Message: [QUOTE="Jeba, post: 2486887, member: 1827"] Apples and oranges. Graham, Burgessx3, Ellis = forwards. Tomkins = back. The ESL style of play looks faster simply because it's more one out. There's less ball movement and more work done by the forwards. More work = they tire, which is when players like Tomkins can take advantage with their speed. IMO it would be so much harder for a half or fullback to dominate the NRL like he did the ESL, than it would be for a forward. When the poms play against Australia, some of their set play execution is laughable and they arent much better than defending it. He'd be worth looking at - but not throwing butt loads of money at. And spwn seriously, some of the names you've thrown up for us to sign, the Broncos used to laugh at the idea of even thinking about it. It was one of the reasons that we werent just another club in this competition. The founding fathers of Porky, Maranta & co established a culture in this club from day one. Sacrificing that culture by throwing money around at injury prone players who show no respect for fellow players and coaching staff was not part of that. Neither was throwing money at flash in the pan halfbacks who got dropped to Bartercard Cup or whatever they call it in NZ. [/QUOTE]
