Just last season we saw the worth of Powell. He was varying his play and sniping from the ruck. He even started to go forward before passing. What has happened this season? Has he been told to revert to dummy and pass whilst standing still?

Waneys back, what do you expect
Props will be finding the floor again instead of trying to make metres
CPWigan will be happy that Waneball is back, where ever he may be :D

A good question. Sam does seem to have gone backwards a bit this season.

I dont think Powell has gone backwards, he has just been consistently poor.

Sam’s never changed, always offered the same.
Top tackler, he never offers much else

I don't think that'd true, last year he was a different player, this year he seems to have reverted.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Sorry I don’t see what your seeing.
I would of got rid of Sam years ago. And that’s not because I’m a Sam hater, I just think we need a hooker who can offer us more than just tackling.

We are letting Boruogh go to Salford hope he does not come back to bite us.When Amir played he made more metres in one match than Powell made in 10 matches .Amir is a modern hooker we should have let Powell go .
