Not really, you need to work on the correct use of capitals & sentence structure.
Try reading it out loud & you may see what I mean.

didnt know these forums was an english written test jeez

If you want to apply the "building for the future" argument....shouldn't the Australians be dropping Darren Lockyer on Saturday...

Perhaps. It could easily be called "Kevin Sinfield Deprecation Society" but it isn't.

It's "depreciation" as in the antithesis of 'appreciation', both of which terms can relate either to change in value over a period of time or, as in this case, to increasing (bigging up) or lowering (doing down) esteem respectively.

It all seems very compliciated but I hope you apprecate the subtle differentation.

you seriously comparing Sinfield to potentially the greatest player of our generation. Lockyer has the creativity and the accuracy in his passing to tear teams apart. Sinfield doesnt. We should be picking the best player in each position. Lockyer is still that, Sinfield isnt. I believe Sinfield should play 13 that is all and im at a loss how a player who is a natural 6, one of the form stand offs in a superior competition is left to warm the bench to play a 31 make shift stand off.

Are you seriously suggesting that OtleyRhino's post compares Sinfield to Lockyer? It does nothing of the sort.
It compares a like for like [isituation[/i, not players.
If anything, given that this is Lockyer's last game, and Sinfield has some years still to come, Otley's argument is even more valid.

big defensive effort (25 tackles) Tee Hee Hee, Lockers routinely puts in 40+ a game and has his hands in many points, Kev has to be the most overated RL player in the game, would rather see Peter Lupton in his place3

How many NRL games have you watched where Widdop has been "one of the form stand offs in a superior competition"?

At the end of the day, Widdop is not as experienced at Sinfield and Sinfield has a much better Organisational part to his Game.

I would have a mixture of Sinfield, McGuire and Widdop in the Halves and drop Chase as he hasn't set off any fireworks for me in this 4 Nations.

You sir, are a complete buffoon, and the total 'red and white tinted' justification for this thread.
Yes, your precious Lockers is a bit of a workhorse but even the briefest scan of comparative stats will tell you that Sinfield has 'his hand in' at least three times as many assists.
As for having his 'hands in many points', I reckon Sinfield's scored more in his last 3 games than O'Loughlin did last season.

Just remind me how close O'Loughlin is to Sinfield's career record of almost 3000 points.

In almost every aspect of the game (other than perhaps his tackling), 'Lockers' simply isn't fit to tie 'Sinny's' bootlaces.

Oh, and if you insist on a signature that accuses some of your own fans of being 'Nobs' you need to take a long hard look at yourself first. (No pun intended)

He knows he is. Don't bite.

fishing rod

line

bait

sinker

hook

yep he got a big bite



sinny looked and played well the kiwis lost control and tried to do Rangi and forgot to win the game

What 'chief' says...But i did do rolly eyes.
If you look closely though Sinfield has in fact created the majority of Englands tries...
I cant imagine many Super League coaches would not want Sir Kevin in their side..Hopefully Brian MacDermotts master stroke of moving him to 6 has infact extended his career so he can continue haunting these 'better' players at other clubs. The mans record speaks for itself.

and a lovely bite it was, to be fair i'm not a fan of Kev and never have been, but he did put on a decent show on Saturday

yep!

I've had a cr@p day at work and reserve the right to bite.
In fact I would go as far as to say I'm in a chomping mood



I'll be much better once I've taken my medication.

If only you could have so much fun on the Wigan board eh? Just like an Arab coming to London to booze, snort white powder and spend time with "escorts". McField should charge for entry.

The Wigan board used to be good sport, until they allowed that little chap Wigan Dave anywhere near the ban button



However, for those who claim that Sinny doesn't have a passing game;

He has the trademark Leeds forward pass

The traditional flat pass with big red cross

and the bulleted one which cuts out 2 defenders and sets up a try

Part of the enjoyment here at Headingley comes from not knowing what is coming...

it's getting more like the wire board every day, people getting banned for having a bit of fun, still not allowed in there after my youtube creation of a Roy Orbison song and Lee Briers crying after their 2010 play off loss

He doesn't pick the team or the position he plays so blaming him for that is ridiculous.

Genius - if your JJB you simply go Oh no not again - crunch!!

Because picking a team involves more than just picking the best 17 players

You still banging that drum

Kev has had a good tournament and played well, there has been a fair bit of criticism of him from other teams, but it's the nothing new, I think he is very underrated by most teams. Not saying he is the best so about but the team seems to be playing well with him in the team, and ultimately this is what is important.

For me not been that impressed with heighton. Not seem much of him in the NRL, but not been massively impressed

I thought he would have been better tbh - he does look better in the NRL but then this is a higher standard so maybe he has been found out and the myth that only supermen can get a game in the NRL is just that a myth.
