Quote: Pat Bateman "My point is that NGB4C has every right to have an opinion on players who he rates and does not as it is a public forum. The constant lambasting of him is quite frankly boring, and I for one would not be impressed at being called an idiot at belle vue if discussing players who I do not rate, so what is the difference if someone calls you an idiot for having an opinion on here.'"

Absolutely none!!

Quote: Emley Cat "I think NGB4C overreacts a little when a player makes a mistake. It wasn't Owen's day because of the cock up when he should have trapped the ball and was outjumped on the try but overall he's been ok these last few weeks and doesn't deserve bagging like that just for a couple of errors. We weren't at the races today for a combination of reasons and as a team just couldn't get it together.'"


Millard's made a career out of scoring trys' like that, that's the way he scored most of them for us.

I agree, but with all due respect that is still an opinion, so why not let NGB4C have his. I do not rate Mathers, yet that is only my opinion so means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

They've thrashed better teams than WTW by more this season at home. They've spent to the salary cap and they're a quality team who should go far in the play offs if they get some consistency.

It took 3 to tackle Owen most time he ran the ball in. He's been ok so far but was below par as most were today.

Agree with what, an individual having an opinion on a player he does not rate. I think Mathers is a rubbish player, yet am I an idiot for thinking that. You agree?

Don't waste your energy Pat they are bullys most of them. Its not just one mistake I think Owens effort has been poor. Compared to Fox he hardly carries the ball, hes very good at pointing and not much else. He is a player who needs to give everything if not he will be in the national leagues. I don't think hes given everything and tonight was pathetic. THE MAN NEEDS A CONTRACT.

You need to practice what you preach mate. You have posted no end of offensive remarks aimed at other posters. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. The Owen thread aside I can't make my mind up if you are really poor at sarcasm and humour or are just simple. Either you need to give your head a shake. The worse thing is on the odd occasion you write some really well thought out posts, but every decent one you post 100's of ridiculous ones.

Well..I see there's an intelligent debate going on here. First 2 or 3 games I thought duffer get rid. I thought after the last couple of games, he is getting better. Look, I think he has been starved of games. To single him out tonight is very unfair. For example, Tim Smith had the kind of game that made me happy he went to Salford for 90k..but he has been great since he came back. My feeling was, we had an utter mare but we didn't utterly fold. I was fearing 60 points but we had guts in defence and hung in for a bit of pride on a bad day. I am not for big reactions after the spirit shown over the past few weeks. Catalans is a tough place to go on a roasting hot night

I suppose that you could argue about R Owen & P Fox aqll night but if you want to compare them on one game , well thats hardly fair. Where as someone could write that Owens picked up more winning pay than Foxy this season while playing for Wakey. Just for the record b4 someone opens up another old chestnut, I thought that D Washbrook was probably one of the better players on our side.

Quote: Fordy "Why have a go at NGB4C? Because he's an idiot. He only ever comments when any of his scapegoats have had a bad game, never gives them any credit when they've had a good game.
I don't mind people having an opinion but it would be nice to occasionally base it on what actually happens rather than on a preconception of how you think someone will play (just because you don't like them).'"


Just to be clear if you dislike ngb4c op
Are you saying owen is a good player and that he had a good game?

For me his positional play defensively is terrible and was caught out numerous times last night. not a fan of his so far although im not writing him off quite yet

For me get riley signed up long term and lets see how owen goes for rest of the season

Quote: REDWHITEANDBLUE "Couple of points

It looked very humid and the players looked to be suffering from that.

Why on earth play in a black kit in such heat basic physics is that dark clothing absorbs the heat whereas light kits reflect it. Why wear that in France in that heat!

Other than that we looked well beaten team thought the french looked pretty good and Simon looks to be a handy signing on today's performance

Note to club no more black kits in France!'"

That's a very good point

I wasn't happy when we signed Owen but he's done ok over the last few weeks, well enough to get away with one game where he was poor but was by no means the only one.
Name 3 players who played better than their opposite number. I'm struggling to do so, in which case singling out one player just because you don't like him is akin to the bullying that NGB4C has accused others of.

It was Owen that clattered Escare in the first half causing the head injury wasn't it?
