You need to watch MCB or BJB' s highlights.
They have both been scoring tries with just the ball on the ground and being fully airborne.
The pair of them only need inches, not half a yard
Hall is nowhere near as athletic as either of them.
Power and strength, Hall wins every time but, speed and athleticism, he's coming 3rd behind the Trinity pair.'"
You do remember BJB played in front of us longer than he has for your mob. We know who he is.
MCB is on the crest of a wave. I don't give a fook how he goes in a one off game on Saturday or half a dozen games. It's all about longevity. BJB has had a career of rocks an diamonds, he's looked both great and $hit in GF's. The other bloke has done nowt. Let's come back to him in a few years and recap.

So according to your logic he hasn't improved since playing with our mob then.

| Quote ="SmokeyTA"The thing is though that overall speed doesn't really matter as much as it used to because there isn't the space to use it. What matters is acceleration getting up to speed over 10-20-30 metres and that comes from power. Even Rob Burrow with his height and low centre of gravity doesnt have great top end speed.
Frankly having s winger that has great pace over 100metres isn't all that useful.'" You have spouted some crap over the years but this is a real gem.

| When BJB was with us I think touching the corner post still wasn't allowed, allowing wingers to get away with touching the corner flag has helped a lot of wingers look better than they are. Personally not a fan of it and would prefer a return to players not being allowed to touch the corner flag.

Thing is Hall very rarely if ever needs to put on a highlight reel dive, he can usually just bully his way over
I agree that he no longer has the speed he had a few years a go, but he still has enough to finish the majority of time he is put in the clear.
Also, a major reason he keeps getting picked for England is he is far better defensively and positionally than the majority of SL wingers, so to say he is behind your two wingers is pretty ridiculous
Would still have Bish back over Briscoe though

| I'd imagine we will line up something like this...
Grix
Caton-Brown
Tupou
Arundel
BJB
Williams
Finn
England
Wood
Hirst
Ashurst
Batchelor
Sio
Fifita
Annakin
Allgood
Hadley
Looking forward to it, should be a great game...hope the weather stays fair!
Just to add....the debate about wingers, Watkins etc...probably started with me saying I'd have neither Hall or Watkins from Leeds...there's more to it than simple playing ability...I'm sure both would look great in Trin shirts, but I'm happy with what we have and how they fit our style of play, team spirit, budget, etc...
Reece Lyne, who unfortunately doesn't play tomorrow is a fine example....someone find out the respective contracts of Lyne and Watkins and what they offer to their respective teams...it's why I'm happy with Lyne! Players like that have enabled us to have the strength in depth we have so that we can go to Salford without 7 or 8 of our first 17 and come hone with the two points...
Happy with the strength of that 17 considering we will have...Johnstone, Lyne, Miller, Huby, Kirmond, Arona missing...

| BJB's enjoying a fine spell of form and confidence. If he keeps it up (and I hope he does) he's a better player than the one that left us. Can he though?

I would be inclined to start with Galloway and Ablett and use Garbutt and Ferres for impact from the bench.

Ferres and impact cannot be used in the same sentence.

| On paper we look the strongest squad. That does not always translate into winning the game. Nevertheless I am expecting a win.

We have much the better squad. But we lack the head to bring it out of them.

Ablett only back last week and still working his way back from a long lay off so would give him another start from the bench. Would rather have impact right from the start tonight and Garbutt is our big metre maker, first start in a while last week in a poor game and came up with 190m, get that yardage on from the start especially in wet conditions and a forward battle.
