[quote="phe13":3p7mru9h]One thing that Gareth had was a determination to succeed and he put the work in for his achievements.[/quote:3p7mru9h] That will always outweigh talent, I could write a book an inch thick of players that could have made it but determination and attitude, which go together, they sadly didn’t have

Oli looks to me like a modern Paul Newlove. So many similarities. But Gareth in 03 was unstoppable in the centres. In a really bad side. It's a close call. I'm looking forward to seeing Oli in Super League.

I'm not generally one for direct comparisons except where the similarity is stark... and I think we have one in the trinity ranks this year... for me the two players I think are almost identical in style is Josh Rourke and Zac Hardaker
