Re: New Deal for Jake Wardle

Let's not pretend that this means he will be here for 5 years.

However, still good news and a very good centre imo. Must be one of the first names on the teamsheet.

Re: Wigan Squad for Salford

We don't don't really deserve that IMO, but shows were a champion side when we pull one out of the bag in the last five minutes. Helped by Salfords brain explosions I must say. On the French performance, Id rather have a player that wasn't playing at his best but his last 5 minutes won us the game,...

Re: Kaide Ellis leading the way in iconic No.13 jersey

That is an absolute joke of a decision and bordering on a human rights one at that.

Re: Smiths kicking

I'm not an RL coach, so haven't done the analysis, but I would have thought that a "high hanging" kick vs one that "finds space", each have their own pro's and con's. Theoretically is it better to kick a ball extremely high, have a chasing pack all running in unison potentially c...

Re: Jai Field

Firstly you can't blame him for wanting to go back to his home. Perfectly natural thing. That said I am of the opinion that from a purely rugby perspective, Field's game is much more suitable for Superleague than it is the NRL. Same with French btw, though his new found stand off skills may change t...

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

Absolutely thrilled we won. The boys did amazing and I think our defence won us that game. We definitely got some favourable decisions from the ref but that’s just the way it goes sometimes. Penrith made some uncharacteristic errors, not kicking on the last for the first 30 mins was strange but the...

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

Thought the game highlighted the difference in physicality between SL and the NRL. They were on another level. We also got the "rub of the green" more than I can remember a Wigan side ever getting in 40 years watching the team. That said, Wigan really did dig deep and that alone has to be ...

Re: Make sure you watch this again before you head out

Just glimpses of Hanley and Renouf.

You forget just how good they were.

Re: Patrick Mago: Off-field improvements impacting on-field performances for Wigan Warriors prop

Interesting that he mentions church, like he's on the straight and narrow path again. Good for him. It makes me think of the many Christian players we've had, such as Inga, Billy Whizz, Bill Ashurst, Shaun Edwards. I'm sure that the direction from their faith helped some, at least, to be better pla...
