you sound strangely like that other nincumpoop who said that. He also picked Watkins to be ready for a starting birth this year. He's stupid though and applies no realistic common sense.

BJB is waaaay down in the pecking order in the 8 backs we have at the club.

Leeds don't have much of an attacking option on the right so they don't go there. Has Donald received more than half a dozen or so passes this season?

It's a bit of a chicken or the egg discussion.

Perhaps they would if they had a reason to. Neither Gibson or Watkins give them that reason. Gleeson settling in nicely at Wigan though.

Maybe it will improve if Smith can get himself back available for selection.

I'm still not convinced.

Infact it would not suprise me in the least, if stats show that only 50% of Seniors ball this year has come from passes to him. A lot of the time it is him scooting from dummy half. And of the 50% I would also say 70% of that has only come when we have a play the ball within 10 yards of him.

I agree other seasons we have always gone down the left. This season though whenever we rarely do go out wide, it is the crappy pass back inside to the ineffective backrower, which nullify's the centre anyway.

I dont know how you can comment on a player when you've never seen him play tbh.

Please indicate where you said "Webbs natural replacement for sure, now at this minute because Webb has left".

By the time Webb leaves Leeds BJB will be ready. Hence, he is Webbs natural successor. Or you can tell Smith to hang on til Webb leaves. I doubt that will happen.

With smithy being ear-marked for the centre spot(if he stay's) i'd say Bjb will be the natural successor to webby mate.

erm, Watkins has played 8 times this year. I know you don't go to games but if you're going to be so forthright in your opinions do keep up.

Yes, so far down he's already made 1 first team start since recovering from injury.

Besides, as has been pointed out to you by someone who actually watches the occasional game, he's Webb's natural successor. Webb is contracted for a couple more years.

He's stting on top of a hill in a bath on wheels, waiting for Foggy and Cleggy to give him a shove.
