All the aussie commentators and panthers coach and captain also said saints where the better team across the board but hey you and Dunbar with your salt jar know better ?!

Can you point me to the post where I have said Saints weren't the better side.

If it helps, I can repost all of my comments saying how outstanding Saints were as it looks like you are little confused.

You are a fool,

the score flattered Penrith,

Saints dominated penrith were second best 

 

I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal-food-trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries.

 but if you prefer chancing your arm, short kick offs offloads, it leads to more statistical errors with less set completions but as you can't predict the plays its far more entertaining.

You can predict scores/outcomes a lot more easily in Super League though.

Watching Wakefield Trinity "perform" against Wigan on Friday for example, was a joke. They had players who can't tackle, can't catch, and can't pass. It was a complete mismatch against a Wigan team who are decent, but not outstanding.

You very rarely get teams in the NRL who are totally incompetent and get smashed like that. To see it only two weeks into the season sets the standard for Super League for the rest of the year: Mediocrity.

There really isn’t an argument about which comp is the stronger despite a very small number of NRL haters who since Saints great effort against Penrith are ignoring the last 15 yrs & using it as some sort of evidence to argue otherwise.

But let’s not try & say there isn’t blowouts in the NRL or that teams don’t put in shocking performances because there is & they do,especially over the last few years with the speeding up of the game & set restarts,it’s RL just enloy watching the game at whatever level for what it is & not what it isn’t.

Do you have Trent Robinson's contact details, you need to let him know he has made a huge mistake.

You are not wrong. I have just watched 3 NRL games back to back and of course was interested in how to English stars performed. Josh Hodgson was in fine form for Parramatta, Herbie Farnworth superb for Brisbane but Dom Young was spectacularly ineffectual for Newcastle, his tacking was indeed woeful.

I think your criticism of a player who is still developing is very harsh.

He is 21 years old and 1 game into his 3rd season in the top grade (his first season was just 6 games). He is still a rookie in every sense of the word.

To put this into context.  From your posts on here, I believe you are a huge fan of Brett Morris, yes?

Well, in his first 3 seasons he scored 20 tries in 37 games in the NRL.  Young has 18 in 27 games.

It really does sound like you want him to fail half the time and that is pretty sad.

I want him to succeed in the NRL  and fly the flag for England- just cant see the hype that's all and would rather be honest

OK.  He is playing his 29th first team game next week so let's see together how he fares across his last year at the Knights and his 4 years at the Roosters.

That's fair.

I would like to read your analysis of the other English players over the last few weeks.  No need to quote them all, maybe just 5 or 6.

Doesn't have to be on this thread.  You said you were assessing the performances of the players in the England squad and I just wanted read some of your other analysis.

You don't have to quote them, just pop in a link to the threads where your analysis is.
