Uate has more talent by himself then all of your outside backs combined
Taia, DeGois, Simpson, MacDougall(if he plays), Dureau(if he plays), Paterson,Housten,Fa'aoso and Taufua are all more talented then their Raider counterparts
Bahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Funniest post I've ever seen on these forums.
Taia more talented than Harrison? Simpson more talented than Learoyd-Lahrs? MacDougall more talented than Monaghan? Dureau more talented than Herbert? Housten, Fa'aoso and Taufua more talented than Shillington, Tilse and Miller?
WRONG!
Let's go through the teams named for round 17 shall we?
1. Josh Dugan vs Kurt Gidley - Dugan more talented
2. Justin Carney vs Keith Lulia - Carney easily
3. Jarrad Croker vs Junior Sau - Croker, again easily
4. Joel Monaghan vs Adam MacDougall - Monaghan no contest
5. Phil Grahan vs Akuila Uate - Uate probably more talented, Graham more consistent so Graham wins
6. Terry Campese vs Ben Rogers - Campese easily
7. Marc Herbert vs Jarred Mullen - Mullen just
8. David Shillington vs Mark Taufua - Shillington any day of the week
9. Glenn Buttriss vs Isaac De Gois - De Gois probably just shades Butts
10. Troy Thompson vs Chris Houston - Thompson is far, far better
11. Tom Learoyd-Lahrs vs Steve Simpson - so one-sided it's unfair. TLL.
12. Bronson Harrison vs Zab Taia - another slaughter. Harrison.
13. Alan Tongue vs Matt Hilder - getting embarrassing for the Knights now. Tongue is 10 times the player Hilder is.
14. Trevor Thurling vs Wes Naiqama - Trev kills Wes.
15. Nigel Plum vs Marvin Karawana - Plum.
16. Josh Miller vs Richie Fa'aoso - Cannonball Miller is light years ahead of this pretender.
17. Dane Tilse vs Danny Wicks - The Tilsinator wins this one ridiculously easily.
So there's really only one or two positions where you could say the Knights player might just be a little better than his Raiders counterpart. For the rest of the field, it's the Raiders easily.
