Your example is purely hypothetical - how do you know that? you don't of course.
Ryan Hampshire is invaluable to me as cover for a number of positions but Max Jowitt is IMO, of course, the best FB on the books

Never ceases to amaze me that we get a good win against a team that embarrassed us quite recently and people are picking fights about a player who didn't even play.

I enjoyed the game and thought we played pretty well with some individual standout players.
Am I on my own?

No you're not...once we got over that poor start and got our noses in front we never looked like losing

And of course that is your opinion you believe max is better and you are entitled to that i believe ryan is better maybe it may have somthimg to do with us playing our best and getting best results with one in team and an other not.

I think you misunderstand PT ? - or do I misunderstand? I'm exchanging views about players with another contributor which I thought was the objective of this forum?
It doesn't stop me being happy about today's result
.Don't let it get to the stage where nobody can comment on such things or I'm done with it!

He’s not expressing an opinion he’s expressing a fact. You have no idea what Jowitt would have done, as ever you are negatively speculating. I’m sure Hampshire would be the first to admit he was luck, right place, right time, turned the right way for an open try line, could have turned the other way and got clattered.

I'm not bothered about what is being discussed.
It just amazed me that you'd rather discuss that than the game we just won.

Well PT if a comment, which originated as a spin off from the game amazes you, then as a mod, you'll probably be amazed a few more times!

Has to be said thought Thaler had an okay game. The Kelepi try wasn’t a try but I’ve seen those scored against us.

It was a try. It never hit the floor it just swapped hands and as it was grounded it was under control.

It was however extremely lucky as that clearly wasn’t the intent.

It wasn’t perfect by any means but it’s a win and one we deserved. Always nice to to beat the big spending but perennial underachieving Giants even if it is in a dead rubber.

It’s not a dead rubber for us. True we can’t get top six but an end of season surge is vital for us if we are to drum up support for next year.

A 9 or 8 finish is hardly cosmic but it’s comfortable but above all we start next season as a form team - vital imho.

I thought Thaler had a good game too.

If you prefer Max to Rocky or visa versa that's okay it's your opinion, but why trade one off against the other to prove a point, they are both invaluable to the club and whichever is your preference surely you don't have to disrespect one of them to endorse your point, or don't you think there is room at the club for both of them?.
