As mentioned already, he has a big heart but that isn't enough. He lacks size power and skill, nowhere near good enough along with several others.

Hamlin was dominated almost every hit up and had errors in his game. Watch the game people.

ONE player i hope Wigan get signed up long term is Joe Brown, i think he looks a good player for the future.

That is true, he was always tall but lean.
Now he is friggin massive.

Unconfirmed report via twitter that Wigan have signed Joe Brown a tall athletic fullback from Bradford, I think he turns 18yo today. From the little I have seen he looks a great prospect.

I've been told that Workington Town are keen on signing Jake Moore.

I think he is more of a second rower, not quite big enough for a prop imo.

He got run over the top of and missed more tackles than I have ever seen before, him and Cronk normally reserve their best for the big occasions, not this time.

Its worth remembering that he is only 20/21 and has already lost 18 months development due to his knee reconstruction, if he stays injury free the sky is the limit.

Michaels is totally shit, if he wasn't an Aussie none of you would think twice about him.
