The last true world class centres we had was probably Paul Newlove and Gary Connolly(Judas) since then we have had half decent ones like Martin Gleeson and Keith Senior.

The ones we have got at the moment are nowhere near good enough the likes of Atkins,Bridge,Shenton decent superleague players but that is about it.

only thing holding sl and english rl back from getting over australia is their lack of backs like inglis, slater, hayne and co.



It'll happen one day though.

When though,the next millenium.

No crocker again, hearing some interesting rumours, Stuart, Ross and now Taylor with a broken collar bone.



Souths will be lucky to make the eight

Souths were hot in attack in the second half today but there was a lot of average parts to their game. The Warriors dominated them in the forwards in the 1st half. Their winning run was likely to come to an end but I was still impressed with the overall make of the Kiwis today. Souths to miss out on the top eight and NZ have a good chance of finishing top 4.

If he had put that final pass in with 5 mins to go NZ would have won that game. Souths did ok though and thought NZ lost their way abit in the 2nd half.

Go on then, share them.

Enjoyed the game yesterday, even though we lost.

Maloney was great at 1, and if I had to look for a reason for the loss I would have to say it's Manu Vatuvei's defence....or lack of it.

I have a theory, no proof, just a theory ........... the potential talented backs of the future are all playing football, instead of rugby, from a young age.



You know how at school there was one kid who was excellent at all the sports ..... well these are the kids who grow up to be the pro sportsmen. Back in the day, these kids, if they grew up in certain areas of Yorkshire, Lancashire or Cumbria would concentrate on their rugby. Nowadays in the UK, the big strong kid will still play rugby and turn into a forward; but the quick, lithe kid will, from an early age concentrate on his football, and be lost to the game of rugby.



The domination of football (especially the Premiership) in this country is killing other sports.

they will need crocker now taylor is out. thought colin best had a wow of a second half today, wish we still had him at hull

I don't, I'd rather get Luke Stuart back so Burgess can revert back to the back row.
