Quote: Easty "I agree in part on the defensive lapses of the system with the inability of the team to slide across and the centre to panic and leave his position jumping out the line or moving in field, That however doesn't make up for the many fumbles when he's had to deal with grubbers the high balls dropped and getting beat by smaller wingers in the air. That thrown in with a distinct lack of bottlewhen approaching the line which was evident at Salford last year. Some critism is warranted and for me Caro has brought alot on himself. If you only had to attack we'd have a world beater but unfortunately for Caro there is more to RL then just been able to run fast, Something Caro hasn't even managed at times.

I've played the greatest game so I guess I'm allowed to comment they ehhh.................What a ridiculous statement to make. People don't need to have played Rugby League to have an opinion on a player of the club they support. These forums would be alot quiter if that was the case.'"

I assume what Sandra was getting at was the ridiculous opinions he was some sort of coward after he didn't go for the line at Salford last season.
To my mind this is a criticism that can't be levelled at anyone who plays pro rugby league, or any decent level for that matter. Rather than a lack of bottle I feel it was that same lack of confidence, that made him hesitate and not take chances he maybe should have.

Quote: hull smallears "I think in order to form a more rounded opinion, you would have to ask how many tries he scored that only he alone would have scored. Or would your replacement also have scored them?'"


What are you talking about the discussion is that he would never make a RL player , top joint try scorer tells it differently and shows what blinkered opinions people have .

Martin Offiah did not tackle so on that score would you have had him in your team , of course you would and employ second rowers who can provide cover for him

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:



Omari Caro is no Martin offiah he has scored tries but most of them were walk ins I can't remember when his much talked about speed has been used for someone so fast he's an incredibly slow starter and you forget about his mistakes that have cost us tries also he has all the attributes to be a good player it just doesn't seem up happen for him

Well done to Omari for his improvement this season he has tried hard and given it his best shot.

He isn't a Rugby League player because he played football and athletics until his late teens and only took up Rugby League very late on. I believe that this lack of RL grounding in his formative years prevents him from having the instincts of a Rugby League player brought up on the game.

It is said of some players that they are deceptively quick. I would say Omari is deceptively slow. He can run but often his reading of the situation is so slow that by the time he gets moving it's too late. Again this is because he does not have the instincts of a player brought up on the game. That bit of thinking time he always needs is a huge disadvantage against players who act instantly and decisively on instinct. People accuse him of lack of bottle but that's not right. It just seems that way due to the hesitation required for thinking time.

Then there are the clangers which he can't quite eliminate from his game.

As for the poster who compared him with Martin Offiah that's like comparing Sam Latus with Clive Sullivan. It's like comparing Chas I'Anson with Roger Millward.

Craig Sandercock took a punt on Caro and 2 years later Sandercock decided it hasn't worked out. Chester could reverse this if he wanted but the silence is deafening. Right from the beginning people said we'd got the wrong London winger it was Dixon who was the one. We'll find out next season and whilst Dixon has plenty of flaws himself he has that bit of swagger, confidence and belief to go with the talent and pace. And sheer quality. Dixon is an amazing talent and Caro is a little short of that.

I come back to this subject simply to give Omari Caro respect for the hard work he has put in and the improvement he has made. If only he had started learning his trade 10years earlier who knows how good he might have been. As it is if another Super League club should think that fans like me and professional people like Sandercock & Chester have got it all wrong then they will be offering him a deal. It's not going to happen. Deep down we all know it and we all know why.

His Bobness, for exactly those reasons you gave he should be given every opportunity to further develop his game he is the joint top try scorer with 11 tries scored so if he is on a low contract in my opinion there is no point in letting him go , he can provide valuable cover.

I never compared him to Martin Offiah as he was a one off very special player but he could not tackle that was known and compensated for.

A coach is there to develop the players to the best of his ability and ensure that the players he has can follow the systems he puts in place.

If you haven't the players to do that you either change the system or the players.

If he goes I think another team will pick him up and develop him . Powell has done wonders with players who are willing to work hard and play for him
