IIRC When we interviewed Tom earlier in the season he told us that he had obtained a degree associated with the petro-chemical industry, he was reluctant at that stage to carry on and obtain his masters degree as it would mean full time study in London for a further two (?) years.

Very hard to choose a player out of that performance but for me, if there was a stand out it was Tom. He was class in go forward and immovable in defence. Not only that but he was playing, severely, through the pain barrier toward the end and should of come off earlier but just kept putting his hand up to carry on. Immense effort and hopefully won't be without him for too long!

It wasn't seen on TV, but when Watkins put that great shot on Armstrong, and his shoulder was hurt for the second or third time, Watkins leaned over him to see if was OK, helped him up, it was a true mark of respect........



If a scene could paint words , that said "I'm the best centre in SL, but you are marking me out of the game, and playing me off the park!"

Tom was brave to carry on you could see it was hurting

He said he won't be out too long it's a AC I jury and you can never tell

Hope it's only a few week

We need him back ASAP

So, is he going to court to get it sorted, or hospital?!

(I-Pads, eh!)
