| Quote jinkin jimmy="jinkin jimmy"Well we've all got what we wanted in Sam starting at 6. It's now essential he starts better than last time out - and I believe he will. However, there's no escaping the fact that he was trapped in the headlights in the first half against the Aussies.
Credit to Smith for making the changes - many of his predecessors wouldn't have done it.
I'm not totally happy with things (Roby?) but it's time to offer unconditional support now!!'"
Roby played 80 mins and tackled his balls off, he was by far the most effective tackler on the pitch, he did more in defence than anyone.... League Express figures state he was our best tackler with 32 tackles, compare to Morley 10 tackles, McGuire 8 tackles, S Briscoe 4 tackles, T Briscoe 2 tackles, Lee Smith 9 tackles, even Tomkins who played well IMO was at only 16 tackles.

Maguire as had chance after chance decent SL level player will never be International.
Losing his place to a Rookie proves that

It means he was a young kid playing in a beaten team who had an off day.
Given the fact he was named in the SL dream team over McGuire what does that say?
Sinfield was controlling the forwards guiding them round the park ensuring that it went to the side that he favoured.
The fact is Tomkins showed more promise in that one game than McGuire has in his International career apart from 1 England "A" International back in the days of touring Australian sides.
McGuire is a cracking player and will go down as a Leeds great (not legend), Tomkins has the potential to go down as an England legend, something McGuire had when he first hit the scene but quickly showed he lacked the mental strength to realise that potential.

It doesn't say much does it? Kevin Penny anyone? McGuire had a great season. The difference is Tomkins is young and wasn't expected to do well, McGuire is expected to do well.
The 2nd paragraph I have highlighted is utter bollo#ks.
Should Sinfield have switched play to pass to Tomkins everytime just to make you happy?

No he should have played a more balanced game.
The fact that you compare Kevin Penny with Sam Tomkins shows a massive ignorance for the game of Rugby League.

Finally something we agree on!
But to be fair mate, he is a pretty effective if not limited half back at Sl level, you should not be too hard on the lad.

The Sam Tomkins that scored a try and brought us back into the game?
