[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 666662, member: 57076"] Giteau is actually an excellent tackler, very underrated. Ppl look at him being this "small" inside center and then Wilko's very well documented made-mainstream defensive ability and figure Toulon will miss that at the 10. They're roughly the same dimensions/weight btw., again with Wilko looking like the one with an advantage. Tankier physique, but Giteau's no sissy. The Drop Goal thing for sure, "Mr. Drop Goal" Wilkinson. But then there's all the rest I mentioned there, and I do see Toulon being a more offensive team this year. Giteau throws those long skip passes with pinpoint accuracy, changes direction so well, makes those perfect chips ahead...it's Wallaby vs England fly-half play really. With Wilko you get the drops, with Giteau you get flashier attacking, but both are very sound in all those other aspects of the 10 position. [/QUOTE]
