| Quote morleys_deckchair="morleys_deckchair"Paul Wood has easily been in the top 5 props in superleague this season.... probably warringtons best.
2169 meters from 307 carries
528 tackles
36 offloads
to put people like peacock in above him is bordering on the ridiculous.'"
Missing tackles and dropping the ball were always Wood's downfall, how is he on those?
And Peacock has come up with 2 kicks in general play, you can't underestimate the impact of a forward with a kicking game.

he has obviously been told to go out and play in an expansive way.... and yes it creates handling errors and missed tackles... but the majority of these have been when were 30/40 points up and throwing it around....
There have been plenty of times when he has started a try scoring moved by offloading under 4 or 5 tacklers... or he has broke through a tackle to offload and put someone clean through.

Understatement of the year.
Thats like saying Rupert Murdoch is not very popular right now.

| He's still one of the best on his day, but even that is a million miles away from the rampaging prop that battered defences apart 3/4 years ago. He should hang up his Rep boots and concentrate on giving his best for Leeds.

Have you ever considered a career writing fiction novels?

| He was a class act in his day but for me he has past it now.
There are better props in our game now and as a few have previously mentioned Mossop is a very good player who will shine for England in the near future.

I'd like the throw Larne Patrick into the mix, very quick for a prop, has good feet and will run at/through anything! Definately one for the future!

| No one mentioned it but Peacock was absolutely woeful for England in the Exiles game, he made mistakes, missed tackles and had no go-forward whatsoever.
The only hope for him is that he has taken note of how Petero Civoneceva has turned things around, last season he was poor by his standards but has been back to his best this year.

| Quote Dunbar="Dunbar"I have to say, I am trying to see what everybody else does in Mossop, I would love another English prop on the scene that can mix it at international level but I haven’t seen anything so far that says he will be a great. In fact, every time I have seen Wigan this year, Coley has been the best Warriors prop
As for Peacock, his form is poor at the moment and he was dominated at the weekend which is very unlike Peacock. I am not ruling him out of returning back to his past form as he has been superb for Bradford, Leeds and England/GB over the years
Come the 4 Nations, I hope one of two things happens, either Peacock is fit and firing or McNamara has the guts to drop him – the worst thing of course would be to see peacock selected and play poorly – as well as being bad news for England it would be a terrible shame for Peacock to lose a well earned international reputation'"
Your right about Coley. From being average to poor a couple of years ago, he's now one of the best in SL and we miss him when he doesn't play. Peacocks form is poor but I'd put this down to lack of match fitness and I'm pretty sure he'll just get better as the season goes on.
As regards Mossop, although he's not yet the finished article, he's been close to MOM on several occasions and I reckon he's going to mature into a great.
