Bit of both......

ok, so do you mean you think Watkins will go to union?

Just dont think he's as good as everyone is making out. When you look at the GB/England Centres that were around in RL pomp then marking Watkins and Atkins as the best in the business is somewhat depressing.

Like Who? I'd say Watkins has as much potential as any centre we've produced since Schofield. Whether he reaches that potential I don't know but he's without a doubt a top prospect.

Exactly my question too. We don't have the best history when it comes to centres imo, Watkins could be one of the best for quite some time.

would say connolly and newlove were two pretty good uns

I think Watkins could be better than both.

Watkins is great with ball in hand, when his opposite number has the ball in hand he is a defensive nightmare.

With Slater going to get the full back job for the Roos in the World Cup Inglis will probably play at 4.

Kallum Watkins v Greg Inglis doesn't bear thinking about!

As opposed to the smaller slower Darrell Goulding coming up against him? The fact is whom ever comes up against Inglis, Folau, or Jennings is going to have their work cut out for them, it will be up to the England defenders as a unit to stop him getting any good ball.

If Rugby League was about pure athleticism, Dwayne Chambers would have been a GB Winger.

Watkins and Reed along with Hall and Charnley should be the international wing/centre partnerships for years to come.

Indeed. Luckily Watkins has got all the skills required to play centre as well as the athleticism.
