Gareth Widdop impresses again : Sat Mar 19, 2011 2:09 pm  

Good to see Gaz going well at 5/8 for the Storm and has played solidly in both opening games for the Storm. Made a great break today to put Billy Slater in for a record 114 tries for The Storm. Quick interview with a mate of mine Steve Mascord. http://stevemascord.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/gareth-widdop.wav Good work Gaz and keep it up. The Storm were very impressive today especially considering the past 12 months. So Professional no matter who plays for them.

Will take time for Gaz to get his footing... Almost see Slater coming 5/8th and Gaz full back eventually unless he progresses rapidly..

Just thought you might like to hear how well Gareth is going at Storm. Hopefully he re-signs soon (or goes back home to the mighty Fax ) http://www.foxsports.com.au/league/nrl-premiership/former-nsw-origin-coach-phil-gould-calls-melbourne-storms-gareth-widdop-the-find-of-the-season/story-fn2mcuj6-1226041373428 http://www.thebaistand.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8481 Halifax even got 3 mentions on the Sunday afternoon Penrith vs Storm game. Woo Hoo!!! Gareth had a great game with 3 try assists and 2 50m breaks. Looks like he's going to be a good un. GO THE FAX!!!

Disagree mate. Billy Slater hasn't got the fight to play in the line. Widdops defence is strong enough to play there. Also Widdop sees a better pass than Slater although Slater sees the slightest gap in the line from FB and he's through it.

I found this interesting article on Gaz... http://www.nrl.com/pivotal-switch-the-making-of-widdop-/tabid/10874/newsid/64391/default.aspx What What What!!!!! “It was a massive achievement for me, especially after only playing a couple of NRL games,” Widdop, who as a kid supported Bradford and Brisbane and looked up to Darren Lockyer, admits. Is this correct? He goes down a couple of pegs in my book if that's the case - just a demi god now..
