Well I think Senior has been solid which was about what was expected of him.

Did anyone really think he would have been a stand out player in this world cup?

What's worrying is he is still head and shoulders above most english centres (and probably wingers!)

I dont completly blame Senoir for is defence you have blame the Smith because he used to use the same tactics for Leeds putting him on the inside of Burrows and that where most trys came down that side i know a few Pro have noticed the weakness in Smiths defencive plan.

The right side of Hock or Wilkin / Gleeson / Gardner was far, far worse defensively.

Its OK bagging Senior for not being as good as the Aussie centres, but he's not exactly in his prime now is he?
In 2003 / 2004 he was at least as anything the Aussies or Kiwis had.
Its not his fault that no other English centre has emerged to dislodge him from the team.

Its fairly obvious you havent got a clue.

You think the fact Senior has done okay in a competition which has proven to be rubbish is a decent defence of a player who has just shown himself to be garbage against the very best.

No need to come back to your idiotic point.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

if he's a shambles then wellens do not pass go, go directly to a bottom half SL club or national league 1.

wellens has never been in the same class as keith, and when wellens is keiths age he will be only fit enough to run the tee and water on(if the ref stops the clock for him)

Why bring someone else into a keith Senior thread?

Because he's comparing him to Senior, just a thought...

More like he's the school snitch who's been told off so brings someone else into it to deflect the attention from him

IMO the best value player of the SL era. But past his best. But but still the best in his position by a country mile, unfortunately.
