Do you REALLY think that those 4 centres are better than Gidley, Senior and Carmont?
I would give you Shane Williams, he would make a good RL Winger in the style of Robinson.
But 1 from 30 is about it as far as I am concerned.'"
You said Senior would walk into any 6 nation’s squad and I showed you he wouldn't get in two of the teams who played today. I'd also take Flutey and Tindal over him as well but that’s just my opinion.
Look mate if you don't watch the games then how can you possibly comment on how good some players are and others aren't?
There are lots of RU players who would easily make it in RL and if you can't see that you must be that blinded by hatred or ignorant. Lots of players made it in the past and plenty could now as well it’s just they have no reason to come over anymore.

Gidley is a better RL centre and BOD and Darcy are better RU centres. They play totally different roles.

Which is why I said on a par. I think there's less difference in the centres than people realise. It's all about running the right lines and getting the timing right.

Wasn't that the title of the post? I.e. I WATCHED the Rar Rar?
Learn to read before you post.
Flutey is a talent but that's a different point.

BOD would be "below average" in SL, Darcy would be dire.
To suggest otherwise is laughable.
Have you seen them play?

Yes, a lot, for Leinster and Ireland. In fact, I've been watching Union for [iconsiderably[/i longer than League; however, of the 2 codes, I prefer League.
So far your opinions on this thread have been accompanied by large doses of venom and sanctimony; I'm sure you won't care but, for me, what credibility you had for your input has evapourated due to your inability to debate without undue aggression.

Yet you STILL think they are SL standard?
Even WITH the diluted standard that the CC ensures?
Frankly BOD would get his ar$e handed to him by Carmont every single game. We simple would not notice him.
End of.

So your a fan then are youas you obviously watched more than game? Or did watching one game suddenly give you a deep insight into the whole of RU and it's players?
BOD is far a better player than Senior not only because he can actually step but he has some pace also.
Why if Flutey is a talent is it a different point? He played in the 6 nations didn't he?
Sorry i named you four players who all have more talent than Senior btw

In your opinion (which doesn't amount to a whole hill of beans in mine - see my edited post).

Funny you should say that but it had more substance that your opening post which seems to blame the salary cap for:
- RU internationals filling their stadiums
- The media coverage of RU
- The RFL's lack of marketing
- The boring standard of RU
Keep off the shandy on a Saturday night Brett.

Listen Shandy Andy, don't try and gain the intellectual high ground on me.
You know what happened last time don't you?
Now run along little child.

That's fine.
In YOUR opinion, an over hyped Rar Rar Centre is better than the current Wigan RL incumbent.
In mine he isn't.

No, that's not my opinion, mine's that a very good outside centre is better than our current left centre at Wigan. On that, you may quote me directly, both without paraphrase and undue artistic license.

| Give over.
Brian O Driscoll would last about 5 minutes in SL.
Overrated and garbage.
I would have Senior, Carmont and Gidley over him every day of the week.
I apologise to the other RL centres I have missed out.

Oh dear, ginger ale too. You should know it's not wise to mix drinks.
Anytime you've found a pair of bollox to try and have a decent debate with me you've had to make things up, and when asked to prove what you've claimed I've said previously, have never been able to and drifted away with your tail between your legs.
You're a one trick pony - and an incredibly boring and bitter one at that. However you don't half give everyone else a really good laugh.

Maybe in 10 years when you have grown up you will.

As a small aside, what do you make of Darcy? When he first came on the scene he displaced Kevin Maggs and was totally different in his approach, all footwork and handspeed unlike Maggs who was a straight line runner (and a good one at that).
Seems to me Darcy's never really gotten over that serious knee injury. More an outside centre too.
