^Yeah but I've noticed you're not a fan of Dallas...so I'm not surprised with your response.
He's not a fan of Dallas for a very good reason. It's because Thierry knows league, and he can see when an average player is getting by due to his team mates. Do you seriously think he would be playing rep footy if he wasn't in the Storm?
And you haven't seen much of Tongue in the last 9 seasons? You don't have pay tv?
Tongue > Johnson by a long way.
Raider 69 has allready pointed out many of Tongue's great attributes, but I'd like to point out his awesome support play. He scored more tries than any other forward in the league last season. He's also got very good footwork.
He's actually the complete player. He really is. It's just in 2008 most selectors are obsessed with size and speed.
Give the guy a f**kin shot. He adds new strings to his bow every season. Now he's captain of the year.
If NSW have any hope in getting back the shield, it lies with the players coming up outta Canberra. Tongue, Campese, Thurling, Monaghan even Todd Carney when he gets back and finds himself a new club. They have to pick Raider juniors. It's their only hope. Mark my words.
