So to suddenly claim he has risen to this elevated status on the back of his time at Rovers is overstating things.'" But when he was at FC he wasn't a pivot was he you know with you getting rid of him for Tony who was marvelous in that role apparetly (Couldn't catch the bloody thing but who needs a FB who can catch or is willing to try and catch the high ball eh).
Would you say he is doing that a lot more than he was?

I'm saying he was a borderline international player then and he is now. Some are saying he is "3 times" the player now he was then. That's just not true.

Not at all. He's improved significantly under superior coaching/analysis from our world-class coaching set-up.
To add to this, I was watching Maka's hit on Wheeldon from last year's derby and it's alarming how fitter and stronger he is now than when he played under your regime.

| Id say that being vice captain and then captain for many games during Vella's absence has enhanced Shaun's game so yes he is an improved player to the one that wore a B&W shirt.

Rubbish, in what areas has he improved then? Bearing in mind he played in our sides that were finishing high in the league, won the challenge cup and reached a grand final, playing with players like Swain and Kearney.
