[QUOTE="Scotty, post: 1077721, member: 74100"] To me Slade is not a player that breaks a game on his own. Manu can smash through defences or hold players like no one else which gives Slade time, if the 12 isnt holding defenders then there's more pressure on your 13 who forces a pass or tucks it but when he has time he can look 'world class' drawing players and offloading bringing the wingers into play. Slow ball and he can look average. Smith can be under immense pressure and still get it away accurately or step and run so to me thats the difference between someone who is world class(he isnt yet but has all the signs of being) and Slade who isnt but has the talent to look it of provided with the right conditions. Steward and Dombrandt running smart lines while Manu is holding defenders and slade and Smith have time to pick their options COULD be class.... Please start Randall, that running threat could actually enhance it not to me mention the faster delivery and hold youngs back as an experienced head to calm it down if Randall isnt performing. Its is a risk though [/QUOTE]
