Ellis arrived and had to be shown the basics. He is very average, despite what you may think'"
so average that wests wanted to move him 12000 miles so he could play for them.
so average that he's played what, 20 games out of 23 this season?
so average that hes made over 500 tackles
so average that he's amassed almost 2000 meters
so average that he has over 250 hit ups...
which puts him in the top few at wests in all those stats...
his stats suggest hes above average, in a team that currently sits 5th in the NRL....
I presume youre an aussie?...who are generally very quick to bag the 'pohms' and very reluctant to award praise....
however, if you want to play it that way....matt king, a well respected aussie test star, has looked like he needs to be shown tha basics for a large amount of his warrington career...!!!! |

Morely eventually got punted because he couldn't grasp the fact he had to tackle below head height.
Carney was reasonable .....but he was actually Irish ...and if rumours are to be believed....was 'close' to Matty Johns
Ellis is very over rated and I expect him to be back in SL before too long.'"
Despite Wests coach saying that Gareth Ellis has been their star player so far this season? |

I notice the difference in the way that gets put accross these days.
For the last 4 months or so he's been very good, not world class yet, but way above average.
Still some to make up for. |

Im sure I remember reading he had some sort of get out clause where he could move to an NRL club for free. |

Really, seems you're the only one who thinks so. Thankfully you're never right.

Flanagan has not signed with West's
From the West Tigers website
An article in this week’s Rugby League Week claims Wests Tigers have signed one of the best young back-rowers in England in Wigan forward Mark Flanagan.
The article states Flanagan has signed a two-year deal. The 21-year-old can also play half, five-eighth and hooker.
Wests Tigers Recruitment Manager Warren McDonnell said the article was not correct.
“Mark has not signed with Wests Tigers. We have spoken to Mark and his management and have sent him a contract to look at.’’ McDonnell said.
“Should Mark sign the contract, we will announce it once we receive it. At this stage, it is just speculation.’’
www.weststigers.com.au/default.a ... y&id=19452
No mention of Burgess either.
Lots of rumors and speculation it seems. |

Simple, your average RL player is too thick and/or stubborn to learn a new language. |

I still think it is good news from an England point of view but I would like to see a Sam Tomkins or a Richie Myler go over there for a couple of years and see what happens.
Our backs don't have good records over there in comparison to the forwards. Richie Mathers and Chris Thorman spring to mind.'"
easier for the forwards to make the step up.
mathers had potential and tansey was getting better every week |

Ellis has been ok in a p*ss poor Tigers pack.
He still makes really dumb mistakes and he couldn't make a good defensive read to save his life!

Carney was reasonable? well if to be the top try scorer in the nrl you only have to be reasonable the nrl must be a poorer league league than i thought.
Morley seemed to go well when he was knocking aussies forwards all over the park.
Ellis is over rated? well his own coach said he was pivitol to wests success, and other nrl players have escribed him as 'just about the best back rower in the comp' and 'awesome' or do you know more about the nrl than the coaches and players of the nrl? |

Wouldn't an English player count as non-federation trained from Les Catalans point of view? |
