Well done to Farrell.
Surprised at this one. I honestly think he’s been very average for second half of the season.

Farrell is the ginger one on the pitch, as you've obviously not been watching the right players.ian.birchall wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 7:36 am+1nathan_rugby wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 7:24 am Well done to Farrell.

He has been consistent all year the only thing that changed was the tries stopped but they stopped from every part of the pitch.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Just because Farrell may have been consistent for Wigan doesn’t mean he’s been good enough for dream team.Caboosegg wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 8:28 amFarrell is the ginger one on the pitch, as you've obviously not been watching the right players.ian.birchall wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 7:36 am+1nathan_rugby wrote: ↑Mon Sep 27, 2021 7:24 am Well done to Farrell.

The tries Farrell scores are what make him such a special player, as you say they have dried up.
It isn’t a criticism, the team have been poor, I just don’t think he’s been good enough for a dream team slot.

Re: Liam Farrell Makes Super League Dream Team
I'd agree with that. By his standards Faz has been ordinary this season. In fact, if anything, I'd say he looks the most dubious call in the 13. But certainly no other Wigan player should have got near.

Re: Liam Farrell Makes Super League Dream Team
If you look at who "produced" these players, by my reckoning there are 4 from abroad, 4 Saints, 3 Wigan, and one each for Huddersfield and Batley.
Talk of decline in the game, having a 14-team Super League, expansion, poor standards and so on, mostly ignores the fact that you can't have quality with too few players of the right standard.
Wakefield, Salford, and the likes all struggle because they mainly rely on others to produce their players. The dream team illustrates the point.
Until every SL team has to have an academy set-up of an approved standard, the game is going nowhere. Changing the league format, promotion and relegation and the rest of it are just rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic.
In the meantime, a ten team league is the best we can support - simply because the quality drops once you step beyond the top 3 at best....we were comfortably 4th!
