And if I had a million pounds i’d be a millionaire. It’s no use saying if things had been different they would be! We haven’t been playing well so people look for reasons why.Caboosegg wrote:Alot of over reaction on here, we knew cuts are inbound, you can't plan to have a big team with only 5k fans through the gates
Wigan star Its a wigan prospect and I imagine people would not blink twice if we had been playing well this season.

It’s not illogical to be frustrated one of the reasons we haven’t been playing well, zero attacking contributions from Powell, sees him rewarded with a new deal. Then when one of two young hookers who could in theory form a good partnership sharing the role is let go it’s bang your head against the desk time.
It just reinforced people’s views that whoever is managing the squad is clueless. We’d lose nothing if Powell was let go. In fact if money is the issue we’d probably save some. As someone else said if it proved too much for the young hookers then do something about it then.

And where is the logic in that? If you're going to rest Powell (or even drop him), then do so. if Powell is going to play any minutes at all, you don't need two replacements, and you've wasted a bench spot.

Re: Wigan star set to depart
I'm sure it was Nathan who pointed out Wigan under Lam do not use the inter change hooker option. When we have one on the bench it is purely to fill the bench not because Lam wants to inter-change Powell for any reason. Picking two hookers with Powell in the squad means selections are being made on numbers rather than tactics
I'm a better fan than you
Because I don't "Boo"!!!
Yes I bloody know transfer fees do not count on the salary cap for those illiterates that need it explaining to them because they assume everyone is as thick as they are

Re: Wigan star set to depart
Can someone tell me why no-one will ever replace Powell at Hooker until he retires,
Re: Wigan star set to depart
And when he retires he will no doubt join the coaching staff

Re: Wigan star set to depart
So some fans want to get rid of the games top tackle maker?
I'll bet the same fans would like to sign Brad Dwyer, who has missed more tackles than any other player!!

Re: Wigan star set to depart
Brad Dwyer yes please didn’t miss Powell against Huddersfield. At least we would be more dangerous in our opponents 25. Leeds seem to cope with Dwyer in defence why not Wigan. He changed the game against Hull. I would rather be entertained than bored to death.
