Obst is a terrific player and would be first name down on my team sheet. Pound for Pound one of the best in Super League and i am sure he would tackle Goliath if he had to.

I have been saying for a while for mine Sam is the most under-rated player in SL.

The radio commentary went something like this about one of his tackles on Fat Feka:

"Obst, who's about 2' 3", stopped the big prop dead!"

Isn't it nice to have pivot's who can tackle! Obst, Grix and even Drew.

whould you have Obst over Billy Conway in his prime?

: Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:18 pm  

Probably yes, i think he is just about doing enough although BC will always be a legend.

the difference between sam and some of those players is that sam never stops working. fantastic team player, defence and attack, (without attitude)
