i think i wound myself up the more i went on haha
like i said i just simply dont know what James brings to the team, ive no problem with him being part of the coaching set up but he shouldn't be pulling on a jersey IMO.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure
Some one posted this on rlfans, says it all to me, "Jordan James is good enough for what Wane want's him for.", shame certain people think they know b etter even though they have been proven wrong on several occassions
:exc:
How is he blocking Greenwood, who is getting a lot of game time as a front line prop that he wouldn't get at Wigan?
We have already identified if you were to play him instead of james he would of had 16 appearances. Not only that he would have 16 appearences in the system he will be hoping to keep to - far more valuable than getting battered every week in cr@p team
He has had years in the awigan way.
Sutton is, what, 19. How much game time is good for him?
Sutton and Greenwood could of shared the role that james has played thus not overloading either
James has played a lot
,
I thought he was there just for emergency?
and made a lot of tackles and drives up the middle that no one else can make.
If you really believe this then we should ship out all the youngsters now because if they cant do the same job as a 35 year old never was, they wont make the grade
You make the point about him being cheap, as if that should be discounted, but actually it is key. I say that if he is cheap, and we think we need a big lump to soak up punishment, while the 7 props in front of him develop, then that makes sense. I don't see how anyone an get worked up either way on this.
ok then i have a mate who is a wigan fan, who is about 19st he'll play for wigan for a bag of chips and a wagon wheel - job done!
Plus does anyone ACTUALLY know he is cheap, i mean for 100% have you seen his wage? i havent, the fact your all guessing he is cheap is invariably because he is pap! and he wouldnt get a playing role anywhere else.
Look at the teams he has played in tells us he has been average all his career, now at 34 or 35 whatever he is deemed good enough for us.Small wonder that Sutton is considering moving on.

I don't think Sutton is considering moving on because of James getting into the team and as for him playing for many other clubs, it shows how much other Coaches considered that he could do a job for them.
Any different than others like Richard Moore, Gareth Carvell etc.
There always has to be someone at the club for some to call and it would appear James is the currant flavour.

It is quite plain to see that St Helens, Leeds,Warrington, or even Huddersfield have never shown any interest in him.The reason I call him is because he is too old and not good enough.That opinion is obviously shared by the top sides that I have mentioned.As for Richard Moore and Carvell I would not want them at Wigan either and I think this forum would be red hot if we did sign any of them.Ryan Sutton may or may not leave Wigan but I am sure he would be unhappy to be behind James in the pecking order.

What pecking order, the players are selected in accordance with who we are playing and the number of players injured or not match fit.
