SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg



I've been lucky enough to watch Sam for the past six or seven years and have never got this arrogant / snidey thing about him at all. He's always polite and has time for anyone when he's out and about. What you saw last night is the Sam Tomkins I've seen for those years. I don't think I've ever seen take as much rough stuff as he has (and always has) He's a tough little bu**ger and is so competetive, just ask Brian Noble about him.

As someone who has also seen the real greats of our game, Boston, Murphy, Whiteley, Millward etc I really think Sam can can get up there with a bit of luck. One thing about him is that it won't be from lack of effort.

It was very interesting to hear the crowd lift whenever he got the ball. I suppose the only problem is the expectation may overtake the actual. Let's all just enjoy a young man (22) who can thrill the RL fans, god knows we haven't had many for a while.

Quote: Rock God X "I've never said he's not a good player, just that I don't think he's so good that we should alter the entire salary cap structure of our sport to keep him. '"


A sentiment with which I wholeheartedly concur.

If Wigan, or any other team thinks one player is worth a great deal more than any other, then the answer is simple: Give him £1 million a year and then find a way to divvy up the remainder on the rest of the squad.

The simple answer would be to agree a raising of the salary cap, then everything should be more transparent than the cock-eyed, dog's breakfast we now seem to operate.

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club":16914.jpg



Over the last few weeks he has confirmed everything I already thought about him.

I, Like Mrs B, have never bought into this fashionable hating of him. As far as i'm concerned he has the lot, including that bit of edge that sometimes goes over the top. He tries to referee games, as far as i'm concerned that up to the ref to deal with. I was always taught to do as much as the ref will let you get away with.

He has been streets ahead of anyone else in SL this year and last and the only question for me was whether he could do it against the Aussies and Kiwis, and now he's put that one to bed!!

He is truly world class and is the best UK talent in the last 25 years. How can be as good as he wants to be.

As you can probably tell, i'm a huge fan lol

The RFL hands have now been forced and something has now been done to stem the flow . Now not only Tomkins but hopefully the Roby's, Briscoe's , Lomax's of our game will stay ? . Is it enough , I doubt it but at least the game is starting do something about it.

Liked him more this series, but still a cocky little shiite that needs the odd slap.

Must be great to see him play every week, such at a talent at 21.

Twitter - @MaddyHFC:



Quote: carl_spackler "I personally think the last 2 games have shown that world class is now a fair discussion to have about him, the claims have genuine substance. You could see that the Aussies and Kiwis both feared him and paid specific attention, yet he still looked England's most dangerous player.

Whilst for now he's been kept out of the clutches of Union it will be interesting to see if the same can be done with the NRL, as I think a few clubs will have sat up to take notice now.'"


I agree. Coming in to this tournament his from wasn't great and he had a lot of hype around him. Hed has definate;y stepped up and shown NZ and Aus what he's capable of. Genuine world class player for me.
