Re: Wigan squad for St Helens (Rivals Round)
To state the obvious decisions are able to be highly scrutinised using screens. In the past it was the officials decision. Wrong calls were made but there could be no “ evidence “ against the referee. Today fans see what happened on the big pitch side screen with constant replays. This means that ev...

Re: What would NRL-run Super League look like amidst latest reports
Whatever the final outcome, if any, I would hate it to become a draft system involving top clubs having to forward players to lower teams. I may be wrong but I believe this happens in American Football. It would produce a better all round “product” but one which would be artificially arrived at. Als...

Re: Sunday match
Unfortunately the ultimate growth of rugby league depends on media coverage. Women’s rugby union/football has taken off due to the media .
The game deserves a lot more respect. Will it ever get the hours and serious treatment it demands? I doubt it.

Re: Why?
I haven’t read all the posts and this could have been mentioned. Is this the Ainscough who played on the wing under Brian Noble? I think that he wasn’t happy with his defence.

Re: Why?
An interesting way of expressing your opinion.
I would agree that the early cup exit was disappointing. However the point I would like to make is that I came across people who lost interest in the sport in the 1980s when Wigan dominated. I ll reiterate my statement that the league needs strong teams.

Re: Why?
To add to my previous post. I have every confidence in Matt Peet. His approach to embracing all aspects of club management is refreshing

Re: Why?
I had been thinking at the start of the season “would I like Wigan to complete a clean sweep again this season “ and the answer is no. For the strength of the league and ultimately of Wigan we need strong challengers. Admittedly the manner in which Wigan can lose can be disappointing. Conversely see...

There is an article on Love Rugby League suggesting that our best players should be actively encouraged to go to Australia. This is in order to make them better players so we can beat the Aussies. It is a long article but towards the end he states thatplayers such as Nsemba, Smith, Welsby should be ...

Re: Vegas ko
There was a very quick mention on BBC last night that I didn’t catch properly to watch it on BBC i player at 9.15. I can’t see it being the game live and maybe it’s Sunday morning.
