Kemp if you see my team I've not dropped Arundel from centre, I still think he will play but I'm telling you now, at the moment e is average. He has not done anything in superleague to be classed as excellent yet. I just think people on here need to relax abit as he is not proven yet. I hope he proves me wrong this year but unheard what your saying. Apart from did you go hull KR last year. First 4 Hull KR tries were all scored down his side of the field so you need to see where I am also coming from. I would still pick him but I wouldn't rate him at the level some do on here.

I haven't described him as Excellent as yet, I do think in time he will be better than Shenton, But he is more than capable at this level. I wouldnt just say he was Average, He is good, And going to keep getting better with the more came time.

As for the Hull Kr game, I was there, And i think he may have missed 1 tackle for the tries, A lot was to blame by the second row at the time leaving them short. Its very easy to criticise the men out wide when overlaps occur, But the majority of the time, Its the men inside who have made a rash judgement and left them short.

As you know, Or may know. My opinion is biased, I have known Joe for years, But having watched him improve ridiculously over the last 2 years, I seriously think he is going all the way. He has a winners attitude.

I how he does go all the way mate and turn into a great player but I just dont think he is there yet. I know you and Joe are friends also so I hope you are right and he comes out against wakey, proves me wrong and rips them apart.

Those tries were all down to Rangi.

Only place McG i can see fitting in come MM is the bench, i think Arundel will only improve on his already impressive displays and Isa (despite only playing 3/4's of a friendly) looks a good talent, McG's versatility could be a dnager off the bench, been able to cover FB, wing, centre, 6&7

You can never blame a halfback for defence. Tries were between centre and second row. Players know halfbacks ain't the best defenders so everyone else should cover them. I was there and it weren't Rangi. Trust me.

I think he could be blamed for one, They were already short, And he shot out

But for my reckoning, The second row was more to blame than Joe

I know. If he doesnt make it to the International stage, It wont be because of lack of dedication off the field

McGoldrick should be 18th man. Surplus to requirements until we get an injury.

Like others have mentioned. I wouldn't leave him out of 17 as he can cover all over park.

He is very versatile and can be destructive in attack when he's on his game. Unfortunately his defence can be a real weak link - the first thing that happened after he came on last week was Hull scoring where he was covering.
