So we can only judge Roberts on last Sunday I take it.

How many of Richards trys were scored with a kick and catch? Hardly 'open, flowing' rugby. And how many of Vainakolo's trys were barges over from 5 metres out?

Ade Gardner scores try without a hand being put on him as did Calderwood at Leeds. Now we're not talking about world class wingers here. In fact I'd have Richards over either of them.

which is all the more bizare as he had hape playing with him

i can see why noble used les' size to barge over but he was a skillful player as well so didnt need to do that as much for me

i would also take richards over both of them and, if it werent for his kicking, id have dallas over richards

Vainakolo is/was leagues above any of those players.

Enough of the soppy cr4p.

If we don't bomb the living daylights out of and bully Calderwood tonight, there is something most definately wrong.

Agreed.

unles he plays like he did against leeds in last years elimination semi?

id be tempted to stick richards onto whichever wing he is playing

Looking forward to G Horne linking up With Calders, Horne has a great offload so hopefully enticing the defence to him and releasing calderwood!

Will have to wait and see though. My only worry is that Right Centre will be filled by a few people this year rather than a specialist

Personally I hope he scores a hatrick and takes the p*ss.
