I understand everybody saying Sarginson should be dropped but for who? Thornley and Gelling are both out injured. Moving Bateman to Centre leaves us weak at 2nd row/loose. Putting Josh at centre when he can't even play his own position too well at the minute is even more stupid.

The problem with articles like these is you do not know what questions were asked/prompted and the actual answer he was given.

From the sounds of it though a lot of what he has said appears to have been twisted to make it into something. You would hope he would be a bit more intelligent with some of his answers.

You would also think Wigan would have some input into what gets published. It was never a problem when Sam did it...

It was a punishment originally, but it would have grown out by now so looks like he's have it 'done' regularly unless he is being punished every week for something :sly:

Neither can i and i do not even know him.

As some mentioned on here he made Josh a bagful of tries. The game against Giants in the play off in 2013 prime example of the space Sam creates by the sheer fact he is Sam Tomkins.

In fairness if you are picking on form then Charnley doesn't deserve to be in the team.

Manfredi does.


I am more worried about Wane losing the senior players. But that might be a red herring.

We will see.

Exactly, but any need for some saying he is not good enough when next season he and Manfredi will be our only two decent wingers when Burgess leaves.

Manfredi may be 'flavour' of the month at the moment, but he could also lose form like Charnley or be a one season wonder.

Opinions on players change like the weather with some!
