| Quote pyeman="pyeman"I've been a big fan of gleeson over the years but he didnt perform in the world cup (admittadley he was nowhere near the worst offender) and has had his worst season that i can remember. I'd say smith was right not to pick him, it might just give the kick up the a*se he needs to bring his game back up to its former level and give us some more options for centre next year.'"
He scored a couple of good tries in the WC, one from stand off. I thought he played well myself |

no it doesn't i was simply stating that Watmough (if playing loose forward) is a totally different type to what sinfield is!

No where near as good as he's capable of, for whatever reason gleeson has been been low on form for over a year now. he used to have the best step of any english centre, now he doesnt. |

gleeson has shown signs of class for wigan since he has signed, particularly against hull kr in the playoffs. his defence has really impressed me since he came to us, i never had him down as a big defender but the defensive work he has done for us has been awesome. id still of had him in the england squad as the opposite centre to shenton, hes performed on the international stage in the past and im sure he could perform again. |

Gleeson's decline can be traced back to his last season at Warrington when he started playing closer to the middle of the park rather than out in the centres, almost as a stand-off/loose forward hybrid.
Took away his big advantages, which are one-on-one footwork and sleight of hand.

Nonsense. If you want to come out of retirement you talk to the Coach. |

 I'm glad Tomkins has been given a run on his home ground i'm sure Smith will have told him to play his natural game.
McGuire and Sinfields last chance for me at international level, both good Super League players but dont perform at a higher level their field kicking, in the past, has been absymal! they have got to run Slater about with short then long kicks otherwise it'll be ................... ops!

It more the case that they are the most inexperianced; time will tell whether they are the poorest.
I'd personally gone with experiance in the centres but we can't slag guys off wothout seeing them attmept to play at this level.
