I wonder what the reaction on these boards would have been if Watkins or Cudjoe had thrown the ball to the touch judge as often as Jennings did

It was poor conditions today and a player like Jennings has probably never felt cold like that, he did it twice.
Jennings is not know as a ball handler but when he steps on the pedal not many can catch him especially over 0-30 yards.

Just take a look at what you have written

An Australian centre is ‘not a ball handler’, I can’t remember another era when the Australian centres were forgiven for not being able to pass because they could run fast

And I can’t agree that the conditions were a factor – I would forgive a few handling errors (catching) in those conditions but was it really so cold he couldn’t pass the ball?

I wonder what the reaction on these boards would be if sinfield dropped as much ball, and caught on the last as much as thurston.

Sadly Rooster often has problems separating fact from fiction.

Nope. I'm not.

Are you smart? No need to answer.

No need for insults Booster, I guess you don't have a sense of humour then.

There have been many outside backs that are not great at passing in both directions at speed.

Look at the 2008 World Cup it appeared that the majority of the English team could neither pass or catch in a reasonable manner.
Who was the English Half that could not pass to his right so he would turn his back to the defense and always pass to his left?

Having been there, weather was certainly a factor. Rain was coming straight at them.
I can't imagine Jennings ousting Slater with Inglis moving but they were horrible conditions to prove yourself.

I do have a sense of humour. You make me laugh for example.

As for insults. I let your little digs go through to the keeper



Anyway enjoy the World Cup Buggo me old matey chum.
