Outstanding in a few Grand Finals certainly when he was awarded the Harry Sunderland Trophy in 2005 and in his first season at Saints in 2006 he was equally good.

So it is a big call IMO and kind of makes your quote above rather silly.

He is a player that opposing fans love to hate but still a class act and as proven before can make a big impact on big games.

It's a fact that Morley took Bradford over the cap I don't dispute that. Anybody with a knowlege of Rugby League will tell you half backs and indeed all backs only have the chance to go well if your pack lays some kind of platform. Pure and simple Saints haven't in the last 4 finals in fact they were well and truly bruised up firstly by Leeds and then Wigan last year. If your talking about people not turning up in the last 4 Grand Finals then James Graham is your man for me.

Simmons would be daft to drop Gaskell or Lomax never once have I said anything contrary to that however he would have taken his place on the bench last week if not for a last minute illness. Lomax and Gaskell still remain inexperienced in the big games as is Wheeler so would personally have had Pryce on the bench.

You can see the best and worst of Gaskell in such a short space of time on the rugby field.

Then factor in this will be the biggest game of his life, well that's pressure.......

IF Watkins is fully fit you pick him every time. He may have been almost there for a couple of weeks and been training the house down. Saying thar, he could surprise a few and pick both. Leave Ali and Weller/Clarkson out. Abbo back to the 12/13 position.
It would offer us a better attacking option on both sides.

Ali is in for Weller!!

Confirmed or just what you want?
