I agree he has shown nothing and I also agree he needs to play alongside Gale for 2 or 3 games before he is written off.
Has Walker ever played HB?
Myler at FB with Gale/Walker in the halves could be a good option.

There’s always excuses for Mclelland not showing us his supposed promise.. he’s had plenty of chances to show us glimpses (full appreciate he’s played in difficult circumstances) but I’m yet to see any. I’ve a gut feeling there’s a good young player in there and Agar needs to get it out of him.. as I said earlier perhaps Long will do that but if not we need to move on

Walker played most of his academy football in halves
Hes not a half tho.

Speaking of Walker im noticing he passing more which is good to see i know he threw an intercepted pass today but that summed up his afternoon. Nothing he tried really came off but at least hes trying.

A top class pacy 6 would help this team big style.

He's not slower than Lui.

Mclelland does look a little over weight.He's got a bit of a belly on him and his face looks podgy.Not sure why this is if hes training every day.He isnt the only one Lui looks a stone over weight.

Perhaps McLelland is more of a Cameron Smith type player than an out an out half - he lacks both pace and awareness for a half. He has other qualities that might be more useful in a different position?

McClelland will be okay once his fitness improves and he gets more game time in a team with an experienced half back and a stronger pack.
I agree, he hasn't shown much in the games he's played, but he's not exactly been given much to work with so far.

We have yet to see his good kicking game , yet again in this one it was poor to say the least

All he ever seems to do is kick to touch, don’t remember seeing many proper attacking kicks, which is fine when we are ahead and trying to run the clock down, but when we are chasing the game, completely defeats the object

Have you seen some of Gales kicking lately? and he is terrific generally. If you are on the backfoot, which we have generally been in each game he has played due to him not getting a chance in a full team, kicking becomes much harder to get right as you are always fighting the pressure Despite this he has acheived some very good ones over the games, if you look with an open mind at it.

So your quite happy to slate Thompson, who has been widely praised, not only on here but by the club and players themselves! But will defend a player who is clearly out of his depth, and who has received plenty of criticism on here!

It really does seem that you just enjoy picking arguments, whilst making it clear that you are right and everyone else is wrong.
Your opinion is just that, and I respect that, we all have our own opinions, but you never seem to respect anyone else’s, just constantly belittling everyone who’s opinion differs to yours

Just one of these people that always takes a contrary opinion/position to what the majority have, like it put's them on some higher plain of knowledge existence and everyone else is wrong. Sometimes the majority of people have an opinion, basically because that opinion is accurate.

Take Agbonlahor in football, most people are praising Leeds, so he needs to be contrary and claim the're a myth, 16th at best.

Why don’t you just log in under your old user name instead of creating a new one to try and hide it?

FWIW I did not slate Thompson, I said he was not good enough for us to resign. I said that by using my head, common sense and all that. Rather than following like a sheep. At no time did I in anyway belittle anyone else’s opinion. I am entitled to voice my own. It is only my opinion that had received negative responses, not me to others.

So back to McLelland, and here you are forcing your opinion on me, telling me he is clearly out of his depth. The fact it is not the case is irrelevant to me, as I voice what I see, not caring what you or anyone else thinks. And there has been clear instances of excellent kicks, when given the platform, and his defence has been excellent most times, again which I voiced.

Interesting Gotcha. Is someone being mischievous here under a different username??

That’s exactly my point, we all have opinions, but all you do is rubbish (literally)everyone else’s when they don’t agree with you, maybe try reading back through your replies over the last few weeks, some are one word replies RUBBISH!
But you know what, your right, you always are so there’s no point arguing with you

And for the record, I don’t hide, my username is my initials and birth year, which it has always been, so I’m guessing someone else other than me you don’t agree with

Put your money where your mouth is then. Quote just one, just one where I have belittled someone’s opinion over last few weeks as you put it. I will voice my own, and have no care what someone else’s. To belittle them I would have to be bothered about it. Doesn’t happen, and yet to some they seem to hang on my next post.

And stop pretending your someone new, that is just embarrassing.

The whole conversation between you two is embarrassing

You say you don’t care and aren’t bothered but yet you seem to be very bothered about who I am!!!!
Read my last reply, that’s who I am

Looks like the win against Wakey was a massive one with Salford currently doing us a huge favour against Catalan

Great result Christopher! Have half a chance now

if saints beat cats we go 4th dont we?

Cas's next two games postponed due to more covid 19 in the camp.

sorry I meant catalan!

I bet people stop wanting an extended playoff then.
