Back selections..who would you leave out ?

Be so kind as to leave your homo erotic fantasies out of this. I have no interest in it.

Right place, right time.

So in summary, your response is essentially "nah, you are" with no reference to content. Witty and informative as ever. Missing the Lenin quote though.

3/10.

I have already provided an analysis. If you prove yourself more useful I may or may not go to the trouble of explaining it again.

Lenin said "There are no morals in politics; only expedience. A scoundrel may be of use to us just because he is a scoundrel."

Vas had it been Widdop who went down injured instead of Marshall in that game, do you think we even get close to beating the dogs? I highly doubt it.

Stating the bleeting obvious , we will never know.

I couldnt care about comparing the 2 players, as to me they both have class and experience, and are big time players.

I see Widdop as future captain material, should he renew, moreso due his his inspirational defence and level headedness. He rarely seems rattled.
There were 3 or 4 times that i can recall that a try was imminent, and a great 1 on 1 tackle by Gaz saved the day. Thats leadership.

What Benji brings is that element of sheer surprise, entertaining, rocks and diamonds maybe, but for us i would dare say more diamonds. I get it that many want to see him move on, but in the early rounds of 2016 he is playing for probably his last contract, and I expect him to perform.

Just my 2 cents worth. Im happy with or 6 and 7, even if it ends up being a 7 and 6.

All gets down to whether Benji can improve his fitness levels and maintain them.

A super fit Benji is worth re-signing a less fit injury prone Benji is not.

Feel some of the errors that he made were due to borderline exhaustion.

No issue with that analysis at all.
From memory, he only missed a few games in 2015, and his stats were pretty good.

There's no reason we can't be successful with Benji and Widdop. We nearly won a comp with Mundine and Barrett as our halves and they were both 5/8's as well. We were successful through their individual brilliance (Mundine mostly) more than their teamwork however.

Got a feeling it will need to be the same for Widdop and Benji. Hopefully Mann excelling at fullback can provide that foil that has been missing.
