He wasn't awesome he was ok.

It really makes me laugh on here how people get so carried away.

He did ok in a poor team on the day.

Powerful in defence, excellent lines and yardage in attack, and clever kicks through to put the Quins under pressure.

You're right he was average.

Wilkin seemed to do alright for his first match back after a month out.

And put into context of his first match back in a month, very pleased indeed

The lines he runs are what people don't notice.

Remember against Wigan at Murrayfield when he didn't play, and Long/Cunningham were running across the line looking for runners, and there were none?

I don't know what some people need to see from him before recognising his ability. Calling him average is absolutely insane and makes me wonder what game some people are watching. He is a pivotal player for us without a doubt.

I don't care what anyone says but I'm free to say what I think.

And IMO he is just ok and nothing more.

He looks way out of his depth when he played against kiwis and Aussies.

He does a job and nothing more.

So you're basing your opinion on the fact he hasn't stepped up to the plate at international level, when the evidence is there to see that he is a top player at Super League level?

Listen ski, I think he is a ok player and nothing more.

People seem to get carried away when he plays ok.

IMO he was out of this world against Leeds in cup but that's the only game that stands out.

And can I Add that wilkin was 1 of my fave players and I thought he would go on to captain saints but he has stayed at the same level for 2 years now.

I'm intrigued to know where this grudge you appear to have against him has come from...

St Pete is the guy who thinks Daryl Goulding is better than Martin Gleeson and Stephen Wild is better than O Loughlin/Hock
