| Quote: The Clan "If I were going to use Latu in the 17 it would be as an interchange for JD.
Latu would get 20 mins at the most and JD would be saved for a big final quarter or even the next game if we were in a winning position.'"
indeed. no way should latu be in there at the expense of obst; although a fan of his initially he doesn't seem to be adding a great deal to the overall performances of late. to be fair he's not being helped by drew's abiltity to perform at a high level for long periods of the match which means his game time has been very limited |

| Quote: Jason "Sorry but Latu is not world class. Although I like him before Drew came on in second half last night he dropped the ball and gave away a penalty. That's 12 tackles to them. Last year away at wigan he dropped the ball twice and gave away two penalties in quick succession that's 24 tackles to them. This year he is playing a very simple direct game which has been successful.'"
Players dropping balls and giving away penalties.....really!!!???
Come off it.......every single player does that..........its what the players offer in between the mistakes, thats what matters. |

How many tries has Sam made with his little kicks/darts from dummy half?? takes the ball up when nobody else wants it and tackles when nobody else seems to want to..Sam would be my second name on the team sheet after JD, a grafter who doesnt know when to stop.. |

"In fairness the Wildcats spluttered sporadically. When they were good they were very, very good and when they weren’t - they gave away penalties.":cartoons/WB182.gif |

Sam, like JD, epitomises all that is great about our team - brave, relentless, all heart.
I wish I could say the same about Leo-Latu but after watching the higher level of performance he put in for his country in the WC I don't think he has the same level of commitment to the team.

| Quote: Captain Library "I would say keep Martin at 6 but our sucker punch last night came from switching Grix to Stand Off. Hard to say really. Martin looked a bit slow last night and didn't look like creating anything or getting through the gap, not to take away from his assets which come from smart positioning and distribution and a clever boot - his experience gives him a wise rugby league brain.
Difficult! But that's a good thing!'"
He created a try and made a break!  |

Martin's had some really good games at s/o but is a class centre which were highlighted on Fri night when he was switched there from s/o. And as for Obst being a better No. 9 it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on that. Nowadays with uncontested scrums a hooker is just terminology and the contribution Sam makes is not from the hooking role. |

When did Latu become world class
Sam would be very close to first in my 17 every time.
Agreed it is, we all see it differently and it does show how well things are going. |

| Quote: The Clan "I understand peoples reservations on Rooney but last year when we were at our best he played a magnificent supporting roll to Danny Brough.
He proved to be the perfect stand off foil to Broughs more prominent playmaking roll as scrum half.
I think on form and fully fit he is still our best stand off.'"
not the best in defence teams target him  |
