Well it looks like I am going to have to do some teaching on the Bulls forum tonight. I have probably received the poorest reply to a post possible!

I wouldn't bother posting on their forum, some of their fans seem to think Menzie's could win the superleague on his own!

Right, I posted this on the bulls board, and have been ridiculed by virtually of all of them.

Here's what I put

Just comparing sides and the players in the posistions mentioned.

In bold the players i'd prefer in my side.

Matt Blaymire -- Halley
Damien Blanch -- Sheriffe
Sean Gleeson -- Sykes
Ryan Atkins -- Crookes
Aaron Murphy --Tadulala
Tony Martin --Menzies
Danny Brough --Jeffries
Oliver Wilkes -- Lynch
Tevita Leo-Latu -- Newton (consistency and due to playing more game time)
Steve Snitch -- Koppy
Dale Ferguson -- Langley Looking a real prospect.
Kevin Henderson -- Cook Cant pick either hendo been poor last few yrs however this year playing much better.
Jason Demetriou -- Burgess

Probably the toughest choice ive had to make, burgess a really talented player with a huge amount of potential / future in this game. Against JD, our captain fantastic tries his heart out every game puts 100% in, has had to overcome real adversity both individually and had to be at the fore-front of the recovery from the Watene and Walker Incidents - so for wakefield (my team) id choose Demetriou, for any other burgess would be my selection.

Brad Drew -- Solomona
Danny Sculthorpe -- Scruton getting some games under his belt, getting his fitness levels up, making many yards and chances.
Jay Pitts -- Worrincy
Kyle Bibb -- Donaldson



Any thoughts ?
Am i ridiculously wrong.

Some are ridiculously wrong. Especially Menzies and Burgess.


Matt Blaymire -- Halley No, I'd have Halley.
Damien Blanch -- Sheriffe Agreed.
Sean Gleeson -- Sykes Close, but Sykes was filling in at SO so Sykes, he's hit form recently.
Ryan Atkins -- Crookes Atkins, but Crookes looked good last game.
Aaron Murphy --Tadulala Yeah.
Tony Martin --Menzies No way.
Danny Brough --Jeffries Agreed, but Jeffries is improving and we need him for his try assists as Brough isn't a team player.
Oliver Wilkes -- Lynch Obv.
Tevita Leo-Latu -- Newton (consistency and due to playing more game time) Yeah.
Steve Snitch -- Koppy No, Kopzcak's been on form lately.
Dale Ferguson -- Langley Looking a real prospect. Give me Langers anyday..
Kevin Henderson -- Cook Cant pick either hendo been poor last few yrs however this year playing much better. Cook, been good in past couple.
Jason Demetriou -- Burgess I really have to question this, Burgess has been amazing so far I'd rather have Burgess than two Demetrious.

On paper maybe. Think Burgess has been no where near his best this year. All he does is go for big hit all the time, and the amount of times he turns his back on the ruck (ala Korkidas) is laughable for a world class forward!

It is !

Ewwenorfolk - read my comments about JD & Burgess.

JD's influence on our side cant be understated !!!!

Playing wise burgess is obv better, but overall for wakefield trinity ONLY jd for me would be the pick.

Your still mad for thinking Langley is the better player.

If you'd read the whole thread it was left on from another poster, talking about one of your players. You are the idiot.
