| Much like a GK in football, if they're a bit shaky the whole team look jittery. Whilst he did well when he played, he looks very suspect under a bomb, and it put us off against Catalans when he dropped that early ball. Jowitt, I don't believe I have ever seen him drop one. No matter the pressure or kick, or indeed weather, he taking most of those.

You are right about Max. He inspires confidence when taking a high kick.
However, for me, he doesn't inspire confidence when managing the defensive line. It's his only flaw really but its a big one.
Shaul is great at managing he defense. That's why he's valuable.

He did exactly that though in the games towards back end of the season. Watch on trinity tv if you want. You will see him pulling players into gaps and pushing the line out etc. Hes not bad at it but it’s clear he’s making improvements in it.
Shaul at Jowitts age wasn’t a defensive player and was an off the cuff attacker I seem to recall. It’s probably the last part of a full backs game developed in their late 20/early 30s. Jowitts soon to enter those years.
Plus Jowitt is much better in joining the line and creating try scoring opportunities and fielding kicks than Shaul is.
I’d support either but I’d rather we invested in other positions first.

IMHO he’d be a decent signing if it doesn’t cost Trinity too much. Has some ability (but had a poor last season) and at least another 2-3 years left in him with something to prove (type of player Trinity pick up).

He has but not many. The only one that ever cost us was against Cas I think?? He's certainly one of the very best under the bomb.

To be fair I have to agree. Struggling to remember any he’s dropped over the years. He is excellent at fielding kicks and bombs .

I can't remember him dropping many, and the only one that sticks in my mind was against Cas, two years ago I think. Hope non of that offends, Regards.

Quote vastman="vastman"Very little on here is, but you have to admire the conviction with which it’s said. I think some are so deluded they actually believe it themselves.
Alway best to start with IMO, in my opinion.'"
You just said to always put IMO when stating an opinion. Just reminding you about your own advice.
I've always said Max is exceptional under the high ball. It is my opinion but the facts back it up.

But it's not an opinion is it, he did drop a high ball against Cas, it's a fact, or are you saying he has never dropped a ball.
Max is exceptional under the high ball, I believe I said that

You carry on digging if you wish.

| He is exceptional......is an opinion.
But ok. It was meant to be a light hearted comment. I should know better.
It's like teaching my grandma how to use a smart phone at times.

Quick question, how come it's ok for you two to have tit for tat rubbish on here, but when other people do it you're down on them like a ton of bricks??
