Gibbs will be a different player to Murphy - and one in whom others will see things that in their view, makes him a better player.

Both players will fulfil vital but differing roles at the club.

In our next premiership year - Gibbs will be a clear standout player and will be seen to have arrived as an elite football talent.

This was really evident yesterday at trainng. Deisel worked indivdually with Judd, Wiggins and maybe 2 or 3 others. But he brings something else that i hadnt realised before.

He was out the front of a lane group. The others infront of the other lanes were Bradley Montgomery ect. Anyway, Deisel was kicking the ball to his leading players in a purposeful mongrel manner, off both feet. This was putting his players under increased pressure as opposed to the other groups with pretty lace out passes.

The second thing he did was pull Lappin back into line. Lappin was part of his group and was flowering around. Deisel spotted him out of the corner of his eye and kicked the ball fair into his gutts while he wasnt looking. Result, Lappin stopped Flowering around and stopped distracting everybody else.

We need people like Deisel around the place.

How did Skinny take to be singled out in such a way baz? Did he seemed pissed off by it or did he take it well?

He seemed to take it really well. He switched back on in that exercise and I saw him maybe 10 minutes later working reasonably hard in a forward exercise.

Poor form from Lappin - he is a development coach. Has some way to go if this is any indication.

I agree. It took me by surprise to see him flowering around. Maybe with the pressure off him as a player he might think he should lighten things a bit, however I believe if he wasnts to do that then do it in the rooms, not on the track
