I would not make any changes...I do not see anything better on your list to what we already have tbh.

No but I've highlighted who i feel is better

Simple, he was 20% fit before, he is now 42% fit now, thats 110% improvement in fitness...

i wouldnt say clinton was better then o'meley but i would agree with the rest

Whiting Vs [uShaun Briscoe[/u (Real FB)
Sharp Vs [uPeter Fox[/u (Experience in the big games, and for now a better player)
Manu Vs [uKris Welham[/u (Only at centre, reckon his speed will make Manu too tired to do as much in attack)
Yeaman Vs [uJake Webster[/u (looking very good this pre season, and when fit he does look like he can produce great stuff)
[uBriscoe[/u Vs Liam Colbon (From the times ive seen him last season, and Colbon doesnt look like the player he was when starting out at HKR)
Turner Vs [uBlake Green[/u (again limited that weve seen green but looks like a gem, turner probs wont even be at the game)
Long Vs [uMichael Dobson[/u (our key man, even though long can produce the stuff i think his time as gone)
O’Meley Vs Joel Clinton (either or, im sure many can come up with many reasons why each is better)
[uHoughton[/u Vs Ben Fisher (not seen him this year but still think he takes some beating, Fish as got experience but not got the same skill)
Lauaki Vs [uMick Vella[/u (penalty machine Lauaki is still a complete liability)
Westerman Vs [uClint Newton[/u (imo Westerman will be a great player for FC but Newts size should keep him quiet - will be a very good contest)
Tickle Vs [uBen Galea[/u (brilliant rugby brain and cant see Tickle doing anything that Benny G cant handle)
[uFitzgibbon[/u Vs Scott Murrell (Complete leader, great player, against a better then average player who punches well above his weight - will be a good contest hopefully)

Moa Vs Scott Wheeldon (Again each to there own, Moa wouldnt suit HKR style of play but may make more impact off bench)
Cunningham Vs [uJosh Hodgson[/u (Not seen Cunningham but doesnt have the big game experience, does he?)
Washbrook Vs [uLiam Watts[/u (Future GB and should hammer the yards in coming off the bench against a tiring defence)
Lyne Vs [uBen Cockayne[/u (Better utility options if injuries play a part, more experienced, just needs a cool head - Lyne will be one to watch this season mind.)

Unbelievably deluded.

Understandable they only watch him play a few times a season....hence the little who is the better player list

you may think so yet I doubt you'll find many non FC fans who think much different. (goal kicking aside).

I really doubt you are right with that statement...In fact I would say you are very very wrong Tickle is highly regarded at FC and got a roaring reception when he renewed his contract last season.

Care to expand on this? There are at least a dozen 2nd Rowers in SL better than him (and I'm being generous there).

Did you even read his post?

Thats why I said fans outside of FC. He does a good job for you, his kicking is very good but I wouldn't think there be a major clamour for his signing if he was released.
