Watmough v Glenn Stewart

For all those who have come on here bagging Watmough's contribution this year, compare it to what Souths are getting from Stewart. Yes, Watmough hasn't been as good as what he was in a dominant pack, but he's busting his gut having a go for us. I don't see the same with Stewart.

  • Watmough is just hitting his strapps. He needed some time to fit in and now he is proving his worth

    I'm with you iamnot.

  • In all honesty he is yet to prove himself in the blue and gold. He has made errors at crucial times in a fair few games now and given away a lot of penalties, so you can't blame the fans for not being that thrilled with his performance so far. That said he had his best game for the club by far last Saturday so hopefully he continues to improve.
  • Watmough has always had errors in his game, and I think he has been playing injured. Stewart was good for Souths early in the season and then missed a few weeks. I think tonight was his 1st game back. So far Stewart has probably been better, I think that will turn around in the back half of the season. Watmough suits the style of play that Arthur is looking to implement and now that it he has given the ball playing away he is starting to show his value. 

  • Stewart has been Souffs best forward.

  • He does stand out for them. So what does that say about the rest of their forwards....

  • I think Stewart is still adjusting to the difference in style between Inglis and B. Stewart. Inglis wants the ball early, whereas B Stewart liked to run off a good ball. In effect, G Stewart was money-ball to B Stewart's running game, so G Stewart is not having the same impact in attack. But G Stewart's been defending well, targeting playmakers.

    Watmough is coming good I think. He's running straighter and not over-playing his hand.
