Re: Powell

O'Neil starts to do all the tough stuff which he does really well, then bring on Leaming when the opposition are searching for their second wind. That is how I believe he will be best used, because I'm not sure about him in a grind.

Re: Mago

I would 100% love him to stay, his form over the last six weeks or so has been a revolution, he now has that x factor when he comes on. He gives the whole atmosphere a lift both on and off the pitch, he's fast becoming my new fav. Why would we want to replace him with a different overseas prop? we t...

Re: Wigan Warriors set to appeal star man’s ban

I've just watched the so called crusher tackle on WTV "absolute joke" there was nothing in it. If That is a one match ban then Tomkins should have had life in prison without appeal for a deliberate pre meditated act of violence.
This panel is not fit for purpose, get rid.

Re: Health of Rugby League

I don't think a 14 team league is a starter, it would mean teams getting less of the share of the money on offer at a time when it is being reduced. It is the simplest version when looking for a way to scrap the loop games, but I don't believe there is enough quality to sustain 14 teams. I think the...

Re: Tonight's Game/Wigan squad for Catalans

Brilliant performance by Wigan, beat Cats at their own game which is to turn ten yards into five and stifle the life out of you. Everyone deserves maximum praise, first half KPP monstered every one of their players, and O'Neill & Smithies tackled them to death. French reaped the rewards of a bat...

Re: Byrne

i also doubted him. and it gave me no pleasure to say so. In this game he was a proper prop, well played Liam. The start of a new chapter I hope. I bet he will remember both the first and last tackles of the game for very different reasons for some while to come. Great to see he had that aggression ...

Re: Tonight's Match - Wigan squad for Hull FC

I have had a more enjoyable time listening to my mind controller telling me about her day. That was awful, when Harry smith lined up to take the last conversion attempt I thought " if ever you convert a try then please do it now" the thought of having to endure maybe an extra 10 minutes wa...

Re: Willie Peters confirms Hull KR loan deals after admission on team selection plans

I agree with the pieman on this one, play who you want from within your own club , but can you really grab players from everywhere so you can give most of your players a rest. It's a mockery for me.

Re: Smithies

Really impressed with Smithies, his tackling is second to none, and his petulance has almost disappeared. He has in the last few games started to run at the line but instead on dying with the ball he is passing it, which is a big improvement to what was already a very good player. He looks almost li...
