| Quote vastman="vastman"That's the point, he - is - an - adequate - replacement! No where does that suggest he is as good, that is subjective/opinion and you don't have the monopoly on that even if you are deluded enough to think you and JK are thinking the same.
If Stosic had not cocked up, no one myself included would be suggesting we suggesting we would have chosen to replace Stosic with King. However there was no choice - was there - hence King was an adequate replacement all things considered - still with me
However for those who can't stomach me using the sainted Stosic as an example I gave you Sculthorpe as an alternative.
So one more time - King is an adequate prop who due to the circumstances at the time was probably the most adequate replacement for Stosic/King (delete to taste) available.

Yes I am deluded enough to think that JK and myself think the same on previous issue's debated with you, because it has been proved by team selection (i.e. spelling Hendo at prop, not picking King etc etc). And it depends on your definaition of adequate............as it can be taken to mean
as much or as good as necessary for some requirement or purpose; fully sufficient, suitable,.........
or
barely sufficient or suitable: Being adequate is not good enough.....
so either way you can't loose Mr V...
Happy 
It's just like some of the posters on the Newton thread saying if Tezza goes it's ok Cos we've got three hookers anyway (without Davey).......
But not if one was intended to play a lot of gametime at LF |

| Quote vastman="vastman"It's the context you have got wrong and for reasons best known to yourself won't give ground.
I'll try one more time to put it in a context that suits you.
With the time and money available after the Stosic fiasco I consider King as adequate. Especially when you consider SL props with the experience of King don't grow on trees, also Kear knows him and this must count for something. If you can name me an English player with as good a CV that we could have got in the time I'll be happy to accept him.
Finally you seem to have ignored the fact that I also included Sculthorpe ie both props who have left (perhaps I should have also included Bibey). In other words it wasn't meant to be a player v player comparison.
I'd have loved to have retained Stosic, but you run with what you have. HTH'"
Quick one, as I am busy as chuff and really shouldn't be bothering with this.
The context you portray isn't what was stated. Your post indicated so far. What you talk about now is King, based on what he did way before he came to us, and projecting ahead to what we all hope Kear and Broadbent will make of him. I don't at all diagree with that. I wasn't in the first place trying to start an argument, I was merely pointing out that as the first post read, I agreed with the vast majority of it other than the bracketing of Stosic against King. What I was getting at, is that on the basis of what we have seen so far, he isn't yet a replacement for Stosic. The reason I've not bothered with the Sculthorpe aspect is I don't disagree with that. With the sounds of it, were are not really in disagreement, once it has been further elaborated on. I'm not entirely sure that makes me the only one who has got the context wrong and won't give ground though; quite clearly, others interpreted that aspect of the post in the same way. |

Korki rocks!! Back to his best for me, massive against the rhinos!!!!
As for the newbies:
Morrison looks class, bj also, king for me no better than a replacement for bibey, millard, he's certainly done more for us than atkins has in the two games for the wire that I've seen!!! I think enough has already been said about "the new hooker"!!!!!
The garden is "looking rosey"!!!!!!! |

Don't get them started, adequate is a strong word.
