Re: MATT PEET intends to build his Wigan team around leading player
I would need to double check, but the 2 GFs that I felt got away from us were Maguire’s second year, when we were by far the strongest team, and the one we lost through Flower’s brutal stupidity. I will be happy to see what we saw this year - a clear strategy, making the most of our talent, pride in...

Re: Squad numbers
A few things strike me about this: first, we don’t have masses of cover in the backs, though it would only need a couple of the young guns to be ready to remedy that; second, giving Byrne the 10 shirt for 24 is a massive vote of confidence in him. If he genuinely is better than Dupree, Cooper, Mago ...

Re: Saturday games!!
Might the Saturday fixtures be linked to a new Channel 4 contract? I thought their coverage was superb.

Re: Ian Lenagan
I entirely agree with Big Steve, and would add that he also had good ideas for the direction of the game and tried to make SL more professional. Even his “mistakes” - arguably, bringing back players too readily and being too slow to move on when things were not working - spring from positive qualiti...

Re: WELCOME MR DANSON
Well with 5 gigs lined up that will certainly generate revenue. I saw Simon Moran is promoting the Richard Ashcroft gigs so I assume he is also promoting the other three. Wonder why Wigan rather than Warrington? I am going to go out on a limb here, and suggest that Richard Ashcroft may have close t...

Re: WELCOME MR DANSON
Everything that he has done so far - the new signings, the WCC played on a day that suits us, the smooth roll out of kit etc - shows a high level of investment and professionalism. It is second hand, but I met someone whose job it is to find sponsorship who told me he was working on some great deals...

Re: Ian Lenagan
I would like to start with an apology. In 2008, I was in Sydney for the World Cup and was (inadvertently on my part) mistaken for him by the owner of an NRL club - and treated very well indeed. During the evening I had the privilege of being introduced to one of my all time heroes: summoned by said ...

Re: Any more to come?
I am very excited indeed, in particular because for the first time this century we will have a running threat at 9 AND a big pack, hitting the line and making post contact metres. When we played the Roosters, KR made the point that we needed to be much bigger, but it has taken us forever to do somet...
