If you are Usain Bolt then I take your point. If however you and he ran for a bus I bet I know who would catch it first and it wouldn't be you my friend.
Firstly, I would never run for a bus, my friend. I would get there early and be at the front of the queue.
Secondly, it would be more appropriate to compare Sammuts pace to other Superleague halfbacks as the yardstick.
I would rather have a half that is quick between the ears than one on his legs. Myler anyone??
Should Wigan not be aiming for a half that possesses both?
