Quote ="doc-rhino"I did say he doesn't get everything right. Buderus recovered from his leg injury better than diskin for me.
Ablett has never let anyone down in the centres and haedaker ended up replacing watkins which was perhaps more luck than judgement for everyone.
Didn't you want hardaker @ stand off and not centre. Certain games it may be good to try him there this year if going to be attack minded .'"
Sometimes I make flippant impetuous contributions.....sometimes (not often
) I make more considered opinions.....but still within the limitations of being no more than a fan of the game.
Hardaker excites me more than any other has done for many years. He exudes confidence, skill and a good rugby brain. I was one of those disappointed when he was dropped from the threequarters, but yet Ablett was stll retained there. The latter I do like incidentally, but as a capable LF, not a no-more-than-a-competent centre.
In a relatively short time Hardaker will have no problem in handling the responsibility at SO....in the meantime I am more than happy to see him command a starting spot in the centres.
Watkins too incidentally looks exciting I'm sure most if not all would agree, but he [ihas[/i been somewhat more mistake prone than Hardaker....and of course, he's yet to prove his long term fitness, after what - already - seems to be numerous injury ommissions since his debut. Of course I hope he kicks on in 2012 and .....who knows......Jack Reed may be the only incumbent centre stopping the Leeds pair becoming this season's international pairing.

......but I do seem to remember the afore mentioned prefering a certain Mr Diskin to Buderus.... and Ablett in the threequarters, at the expense of Hardaker
