Tomkins is the more creative player at the moment. Richie will develop this side of his game as time passes but Tomkins/Eastmond is the best England combo at the moment.

Tomkins allover stats are much better than mylers Jint.

One note of caution with Harrison is that he is being targetted when he tires and can be exposed when isolated as his lateral movement isn't great and he does tend to plant his feet. Happened a couple of times yesterday. I wonder if he is bulking up a bit too much at the expense of mobility.

Clough comes off the bench and plays second row. Harrison starts and has played front row and loose forward. How is that similiar?

Clough has played a few games at prop for Saints this season.

Not sure why people are seeing Rogues comments as a dig, he is right. I'm a big fan of Harrison but he does miss a lot of tackles where he gets a bit excited. He will learn and Smith will have noticed this.

What the stats don't show though is the actual quality of each of the tackles he does put in. Same with Louis and Westwood, they miss plenty, but the quality of the ones they make more than make up for this, and clearly our defence covers for these misses.

When you look at the likes of O'Loughlin who has made 500 tackles and only missed 12, then that is real quality.

Harrison comes in with a tackle completion of around 92.5% and if he could nudge that up to the 95% mark then he could become a Test player. Interestingly though, Cunningham's tackle completion is 88.9% and he hasn't had a bad career!

no surprise hes alot porkier this year

As a wigan fan was impressed with him going to be a test player sooner than later .
