Steff is a professional journalist and will interview lots of different folk. From the pieces I’ve read, he does so in a very objective manner. 

I do know that I’d prefer an objective well-written piece than something less so.
 
For a change Webb is probably newsworthy material to interview at this moment as he was a Gats regular and has been playing well so Wales ambitions are back again ( unlike sadly Cawdor who has dropped off a bit even though what 2-3 years younger than Webb?)

I don't know the chap, but Mr. Orders has written a piece about Dwaye's selection dilemma at scrum half.  Note of course that there can be few better placed than Dwayne to select a player for that position!

Here's an excerpt where the article has been steered towards Webb:
'The No. 9 the Scarlets will be facing, Webb, has also been on song, shining for the Ospreys against Montpellier in the Heineken Champions Cup last week after catching the eye against Leicester Tigers the Saturday before.

Boasting armour-plated self-belief — he'd fancy his chances going up against an amalgam of Gareth Edwards, Terry Holmes, Rob Howley, Antoine Dupont and Aaron Smith — he’ll also want to give Gatland a nudge.'

It has been suggested that our very own Steff Thomas has been converted to the other side by his new close working relationship with Mark (Webby) Orders. Well I regret to inform fellow posters that he has selected the team he feels that Gats should select & it contains 12 Ospreys in the 23 including, wait for it, Webb starting at 9. 

The omens are not good. Anyone who knows Steff very well please attempt an intervention before its too late & he picks Morgan Morris ahead of Faletau.Evil Smile

TBF after seeing the Ospreys dismantle pretty much every pack over the festive period I wouldn't have too much issue if they represented 1-7, possibly harsh on Carre who has played well.

It’s a cunning plan to minimise the points gathering potential of our neighbours during the 6N and help Scarlets climb the table.

Steff is, as Eddie Murphy would say, “deep, deep, deep undercover”.Wink

By far the worst, most one eyed article that man Orders has dribbled out of his mouth 

Laughable if he wasn't a journalist

The new Elvis apparently. He wouldn't have made it to the Judges House in a competition against some of the singing dressing room props I've played with.

Henry seems a likeable guy touch of pete the meat about him. Bit of a throw back to the roly poly props of yesteryear and always has a smile on his face. Order is a shocking writer but i’d rather read about henry than webb for the thousandth time

Anyone else noticed how quick orders is to pounce on any rumour that a scarlet player is being lined up by someone else, but equally quick to dispell rumours when one of his beloved ospreys is said to be on the move?

He wet the bed when he heard Hawkins was potentially moving, but boy was he quick enough to negate the rumour on wol.

A dreadfully bias journey.

The players who do leave before they reach 25 caps can buy virtual caps that can be swapped for real caps as they are achieved ....

Good one.
In 1972, Roy Bergiers scored that try and said "that was for you lofty"
