Quote SmokeyTA="SmokeyTA"Shenton is a good prospect but, if we are going for a prospect why not stick with Watkins?
Webster isnt all that great, on a big wage at HKR he is big and fast and strong but thats about it, doesnt use his winger, poor defensive positioning and struggles to defend against even a little agility, has been displaced by Welham who is a decent youngsters but no great shakes, good winger though
Atkins has had one great season and has been average the rest of the time, looks good in a midtable side, would be a scapegoat for a quality side
Whaturia is a very very good player, really like him, good defensively, good speed and very creative and uses his winger well, experienced but not too old, perfect for what we need right now would love to see him in a rhinos shirt,'"
Really should not bite, but what the hell!!!
How can Atkins look good in a midtable side, then not look the same if not better when around better players????
Does he not already defend against the likes of Gidley, Glesson, Bell etc??? Does he not score quite a few tries already??? He does all this, as you say in a midtable side. Would he not get better defensive players helping him do the same playing for a better team? Would he not get more try scoring chances playing for a better team??
