It didn't seem a good point when Mago walked off the pitch having a laugh and a joke with the opposition?
He's got to play out of his skin to even get a look for next season and it remains to be seen whether he can?
I'll not hold my breath.

What do you mean??

They are friends off the pitch & they are human beings! Why shouldn't they have a chat after a game? It happens at community level, NCL & upwards. Good friends play against each other.
What about rival household fans? Are they not supposed to speak to each other for a week cos one of their teams won?

He’s improved his concentration this past few weeks and has cut out the silly errors (still an accident waiting to happen in defence though).That actually makes it more frustrating for me that he’s not done it previously and has waited until his future is on the line. He won’t be here in 2024 IMO and that’s the right call, without a shadow of a doubt.

It’s a shame as you say he’s waited this long to show what he’s capable of

The second quote is utterly stupid. If you have any pride in your work it should not matter if you are related and/or friends with every single member of the opposing team. You shouldn’t even be able to raise a smile if you have just had your arse handed to you on a plate 30 seconds after the whistle has gone. Where is the personal pride and pride in your work? If anything you should want to go and hide. Showed a complete lack of awareness of what was just served up and has nothing to do with being mates with the opposition.

It’s got nothing to do with rivalry in families either. They were not playing.

He was a bit better in the Leeds game. I also happened to watch the semi final against Saints last year and he was good in that and gave us a lift.

We shouldn’t be extending him though but hopefully he can play his part for the rest of this season.

[Suzieb]

What a load of rubbish he is shocking and so unfit it’s ridiculous that we don’t have a ready made replacement if we play him today just watch his effort it’s been pathetic up to now

There's nowt stupid in what Josie's statement says. Perhaps inappropriate ,by your lights, in the given circumstances,but she's not stupid not by a long chalk. I must say my Wiganese is almost fluent or so I believe.

His flaws outweigh his qualities too much and he should not be retained.

When you look at the impact and quality players like Walmsley and Pasai have then compare to what we get from Mago…

If he was steam rolling people in attack and bossing it defence you could get away with a few of the errors, penalties and lack of minutes but IMO he just looks like an average forward with low fitness and minutes.
