Seriously it does.
You Wakefielders are a narrow minded lot. The PNGers are making a great contribution to Super League. It will be obvious to those at Widnes on February 4th, who will be treated to possibly four (4) PNGers on the field, consisting of the Albert brothers for Widnes, and Paul Aiton and the charismatic David Mead for Catalans.

How are the Albert brothers or Mead made a contribution to SL, none of them have played a game yet you idiot.
Even if they do ok they are nothing compared to the vast majority of SL players who do the real work who are - wait for it English so give it a rest with your PNG twaddle.

Your English grammar is appalling.
I implied that the Albert Brothers, along with the charismatic David Mead and Paul Aiton, [size=130will[/size be making a contribution to Super League on February 4th. Garry Lo's contribution also will be not long coming.
As for the past PNG contributors to Super League we have not only Paul Aiton, but also the tyro Stanley Gene, Makali Aizue and the champion winger Marcus Bai.

Don't forget one of the better SL halfbacks of the early 2000's............Adrian Lam.

| You've got to admit it though Vasty - there something about PNG players that are exiting to watch. Shorter than most in stature but strong as a ox around the shoulder area and hard to tackle. Not the greatest nation at defending but the stars of the world cup were brilliant in attack. I for one am looking forward to Garry Lo getting a start at Tigers and taking the "route-one" approach - something we haven't seen since the departure of Justin Carney. Granted we've seen the flash stuff from Solomona and Eden in recent season's but this player could be a revelation in SL.

I agree. Garry Lo has a similar build and a similar attacking style to Justin Carney, ball in hand. He just needs a few opportunities in getting good ball, to establish himself as a star and crowd favourite.
BTW not all the PNG players are short. The sadly deceased Kato Ottio was quite tall, as are Wellington Albert and Nene Macdonald.

To admit your wrong you have to be wrong and I'm not.
You're a bufoon and rather more like Trump than I am.
I have been to PNG, three times actually and if you think that nation and its players are the saviours of SL your even dumber than you sound.
This WC threw up a better than average PNG side and because of that some on here led by you the court jester are wetting themselves.
I'll say it again if these PNG players like Lo were as good as you make out they would be in the NRL where many if the better English players are - please explain their absence?

PNG did well at the World Cup mainly because they were playing at home in front of a passionate crowd (which was great for the game I'd have given them a QF tie ) but apart from the odd gem the players are so so when we signed Stanley Gene in the 90s the guy who came over with him was supposed to be the better player but within two years he was playing for West Hull

| From first viewing today, we have replaced Fonua pretty well with Faraimo. First carry he sat Aiton on his backside and then powered through 3 for his try

It is hard to judge players and teams in preseason friendlies, and doubly so when the conditions are rain, ice or snow.

Would that be the same Lam who moved to Australia as a 7 year old?
So other than his DNA in what way is he a product of PNG RL? You'll be suggesting Danny Brought is Scottish next.

"An outstandingly persistent and successful performer," was my understanding. Now maybe I am wrong, but that was the meaning that I meant to convey.
In any case any uncertainty or dispute over its meaning does not constitute a grammatical error.

| JEAN CAPDOUZE you are one bold character but sadly Vastman is right, you're an idiot. PNG players, recently have been exciting to watch as an international outfit but split them up and I think you'll find they will be outed for exactly what they are... mediocre utter rubbish.

Vastman the only thing I can say is give it a rest lado, if you're wrong you're wrong.
Adrian Lam may have moved to Aus at the age of 7, correct however he still spent 7 vital years in Rabaul where he really made a name for himself by perfecting his trade as a profound halfback. Danny Brough isn't Scottish, he's a Yorkshire man but Adrian Lam is a proud, PROUD PNG INTERNATIONAL REPRESENTATIVE.
Good Day.

Where in my quote did I say he was a product of PNG RL? Jean was on about PNG players who have been a good servants to rugby league. I mentioned Lam as he is a born and bread Papua New Guinean. Not sure what kind of reference to Danny Brough you are trying to make as he was born in Dewsbury. Lam IS PNG, Brough ISN'T Scottish.
