Clint Newton in the same breath as those blokes makes me feel sick!!

Can you imagine Broadhurst or Gavin Miller dying their hair or painting their nails!!

He wouldnt be allowed to drink in the same pub as them never mind in the same team.

Bet you are looking forward to watching him in the 4 nations!

CLINT NEWTON IS MY HERO IF YOU LOOK BACK THROUGH THE ARCHIVES OF POSTS ON THESE FORUMS YOU WILL SEE IT WAS ME WHO FIRST NOTICED THE MANS ATTRIBUTES. I REMEMBER BEING RIDICULED AT THE TIME FOR SAYING THIS MAN WOULD BE A SUCCESS. "WHO IS HE" PEOPLE SAID "NEVER HEARD OF HIM" WELL IN MY BOOK HIS ANGLED RUNS ARE THE BEST IN SUPER LEAGUE HE EVEN LEFT THUNDERS DEFENCE IN HIS WAKE AT THE KC. HE IS ONE OF THE GREATS AND IN 100 YEARS TIME WHEN BOOKS ARE WRITTEN HIS NAME WILL HAVE HIS OWN CHAPTER!!

Lets face it your club released him and that was a massive mistake on their part, you'dd have him back .

The only time I have seen him live this season was the KC Derby so you will have to forgive me for not seeing any of the stuff you have mentioned.

Like I said, Gavin Miller would probably be ashamed to be wearing the same shirt as him. He wont even get in the SL team of the year, never mind be linked with great names like Miller and the like.

Digger, what's the point of spouting off if you've hardly seen Newton play this season?

He deserved his place in last years dream team. My guess is that Joel Tompkins & Ben Harrison will be picked this time, but Clint's the top try scoring forward in SL this season...who's to say he won't get picked again?

FWIW Gavin Miller's the best player I've ever seen in a Rovers shirt, but Clint Newton's as good as any 2nd row we'd had in the time I've been watching.

I said I had only seen him LIVE once this season. You hardly get a good view on tv as you can only see the player when he has the ball or when he is in screen shot. If I am to form an opinion on a player then I prefer to watch his movements away from the action.

For example he may spend a lot of time bent over double puffing and panting.
Or laying down on the floor a lot.
Or pointing to a skinny young winger urging him to take another drive in whilst he had a rest.

Do you get me?

By skinny young winger I take it you mean Latus? But he's been playing on the opposite side to Clint.

Seems to me you're only seeing what you want to see. Fair enough, everyone's entitled to an opinion.

I've seen Clint play live plenty of times & fact is he's a good un whether you like it or not.

Wel Digger the dog i would suggest you dig a bit deeper cos its obvoius to me ur having a go at any Super League Team would love Clint in they're team he is great for our club and you know the thing that hurt's the Fc faithful he sticks up for our team......... whether you wanna take the P!SS out of his comments in Hull Daily Mail at least he stuck up for what he thought was right..

Digger's hatred of Newton is on a purely amateur level compared to Bazza Lilley! Newts biggest crime was arriving in 2008 and displacing some English players who weren't really up to the job (unless you want to finish 11th every year!)
