Quote ="Judder Man"I see Shaun Briscoe has got in ahead of Paul Wellens, just wondering what this selection is based on. I know Wellens had a terrible World cup but his stats are a massive 50% better than Briscoe.
So on this basis has Briscoe been selected purely as a new face and can run a bit faster......because its certainly not based on what the players have achieved so far this season.'"
Just how are his stats a massive 50% better than briscoe? Briscoe makes more meters per carry, more clean breaks, more runs from dummy half, has fewer missed tackles and conceded fewer penalties. Who needs statistics though, anyone who watchs RL with half a brain can see Briscoe is far better than Wellens.
Smiths bizzare selection policy is to pick the team he thinks is best.
