Insulted my intelligence? Nudge Nudge.......

I questioned why you accused me of saying something that was the opposite of what I actually said. Do you have a better answer than the one I came up with?

I was replying mainly to his physicality ( not bad for a fookin Dumbo eh? Supercilious tw*t) as you mentioned, I really can't be d to argue with someone with such superior intellect. Just going to ask you to look at his stats for an example at the Wakey away game. Not bad for a non-physical player eh?

Agree entirely about Radford - I would take that a stage further and replace your '13' with 'the team'.

I would replace Thorman with Whiting and play Horne at FB if he can play next week. If not then Whiting will have to play FB which he did very well despite not being one. My first priority would always be to remove Thorman from the team. I accept that maybe Rich Whiting hasn't entirely demonstrated a LF workrate but that was the point of my original post - he now needs to be given an opportunity there or SO. Washbrook is not as clever as Whiting in my view and didn't do a great deal earlier in the season to impress however he is bigger. I would be happy if Whiting was given a chance at SO with Berrigan next week. As I say he has the attributes to be the new Crooke and next year he could play with Longy if no other SO is recruited.

You're the only one throwing around the insults. Before this, you tried to make out that I'd claimed Whiting couldn't handle tackling bigger players. I said the exact opposite. If you're still trying to argue against something I didn't say, go right ahead. You won't have much opposition. If you're trying to argue against something I did say, can you make your argument a bit clearer so I at least have something to respond to.

I'd like to avoid having Horne at fullback almost as much as I'd like to avoid having Radford at 13 (or, as you say, in the team at all). Whilst Whiting would probably (almost certainly, in fact) offer more at 6 than Horne has been, I think it would be better overall for Whiting to remain at fullback and for Horne to come in alongside Berrigan.

It will be interesting to see what happens if Horne is out for a period of time and what happens when he returns.

I'd personally like to see him given a go at 6/13. I've said about him playing 13 all season and think it's about time he is given a chance to show what he can do in a more pivotal role.

But but but but....F/B IS a pivitol role to some on here.

You're an idiot.
Whiting is an awesome player, but he has the speed of a slug, a dead slug.

Did Leeds kicking game turn to a crock of sh*te 2nd half or did Whiting read the game perfectly positional wise to take all those kicks on the full?

Bit of both. Think he tends to stand deeper at FB than Horne or Motu giving him more time but he also read them very well. I'd be tempted to give him a few games there.

Soory i forgot that Wellens has speed to burn........
