Winterstein : Sat Jun 13, 2009 10:06 pm  

Thought he went very well today, ran hard and put in some good solid tackles, got plenty of game time and showed he was up to scratch with his fitness. Deserves to keep his place for the Quins game for me, hope he gets a chance to put in a string of performances cos to me looks like hes got real potential.

I like what I saw from him today, taken some time to get him here and in the first team, would be a shame to lose him if continues this progress, worth a two contract at least two see if he can go further,
its a matter of rolling the dice with frankie do we risk it or not,

I would back him

Seems a good prospect, did nothing to warrant being dropped next game?

However good he is, he's a bit expensive to put him on your shirt isn't he

There were a few posters that thought Pitts should have been selected ahead of Winterstein, well I for one was really pleased to see Frankie play.

On that display I am sure he can become an important addition to the team in our run in for a top 8 place.

Time Frankinstein was given a decent run in the team because he put himself about very well last night and for someone of his size, not exactly sluggish too.

On tthe subject of Kiwis, Stosic was awesome too. He's a real dogged, no-nonsense, good ol' fashioned prop, and a quality hit he dished out in the first half.

Agree entirely worth the effort to sign him, now he's in the groove showing his size and talent. However think the opposition pack was desparatley knackered even after 20 mins which makes the job easier.

From what ive seen hes been quite lazy at times,missed a tackle which allowed broughton to score near end.Hes a big unit just think he needs to get fit and could do with some confidence, should be a force in a couple of years.

To be fair to Frank, he did chase back 60m to break down the play before that and he was the only player onside to make a tackle on Broughton...

Bit rough on the lad there, at least he chased back and got into the line for the play the ball.

Would you not expect a winger with all that room to beat a second rower.

Seems to be coming along nicely, deffo worth a contract, offers much more than hendo, both in the short term and the long term.
