Quote ="Gotcha"You must have misread my posts if you thought I said anything different. I too thought the right hand side looked shackier. I only commented that Watkins does not look to have improved on the star we saw 2 years ago, and IMO needs much more game time at senior level in order to realize the potential we all know he has.
I agree by the way with most of the things you put also. Although I repeat again, I have seen a few posts on here about Manning looking good, yet IMO Pitts completely overshadowed the kid and he does not have the same discussion.'"
I think someone needs to decide which way they are going with Jay Pitts - is he going to bulk up and become an out and out front rower, or is he going to retain more mobility and feature in the second row.
I'd say Manning probably gets more of a mention because he's at least a season behind Pitts in his development, given the amount of game time Jay got at Wakefield while Dane was still playing amateur rugby.
I know it's fashionable to scapegoat but I thought Donald's attitude on Boxing Day was appalling. His decision not to be bothered chasing the kick from the scrum in the last minute kind of summed his day up.
