Playing outside which centres?

So a winger's scoring record does not stand on it's own merits any more.

Clearly they never watched the tri-nations in 2005!

But we can refer back to these posts when he's nominated for Man of Steel!

Richie Barnett. (The english one).

The thing nexst season is 2008, so thats a while ago now since he played for them.

MOS - £100 bet he does not

Love the avator GJB.

Did it ever?

Hence the reason Scott Donald went from joke playing outside Chev to Dream Team winger playing outside Toopi

Donalds improvement was entirely down to switching from right wing to left wing (outside Senior).............would have thought a staunch Leeds supporter might just have noticed where the players play...................and outside of whom...

Didn't he actually score more tries in his season outside Walker than last year? And we all know about Calderwood's try-scoring outside Walker in 2005. No matter what criticisms can be levelled at Walker, personally I think you have to admit that his wingers always score their fair share.

Scored 2 more in his first season than second, playing one more game in his first, He was however defensively woeful as he was consistantly left exposed by Walker,

Walker was moved into the second row when Toopi joined and even moved onto the wing

btw, that was the point i was trying make, a wingers try scoring quality is often exagerated or limited by the quality of his centre,

the only one i would say that didnt often rely on his centres was Big Les and maybe Bai

maybe next time your being smart, try getting it right

The Leeds centres swapped sides numerous times this year, with both playing at both sides, Donald also finished last year outside Toopi who replaced Walker

and why would it matter to a winger which side they play at, especially one whose improvement was defensive rather than offensive? a winger will usually play on the best side of the centre he is partnered with, its not like they can have much of preference

You obviously didnt watch too closely.....watch all the play offs and GF again if you have them (or any regular season matches).....Donald scored some pearlers (all on the left, remember Keiths nice off load to put him in the clear in the final.....) and Lee Smith and others scored from the right wing position ....remember his interception at Saints.....

Ask any winger who has a step how it matters which side they play or prefer....its a massive difference.........as is the quality of ball.....
