Only FC fans can look for weaknesses in our heros eh ha ha

True. My love for Richard Whiting will never waiver haha.

I just think his game would be better suited to the fringes after virtually working out wide his whole career.

Ditto,
but would swap him for that worldbeater fatty murrell, jesus he must eat breakfast at the same cafe omeley goes to

But if you look he does tend to go to the edges every time

Absolutely. My 'Murrell for England 13' petition doesn't seem to have taken off though :/

your the only fekker on it thats why

...ooops sorry murrells just signed it too


its been many years since i seen a pro players gut hang out the bottom of a shirt

Actually his Mum put her scribe to it as well haha.

Always said I would have given him the 6 shirt when Cooke left, and put Horne at 1 then.

Great player.

and what a superb pass from goldie for his try too..... he maybe is for now that link we have been missing but he certainly impressed me

his dad didnt tho, fathers day is an issue in his house

for me i like whiting at 3. his defensive assets are great, and he can also help winger out for high kicks.

he has a good rugby brain and becoming a legend in my opinion.

Reminds me of Simon Grix at Warrington does a great job and never lets the team down

Played nearly 200 games for us and still only 27. Could easily reach 300+ Also has a good scoring rate with 60 tries. Profile says 2 drop goals but I can't remember any

I think he got them during his first season with us, he played in quite a pivotal role that season when he played for us IIRC. Seem to remember him getting a drop goal against Bradford at home when they were a force, not sure on the other though.

Both in 2004. One against Bradford as mentioned above and one in the Challenge Cup away game at Leigh.

I've been a big fan of Rich since he first arrived at the club. A friend on twitter commented that he was the most complete footballer to grace the black n white since Knocker, and I have to agree.
Saying he is too slow is like saying Angelina Jolie could do with being a bit better looking !

so you think he's fast, fair enough, if you also think Jolie is stunning then I suggest you got to Specsavers.

FC squad 2013, Rich Whiting...........and a few others !!! First on teamsheet for me and has been last number of years !!!

in which position?

Unfortunately for Richard, almost anywhere, any team would love to have him, but he's ours !!

It was interesting reading Paul Cooke's opinions on him in tonights paper. He had him as MOM and rates him very highly.

She would be if she had her lips reduced.

For me , Whiting sees the game 2 plays ahead of most players , what he lacks physically , his brain more than makes up for .

Ok, he's not Speedy Gonzales, but he's not slow either is he? People go on too much about his speed if you ask me.
Speaking as a woman, I just used Jolie to illustrate a point, she's not to my taste, but a lot of people think she's a stunner!
