Re: Widnes v Wigan

<t>The problem with Gelling is that he is simply not a professional. Holding the ball in one hand and showboating is fine if you keep hold of it and do something with it but not if you lose the ball in a tackle near your own line. His second try sums him up. Wigan have a non-regular kicker - it is a...

Re: Tuson

<t>I liked Tuson as a player but it's hard to deny that he hasn't really come on in the last 2 years. He seemed as if he would be the ideal dep for Lockers but I'm not sure that's true any more. Other young players are beginning to overtake him in the pecking order.<br/> <br/> Good luck to him thoug...

Re: Referee for Sunday

<t>I think we should be upfront here. He made a giant cockup and paid the price of being stood down but now I don't have any problem at all with him as referee. He also keeps up with play as well as anyone.<br/> <br/> Better than having Steve Ganson returning to action (ho ho) or the appalling Thale...

Re: 8 Warriors Named in England Academy Side

<t>Could it be we might be the first club to really crack the Academy plan? Lots of promising kids from way back and from all kinds of clubs are around at the moment and are journeymen (though there's nothing wrong with that - every club needs workhorses) but we might just be the club that can put t...

Re: London v Wigan

<t>OK - let's get the negatives out of the way first. London were truly wretched. They seemed frightened - not physically (although they certainly didn't compete for the high ball) but more scared of what the score would be by the end. They've always been poor defensively but now they have little or...

Re: Referee for Sunday

<t>Bit unfair. I think Sky were hoping for a deal like ITV 7 ESPN for the FA Cup. Each shows one (or more) matches en route to the Final and then they both show the Final itself.<br/> <br/> I'd he happy with that - more happy if BBC lost the contract but the Final is one of those 'Listed' matches th...

Re: Referee for Friday

<t>Another match with no Thaler. Someone up there is seeing sense.<br/> <br/> Wasn't it him who cocked up big-time in Widnes v Wakey?<br/> <br/> Genuine question - I thought he gave Wakefield advantage after a Wakey knock-on and then failed to bring it back when the advantage was lost. Was he right ...

Re: Who will we get to replace Pat?

<t>As documented by almost everyone, Foster is hopeless under a high ball and Dixon has no idea of defence. He's incredibly quick (but so was Kevin Penney) and that makes him stand out in a truly awful London side.<br/> <br/> Lineham looks interesting as he's quick, big(gish) and knows where the lin...
