Re: Pinched from Bilko re Liam Marshall

<t>Very impressive stats for Liam even though it's difficult to compare different eras. Bearing in mind that Offiah was a fully developed player when we signed him and he played in a very dominant side Liam's figure look good. The one who interests me most is Johnny Ring who has a phenomenal record ...

Re: Batemans Gone

<t>John gave everything as usual last night. Bearing in mind his trip to Denver and the heavy knock he took early in the game, his performance was immense. He had Hall in his pocket the whole game. I know that overall he's more effective in the backrow but this season we are far stronger with John a...

Re: Josh Woods

<t>Great to see Josh growing in confidence. When we have a full squad he may provide the answer to problem that arises when Tommy needs a break. i.e. We could move Sam P to hooker, use Josh from the bench and keep Sam T at fullback. If Josh continue to progress by the end of the season he may be a b...

Re: Lenagan

<t>Lam is an interesting one. He was the type of player you'd expect to make a good coach (if there is such a thing) and we know he can live happily in the U.K. but what is his coaching experience/record so far? Has he been successful with a reserve grade team as a head coach or has he 'only' been a...

Re: Joe greenwood

I appreciate that jet lag can be a problem for athletes but I'd hope Bateman can play (we need him at centre) because coming back from the states isn't as big a problem as from Australia. However, once again the RFL/Sky haven't helped us with the timing of the fixture.

Re: 19-Man Squad: Vs Castleford

<t>Still no sign of Jack Wells. Does anybody know if his injury has turned out to be worse than expected? We could have done with him for the next few weeks and I hope he isn't going to miss out on a big chance to impress. This season was expected to be a big one for Jack and I was hoping that he'd ...

Re: Wigans Head Coach

<t>I'd love to see Shaun Edwards as our next coach but if we have to use a stand in for a year I hope we get Shaun tied up to a contract properly. The way the England rugby union team is playing they may be looking for someone like Shaun to take over from Jones in the near future. Would he turn down...

Re: Bateman - Bulldogs

<t>I really rate Bateman and still think we have a chance of keeping him. However, I don't think he's a marquee player i.e. one that controls the game or can win the game 'by himself'. It's not often that a backrower can influence the game to such an extent. Let's be honest, he's no Andy Farrell or ...

Re: 3 MEN DOWN AGAINST CAS

<t>I agree that the way things have turned out is unfair to us but there's no point the coach moaning about it beforehand. It just gives the players an excuse when things get tough. If you look at the performances of teams in all sports just after their coach has made an excuse (games too close toge...

Re: Bateman - Bulldogs

Could the delay be due to the fact that none of the interested NRL teams are prepared to pay the transfer fee? If this is the case I'd be very happy to keep him for another year. We may have time to convince him to stay longer especially if he sees Sutton not getting into the first team.
