[QUOTE="LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan), post: 1098919, member: 70842"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.therugbypaper.co.uk/latest-news/360568/christian-wade-i-was-always-wondering-why-i-couldnt-catch-a-break/[/URL] IMO not a great look "All of a sudden I'm competing against Chris Ashton for the [England wing] spot, I'm like 'I was on tour I did Lions, why am I having to compete'. "But obviously I'm trained to have an underdog mentality because of how I've always been overlooked, so whatever, bring it on. "So Ashton gets picked for Australia, under pressure because the media were asking why I wasn't playing. We just about won and he didn't really do nothing [sic], but that's usual anyway, I don't know why people get excited about him cause he just gets on the end of everything. "If I played in the teams he played in I would've had the number one record [for most Premiership tries] five, six years ago." Ashton comes across as a bit of a knob, but if a Pro winger can't see what Ashton brings to the table then he should look at himself, Ashton is IMO one of the best strike runners ever in Rugby Union his lines and ability to read defensive lines in his prime (Even now) is second to none. Didn't have the natural talent Wade had but Ashton is one of the all time great finishers IMO. [/QUOTE]
