I keep reading and keep hearing that his attack isn’t good enough, he isn’t dangerous enough, creative enough etc. Top try scoring hooker in Superleague-Sam Powell Top assist making hooker in Superleague-Sam Powell (joint) He’s turned in to a top player for my money. He’s tough as they come, his wor...

Does anyone think that the departure of both Greenwood and Wells suggest that we may have a mid season import lined up? Just thinking hypothetically, if Isa or Faz are injured against Huddersfield, how much strength in depth do we have to cover 11 or 12 (excluding Smithies or moving Partington or B...

Listened to a couple of podcasts when he was over and it sounded like his shoulder is still absolutely wrecked. He said he’d done a light swim (think it was a swim but it wasn’t over exerting whatever it was) and the following day he was in agony. He needs a few surgeries to try and get it in a stat...

It’s a good sign that it’s tough to narrow it down to 3 players. I’d probably go-

Guys like Farrell, Partington and Bibby had very good games also.

It may have been the injuries but he’s just never kicked on. He’s a decent player but usually you look at a half and think ‘he’s a running half’ or ‘an organising half’ or ideally both but with Shorrocks it’s been tough to really work it out. Maybe he’s never been given enough responsibility when it...

Fully agree with us needing an identity. What are we? What is our go to game plan? Our style of play? Lam has been here for a year and two games and we look as far away from knowing as we did in his first game in charge at Saints last Feb. He talks of expansive rugby and he makes your ears prick up,...

We only need one new recruit and it isn’t a player.

Stops thinking the balls a bar of soap and we’ve got a cracking prop. Clark, bibby, hastings, Burgess and maybe french would get my faith back for IL and KR if all of its true. Still shy of a hooker but that would be definitely be an improvement on recruitment Would a Hooker be needed if Powell kee...

It’s on the Wigan Post site today that Bateman has said he is thinking of applying for citizenship and is in talks to extend his Canberra deal.

No surprise. It sounds like Canberra are happy to accommodate his trips back to the UK when they can and that’ll make it easier for him to stay down under.
