Re: Time to reassess Adrian Lam?

Unquestionably, there is a different feel about the club now under Peet but to be fair to Lam, coaching a team through the height of the pandemic was quite a challenge. Despite this, he was seconds away from us winning the Grand Final in 2020 and in 2021, he was effectively without French, Field and...

Re: Tommy Leuluai

The Fa'asavalu tackle that everyone has mentioned is a clear one, I also particularly enjoyed that cracker he did on Blake Austin at Warrington in the cup in 2019 (?) mentioned above and one on Ben Currie that led to a try a couple of years ago, but there have been numerous others every season. Has ...

What a tackle that was. "12 stone of solid granite" Ray French said on commentary at the time. 1987-88 Steve Hampson was the best full back in the world

Leeds followed by Leeds

Sounds like the Rhinos are in usefully poor form ahead of our two fixtures so if we can get some bodies back we might be in with a decent shout in both. However, I always hate it when we play the same opponents in the cup and league in very close proximity, because for whatever reason-probably psych...

Re: Junior Nsemba

I haven't seen / read these comments but does anyone seriously think that all young British players going into RL these days don't think exactly like this? The salary cap, diminishing TV deals and extinct international scene have created such a gulf between Super League and the NRL that that any pla...

Re: Matt Peet provides latest on Brad Singleton injury with timeframe confirmed

[ Did he play for our academy or something? I don't remember this if he did. I think when they say "boyhood club" in this case they are referring to the fact that Singleton was a Wigan fan when he was growing up in Barrow. He once published a photo of him aged 12 with Sean O'Loughlin I se...
