I also rate Shenton at Cas, but he is still a work in progress.

Look at the try ratio's Seniors wingers have scored over the last god knows how many seasons, next you will be telling me that Gardner (sp) is a free scoring try machine

The argument over how good senior WAS is irrelevant, its how good he is NOW that is important, and like some of our own squad he is past his best.

Yes i see now. Scott Donald's trys last season to this now he has switched wings certainly back up your argument. On the other hand Ryan Halls not doing too well outside an ageing past it Keef, nope no arguments there. Wait hang on.........

So you are saying that Senior is not past his peak at 33 years old?

No you are, the amount of trys his wingers have scored and are still scoring irrespective of their age or experience suggests otherwise.

OK fair enough but the try scoring stats of Seniors wingers have and still are saying he is one of the few class centres in SL and Gidley is included in that few as was Lyon as their respective wingers stats show.

Just to stir things up...

Surely the try scoring stats of the wingers that play on Seniors side are more indicative of the try scoring ability of the wingers themselves? Senior being merely one contributing factor to them getting the ball?

Scott Donald has been moved to the other wing this season and is not scoring the trys he has been for the last 2 seasons outside Senior. Coincidence? Hall is Seniors winger this year and is up near the top of SL try scorers. Coincidence?
