Re: Wane - "The best thing that's happened to us".

<t>Wanes attitude has been that we have been close in Grand Finals so his tactics work and therefore no need to change. If we are not careful we will get left behind because any decent coach at other clubs will be looking for something new to improve their sides while we stagnate. The only person th...

Re: FARRELL 10 OUT OF 10

I think Bateman shone in the first half. Unfortunately, I think he had to do too much because others didn't take their share and as a result in the 2nd half he was much quieter

Re: Wigan young player developement

<t>Since Bennett has been announced as England coach I have watched quite a number of interviews with him. 2 things have stood out. Firstly he expects his players to give their absolute best for each other every single week. Secondly and to me most importantly, he looks at the skills of his players ...

Re: Powell to step up.

<t>MM distributes the ball from the ground and rarely takes a step or runs from dummy half so the markers are not held in position. There is no disputing his defensive qualities. SP may add a dimension to attack but is never going to be the same as MM in the defensive line.<br/> There is another opt...

Re: Powell to step up.

I can't agree with you Whelley. A number of tries came from a line break and no full back anywhere in sight. Am I wrong or isn't the full back supposed to be the last line of defence? I am not saying he may have stopped any of the tries but he should at least be there

Re: Wigan Brisbane

<t>We have reached a couple of Grand Finals so the coaching attitude has been one of not needing to change things, only to tidy it up. How many other clubs are happy to stand still? We should be looking at improving and getting smarter year on year. Other clubs have seen our plays and systems for a ...

Re: Wayne Bennett

<t>Potentially the best thing to happen to English RL in a generation. All we need now is IL to tap him up while Brisbane are here and get us the best.<br/> <br/> As for those who hope for Wane to work as his assistant and learn from the master. He was assistant to Madge but decided to do his own th...

Re: Sean Edwards inducted to Hall of Fame

WW can you tell me which union club he switched codes to play for please? My memory must be faltering as my understanding is he left because Dorahy wouldn't allow him a day off each week to spend time with his baby son in London

Re: Sam out of Test series

<t>the Wigan of old would play him until he has started on the decline with the best years behind him then sell him to Leeds. I remember walking away from Headingley with 2 old boys having an over the street argument. The Wigan supporter finished by gesturing he had to go in a different direction an...

Re: Hampshire

<t>Something I don't think has been mentioned so far........ Goal kicking. I seem to remember Rocky having a great record at Academy level. Based on Smiths record having Rocky as goal kicker would have meant a fair few points in almost every game.<br/> <br/> I am sad to see someone with such amazing...
