Mouth watering thinking of French and Field at 1 and 6. The doubt that is going to be in the oppositions mind will be absolutely huge. Who do you concentrate on? They’ll need to be so concentrated because one moments hesitation on French and he’ll go or if they over commit, he gives it to Field and ...

The way we go about things nowadays is just superb. I get the feeling Rads leads a lot of that, along with with guys like Matty Peet and it’s something to be really proud of. Opposition fans love to knock Wigan at every turn but I don’t see this sort of thing from many clubs elsewhere. They might do...

He’s been good since he came back in. Too little, too late for a Wigan career but he can help us and help himself by playing well for the remainder of his time here.

It’s pointless comparing Parcell and Powell because clearly they’re being asked to do totally different jobs but what I will say is that Parcell is class. Leeds dumping him a couple of years back sums up their recruitment and retention this last few years. He is so much better than anything they’ve ...

Barrie Mac admitted post match that him and JIB were literally counting down the tackles out loud at the end, as HKR were trying to hold on in the build up to the Miski try.

That is a pretty pathetic admission and something their bosses shouldn’t be happy with.

He’s an absolute bull of a player and seems a throughly decent lad. I’m really pleased for him to be getting the games and the plaudits at the moment. As pointed out, his carries from our end are priceless, especially in the bigger games. We need to jig the use of our quota around but if they can do...

Looked like he was over his issues tonight, which is really pleasing.

Not sure on his foot but the injury keeping him out until last week was described as a ‘lower abdominal injury’ by Peet a couple of weeks back. He said it’s lingered a bit longer than expected and his comeback was pushed back because of it. I agree that since about R4/5 he’s not looked 100% and I th...

The image of him wheeling away wagging his finger after Tomkins try in the 2010 Grand Final sticks in my mind. He was absolutely brilliant that day and it felt like at that moment he knew we’d won the game and the trophy.

We’ll be fine. I’m excited to see what Harvie Hill can do and after watching Nsemba yesterday, all the young lads must be looking at him for inspiration. Fingers crossed Havard isn’t too long. They’re not always the worst injuries elbow dislocations from memory but it might not be good news that it ...
