| Quote RebelRebel="RebelRebel"As far as the stats are concerned, is it still the case that 3rd man in gets credited with the tackle too? If so, it's not really a tackle stat, is it? As you say,[u the poor bugger who does the bone crunching gets no more credit[/u than the last one to flop on top.'"

| Quote El Rey="El Rey"You and i have seen many tackles over the years and its not hard to rack up a few tackles, some players hurt players when they tackle others don't.
I would suggest that while they all count i would rather be hit by some and avoid others if i could. I reckon that although he's not set the world a light yet Southern falls into the latter.
It seems he's not 100% right yet for whatever reason but i think a fully fit and focused Southern is something that i look forward to seeing.'"
I agree with you. Southerns tackling is very hard and he stops them dead. Though I am not impressed with the amount of time he spends on the field we are far better defensively when he is on the field. I just hope he is fully fit for the Saints game and as captain spends at least 60 minutes on the pitch. |

That makes two of then  don't believe tackle stats hold water thats all.
Anyway back to Saturdays game and the squad, i would play Walshaw at centre and not push him into the second row and if that means dropping a star centre then so be it. |

he is not in the squad. Kirmond would be one centre for me as he is only one to have looked like one so far this season. Mellars needs 'resting' and I am not sure if Collis has been fit yet all season. |

Then a decent coach should find it pretty simple. Give the guy who's crocked time to get fit, give the guy who's underperforming time in the reserves, and give the guys who are going well in the U20s a chance to show what they can do. It's not like we're going to get relegated. The whole point of franchises on the playing side is supposed to be to bring the young British players through. They don't have to play a whole season, but a couple of games and a sniff of blood won't do them any harm. At least they'll know the level they have to aim at. |

| Quote jack in the box="jack in the box"Trout is still very young for a forward. I have been watching him a number of years and I think he has what it takes. I don't know how far he'll go in the game and like you I believe [size=150he may just make a good honest clubman.[/size But we need those types of player especially when they are your own.'"
If he turns into a Jonny Thompson or Nigel Bell he will do for me |

Really struggle to see what he sees in trout, he's a liability in defence and makes the wrong choices in attack, he's not experienced enough! Id pick mariano over trout every day of the week! Trout is no where near super league standard yet

How does he get 'experience' by not playing? |

Play him in twentys, or loan him out get him some team experience he's not big enough for a second rower in super league anyway but it's a valid point
