Re: Large Patrick
massive disappointment, at his best he has been average

Re: Large Patrick
Mainly a bench player at Hudds coming on for impact which he has demonstrated against Wigan.
Not used to his full strengths whilst at the DW, and didn't show the potential.
With the way he was expected to play this won't be a big miss come 2016.

Agree thought ironically his best game was against Catalan 2 seeks ago but too little too late.Panchitta Marra wrote:Mainly a bench player at Hudds coming on for impact which he has demonstrated against Wigan.

And because of this crazy piece of 'swap business' we lose the top tackler for the Giants a Wigan lad to a rival team in Warrington

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Can't argue with you Josie but the lad needed first team rugby and he was not guaranteed that at Wigan.josie andrews wrote:http://www.wiganwarriors.com/news/2015- ... e-to-leave

Why, after his season at the Giants, should he become a dual registered player again for Wigan when he can join a side in full throw of being rebuilt and one where has more chances for a regular place?

The biggest Room is the Room for improvement.
The best form of defence is attack!!
Out of the black and into the red, remember you don't get anything for two in a bed!!

Yes I understand that BM, & wish him all the best, but how come LP got so much game time when Jack was sent on dual reg & couldn't even get a game from the bench?butt monkey wrote:Can't argue with you Josie but the lad needed first team rugby and he was not guaranteed that at Wigan.josie andrews wrote:http://www.wiganwarriors.com/news/2015- ... e-to-leave

It's crazy, I think we had the worse part of the deal tho

Re: Large Patrick
I would say it is because Patrick has been utilised more as a complete running forward and more like a prop. He has therefore been able to offer something which Hughes hasn't.josie andrews wrote:Yes I understand that BM, & wish him all the best, but how come LP got so much game time when Jack was sent on dual reg & couldn't even get a game from the bench?butt monkey wrote:Can't argue with you Josie but the lad needed first team rugby and he was not guaranteed that at Wigan.josie andrews wrote:http://www.wiganwarriors.com/news/2015- ... e-to-leave

I would also suggest a lot of his appearances have been down to injuries/reshuffling rather than his performances.
