFL at the criticism of Blaymire

| Check out the respective stats on Blaymire & Briscoe on the Engage site, I think you`ll find Matt come out better on balance, and he`s been our only ever-present, while Briscoe has missed 6 games.

| You can always pick fault in someones game.....but Blaymire is better than good at all aspects of Fullback. He of course could be even better at some but he has time to improve too.
Wouldn't swap him for anyone else at the moment.

| Quote: imwakefieldtillidie "Just seen that Matt Blaymire has won 'Players Player of the Year'. And whilst he has been a consistant performer, I also feel that he doesn't make enough ground when returning kicks in play. This was highlighted by Shaun Briscoe who was outstanding before he went off injured on Saturday. With a more attacking approach, an extra 10-15 yards could be added to our attack and give players like Brough and Obst a greater platform in the oppositions half. This may be an area which, with improvement, could take us to an higher level.]'"
Couldn't agree more. Blaymire doesn't run back with any vigour and doesn't have the requisite physical attributes to make tackle busts etc but rather, get dominated beyond belief in practically in every tackle.
Compare to Morton and Murphy who both returned kicks far better than Blaymire at the weekend vs KR.

This is ridiculous.
Running slowly surely means the opposing defence has more time to get further up the pitch and thus, giving them a better position for the set?
Surely if he ran faster, the Wildcats players wouldn't have to retreat as much as he'd get up to them quicker, thus meaning they'd be saving energy?
