Re: Wigan squad for Catalans (R10)

I think he is at a crossroads. His game seemed to kick on after the Cats game last season, I had high hopes after that. Then he's out and not come back with the same intensity. I hope he can turn it around for his and Wigan's sake. You are right though. Atm there are a few players ahead of him. Hav...

Re: Wigan squad for Catalans (R10)

I am not sure that Byrne should keep his place in the team with the current virtually fully fit squad, still the potential for stupid penalties from him. I would think that once Walters is in the team and Cooper is fit, then Byrne should be left out. I also think Harvie Hill offers more than Byrne....

Re: Wigan squad for Catalans (R10)

much better 2nd half and 4 fantastic tries for different reasons. Smith and miski for the ability to see an unplanned play is on with the chip and kick from a 20m restart. The ball from Field to Keighran was out of this world and a nice little move for Faz to score with Wardle unselfishly turning it...

Re: Wigan squad for Catalans (R10)

much better for last 10-15 minutes

too much easy ball coughed up early on

Keighran looking promising and looks like he has a yard of pace about him (if we can see him in space)

Impact of Leeming and Mago seemed to have stepped our pace up a yard or 2

Re: Isa

I say this in partial jest, but 2 weeks with no Isa and two weeks the side he plays has been targeted to success. Isa leaves an Isa size hole. Nesemba will there though. we've seen and heard it before though havent we. Isa not good enough etc etc, but we miss him when he's not there. There's no dou...

Re: Kris Radlinski delivers unique insight into club’s salary cap planning, including marquee players

Have to agree that the cap should be linked to inflation bizarre that’s it’s not really its virtually criminal that they can let professional rugby players take a pay cut year on year (for every year the cap has been frozen). What other sport, let alone profession would allow that. Its only been si...

Re: Kris Radlinski delivers unique insight into club’s salary cap planning, including marquee players

thats an interesting interpretation of the cap rules as we arent using the club trained option. If the article is correct as that part isnt Rads words and its factually incorrect as Thompson cannot be home grown but is Federation trained (trained by Saints) so will cost us £100k ont cap so our cap h...

Re: Wigan squad for Hull KR (R9)

I’d like to see Field just keep things really simple this week and sniff around the ball carriers to try and take any offloads or follow up breaks/half breaks. We made a few on Friday and we had guys like Faz backing up but there was no sign of Field. His biggest attribute for me in his time here h...
