Re: Ian Lenagan makes me laugh
<r>It was a guy called Peter Deakin that masterminded the Bradford revival in 1995.<br/> He started the pre match entertainment program and Bull-mania and along with the teams success on the pitch Bradfords crowds peaked at 15000.<br/> It was not long before the RFU spotted the good work Peter was d...

Re: Rocky
<t>Has anyone considered playing Rocky in the centres?<br/> We've had injury problems in the centres this season but have used second rowers to cover.<br/> I'm sure Rocky could do a great job at centre, there's less pressure than at FB, he has the pace and ball skills to do a job.<br/> If there are ...

Re: Fans Forum Returns for 2015
<t>What are the most important topics that need to be addressed at the next fans forum?<br/> <br/> I have some ideas:<br/> Last seasons review and forward planning.<br/> Current playing squad and surplus salary cap still availible.<br/> Contracts of our young players e.g. Burgess and Sutton.<br/> Re...

Re: With Regret
<t>When I first started watching Wigan Rugby in the mid 60's I remember big Danny Gardener playing in the front row, he had an unusual build for a prop, he was very tall.<br/> In those days Rugby League was only a part time game, all players held full time jobs.<br/> From what I recall Danny was a D...

Re: Sam Hopkins
<t>It was strange when he wasn't included in the WCC touring squad yet they took JJ.<br/> It would have been great experience for him and made him feel part of the first team squad.<br/> Seems we might be losing another forward, at least short term.<br/> After reading Radder's latest blog is seems W...

Thoughts on Adam Sidlow
<t>It looks like we might loose HH and Andy Powell and if so would Adam Sidlow be a good acquisition to our squad. <br/> He can play Prop or Second Row and is a Wigan lad.<br/> At the moment our pack looks to be on the light side.<br/> He has the size and experience to bolster our pack and in my opi...

Re: Ferres Selection Puzzle
<t>Did McBanana give an after match press conference?<br/> He should have been explaining his team selection policy, why certain players were chosen and review their performances.<br/> IMO this has been the biggest problem, lack of communication with fans and press.<br/> I am sure at previous world ...

Re: Disappearing crowds at CC finals despite the official figures?
<t>There are many factors that affect the attendance. First the economic situation, many families have seen a decrease in their income over the last five years.<br/> Probably the most important reason that prevented some neutral WIGAN supporters going down was the fact it was the towns forth visit i...

Has Shaun Wane's contract extension at @WiganWarriorsRL for 2014 season had much publicity? Worth shouting about surely? #rugbyleague

Re: The Charnley Try ?
<t>This is another case of the RFL tinkering with the rules without clarifying the change. Most commentators have been saying the corner flag no longer counts as in touch,so I assumed this meant body and ball, now after this controversial incident it appears it only applies to the body. In this case...
