Well. Shit as he was tonight, Thaiday still outplayed Williams. I'd say that about sums it up.

Raw talent means nothing without the will to apply it and the consistency to display it. Shane Webcke was one of the least naturally gifted props to ever take the field, but he's still one of the best to ever lace on a boot.

He was shitter and more useless than he was in the Yawnion WC final.

Spose he can say he played more than four minutes in this final. Still can't believe NZ lost. With this bloke in their squad they should be unbeatable every time they play.

He went missig like he did for much of the GF. ThIs time, however, he didn't switch on and blow the game apart, but stayed shite for the full 80.

Well, he certainly won't go down as a RLWC holding backrower... Probably needed another personal Haka from his team mates in order to of reached his golden boot best... Or maybe he was just to humble?

I notice he always stands in the back during the Haka and seems the least enthusiastic. What does this say about the man? I don't know much about the haka, but maybe it says something about him being a wuss or a knob?

He's so lucky the roosters were a good team really, otherwise it's more likely we'd just be laughing at SBW's return to league.

1. Ran over by burgess
2. Wears weird clothes around all the gayest parts of sydney
3. tries a big cheap shot on inglis, gets humiliated, a face full of dirt and scored on
4. trips over the dead ball line at the wc
5. Last night does a million stupid embarrassing things and loses.

The story would just be a sad and pathetic laughable one if he didn't happen to be placed on a championship winning side.

In the final against France he came on for the last four minutes, while in the semi-final against Australia he entered the game in the 72nd minute and was shown a yellow card three minutes later.
Yet he alone won the world cup :lol::lol:

A bit like how he alone won the 04 comp for Canterbury coming off the bench and playing about what 16 minutes? :lol:

And if he alone won 2 comps and a Yawnion WC (not to mention Wimbledon, the USPGA, the Tour De France, a Golden Globe, the Archibald Prize, 3 Nobel Peace Prizes, 4 Oscars, 2 Pulitzer Prizes, a Melbourne Cup, and Wheels Magazine's Car Of The Year), explain why he LOST last night? :lol::lol:

I have never joined the SBW wank club.
I don't doubt his ability,he can be a game changer,but he is MIA a lot of the time.
Drifts in & out of the game .
If I had to pick between him & Sam Burgess(even in a Souffffffs jersey).I would take Sam 100 times out of 100.
He puts in for the whole game(even with his little brain explosions),
You know you will get 100% commitment & effort.
You cant say the same for SBW.

+1

I do think SBW could put in consistently for the whole game each game though, if he stayed in League for long enough.
