Easily the worlds three largest team sports. England, the UK, whatever are pretty useless at all three.

Back to being shit, has only performed against the bottom teams. Locke >>> Tomkins. Needs to learn how to defend, on that Sandow level of defence.

Tomkins getting bagged again? Deservedly to an extent of course.

How many tries/assists for him in a fortnight then?

I'm still trying to figure out what this guy has offered over a Locke or Fish for the ridiculous amount of cap space he takes up compared to either of them.

The Warriors would have been better off chasing an explosive hooker to interchange with Friend.

Do you want the cost per minute or the cost per game comparison

His hands...I have to listen to 'whooaaa Manu making the fans sweat under the high ball' every week when I'd take him for my life over Tomkins under a bomb.

I'm still not going to death ride the guy after half a season but his errors are awful. Might still be a case of trying to force the issue too much. If something goes wrong early he seems to get worse and worse and worse.

Also convinced that defensively he is very suspect, in position and strength-wise.

He's barely dropped a bomb since week 2-3. His errors are coming elsewhere. Not a great game last night off the back of a great game the previous week.

he really needs to hit the gym room and start bulking up. It wasnt a good look when he jumped on Sam Burgesses back last night to tackle him - looked like a kid who was getting a piggy back ride from his dad....

And don't get me started on his defensive reads...

Errrr last week the knights scored twice from kicks he wasn't in position to make a play at when he should have been.
