Re: 14 Team Super League

14 teams makes sense, home n away plus magic would be a good option That said, too many only want to travel along the M62/A580 Are we happy with a northwest/yorkshire SL comp, plus the odd foreign team? Been trying long enough with just Northern rugby, question is, is there enough money in the game ...

Re: “I didn’t ever think it was going to be a card” – Matt Peet on Morgan Smithies tackle and “interesting” Ian Watson c

I thought his post match interview was well balanced and polite but this does read bitter. It was swing and and round abouts and there was plenty they got away with. There was a knee (looked on purpose) to Singletons face missed which slowed us down as he tried to complain to to the ref. There was ...

Re: Wigan squad for Challenge Cup Final

Why does Smithies feel the need to belt everyone he tackles??

Very lucky not to be in the bin

Re: JJB

He is a great bloke yes however, his voice last night was awful, really poor to the point it was difficult to understand him I've seen previous interviews with him and he is speaking very clearly, I think the braces on his teeth may well be part of the issue but it's not great for our sport when you...

Re: Wigan squad for Hull KR

Why? Just don’t think he has the ability, same reasons as why I don’t think French is good there. Looked great in pre season and tonight at fullback and likely plenty more room for improvement. just don’t see him as a 6. Happy to be proven wrong though! Leave field at fullback…… watch the game hes ...

Re: 2 new signings Thornley and Silva

Explain how that isn't true. You never have a bad word to say about any islanders but offer ridiculous levels of criticism when it comes to Wigan born players. "Goulding never passed" is your latest masterpiece. He was one of the best Winger's centres we've had in Superleague. Only Carmon...
