I see the local experts are out in force. Percy isn't as good as Watkins, Sinfield better than all of our halves etc etc.
Well, pray tell, how did Watkins end up so good ? Because they stuck with a hugely talented kid and now he's a top player. You know, kind of what Saints are doing now in umpteen positions. Hall was another talented kid and look at him. Hardaker they took a chance on a lad from Featherstone, who has turned into a cracker. Moon a signing from Salford, where funnily enough we've just signed Tasi from, a man whom hasn't even got here yet and the resident experts have already christened 'our Tautai'.
Sinfield, Burrow, McGuire etc etc, are all products of Leeds. That doesn't happen too often. Had Leeds had to go out and sign such on field generals, they'd be nowhere near the same quality because they're unattainable. This kind of tripe that Saints need to go out and sign all of these players to compete is a fine narrative but where are they ? Rather than bemoaning the players we have give us alternatives.
Luke Walsh was voted 7th in the Dally M the year we signed him. Travis Burns one of the top 6s in the comp and had a choice of us or Wigan. Walmsley is arguably the best prop in the country, Roby probably the best player in the country, Vea and Greenwood looked superb strike threats before both being decimated with injury, Turner is our top try scorer etc etc.
Leeds have a nucleus of experienced, big game players that know exactly what they're doing. That's why we lost Friday. They're better than we are, it's that simple. Does that mean it's the end of the world ? No, it doesn't.
Some of our supporters don't deserve the club they support. Any mug holding Warrington up as some form of shining example needs their head testing. Leeds are a shining example but let's see how they look next year without Sinfield and Peacock.
