7 Finch
6 Sam
1 Russell/Amos
I agree that a stand off should be quick of the mark and be a play maker, so i think we only have one of these.

Lockers should never leave the pack, he is not and never will be a half back. I know Leeds do this with Sinfield, but he is 10 times the player lockers is.

:o

Oh dear, I'll be lynched again.
Troll alert!!

Surely you are extracting the urine?
Go on, admit it, you forgot to add the :wink: didn't you?
Troll, I get called some things on a sunday morning whilst reffing but never anything so offending...

Seriously though, I don't think Sinfield is 10 times the player Lockers is.

But Sinfield is a great captain, very vocal and gets his point accross to referees.
He plays well at 13 and does plentry tackling.
He can play at half back well, as he's got the speed and the step.

And i feel lockers needs to step up his game a bit. He's captain on his own now so need to be vocal both with players not doing it and the referee. He is not a stand off and in my opinion not a captain. On Sunday he should have been screaming orders to everyone not just ploding on.

But i am and always have been a big fan of his and tell my son to watch him more than any other player. His comitment is 100% and he never gives in, but a player like him needs to do a Farrell sometime and show some unthusiasm.

I think of a Troll as a latics fan, and I would sooner support the Taliban then them ......

Maybe I was a little harsh.
I really do not think that Sinfield is a better player though.
For me, you would be hard pushed to find a better 13 in the world than Lockers, and definitely not find one in Superleague.
As to capataining like Farrell, he isn't Farrell. He never wiil be, and that is good. Just because we don't see him bawling players out, it doesn't mean he isn't getting his message across.
I DESPISE Sinfield for his constant chirruping at the officials. It should have no part int he game. The only thing the captain should do is ask for a reason why a decision was made in the way it was. What Sinfield does is as bad as premier league wendyball players surrounding and harrassing the ref.
