I've been critical of him many times and I'm still not entirely convinced by him, but I have to agree with others that that's harsh today. He wasn't great defensively, but he was by no means back to the likes of last year. Overall I still thought he was one of our better performers until he went off, very few played well today.

| Turner's having a great season and was missed when he left the field. He has in recent weeks skinned players on the outside to go the length of the field and several times put in quality ball to his winger so he does do things that Yeaman can't do. Not as good defensively as Yeaman but better than he was, and much better on the left than the right IMO. Credit to Martin for playing with a neck injury today but the best 2 centres at the club are Turner and Yeaman.

| If he's still around next season, Turner on the left and Yeaman on the right. Can't stress this enough, how much it would be better for the line up imo.

Still not 100% on that, but it's certainly a lot closer than it was. I think it's a bit harsh to judge Martin on today as he would probably not have played if we didn't have so many injuries, he clearly wasn't fit.

If you are not part of the solution then you are more likely part of the problem...: |
|
| First half Turner was the best centre on the pitch without a doubt. Gave his winger great ball and defended strongly.
Second half he was limping like a gud 'un from about the 42nd minute and should have come off earlier.
Looks a better left centre then Yeamo at times...

I wasn't judging it on today to be honest and I thought it was a very brave effort by Martin. But Turner has earned that judgement from me because I was a bit sceptical about him before this season, however he looks like the biggest, strongest and fastest centre at the club to me now though and whilst there are issues with defence the same can also be said for Yeaman.I like a strike centre in attack and to that end Turner has, for me, demonstrated by his actions this season that he has the ability to be that player. If I'm honest he has surprised me with his pace and distribution skills in the centre position but he has actually gone out and done it so gets my vote.

I agree, personally there's nothing to Arundels game that makes him stand out as a better player than Turner.

Or potentially have both but I agree with your point.

He's certainly better in attack. His defence is improving all the time, so there's no reason he won't be better overall at some stage in the future.

| Under continuous development from Gentle he will make an excellent centre. If Gentle can continue to improve his defence he will be better than Yeamo. I would hate for this to happen only for us to then let the finished article go.

Salary cap would say it's unlikely IMO.
I've heard a rumour that turner has been carrying a knock since good friday caused by carrying some ginner around in his pocket for 80 minutes

| Yeamans still the best centre at the club,by a long way, in IMO and will be most probably be vying for top try scorer for the club come the end of the season,like most of the previous seasons he's been at the club,not bad for a crap attacking centre.

I like yeaman but his skill set is very limited. Had he been playing today we wouldn't have scored our 1st tyr IMO. He'd have tried to barge over himself rather than passing to Briscoe

I'm undecided on this, and surprised at just how many on here don't seem to rate Arundel. At this moment in time Turner is the superior player, but if you compare Arundel now to the Turner at Salford and his first season here at the same sort of age, I'd probably say that Arundel looks better and with the potential to improve further.
