Re: Wigan Squad for Salford
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

Re: Wigan Squad for Salford
There was a couple of flashes from oniell the other night then it reverted back to his Powell type game I'm now more convinced than ever this is how the coaching staff want the hooking role being played for Wigan,that it's painful to watch seems to be beyond them at the moment.josie andrews wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 7:10 pmJust as long as Powell isn’t being used as mentor as he is with O’Neill, who’s game is now more like Powell’s this season compared to last!
I'll say this when Powell came back on at loose was it the side stiffened up a lot with him on but honestly I think that's down to him being more of a captain type than Faz is.

Re: Wigan Squad for Salford
In what way do you think his game is more like Powell's now? From watching O'Neill in the academy I never thought he was vastly different in style to Powell in the way Forber is, I just thought he was similar but generally better in every aspect except defensive reads.josie andrews wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 7:10 pmJust as long as Powell isn’t being used as mentor as he is with O’Neill, who’s game is now more like Powell’s this season compared to last!

How do you know Powell is mentoring O’Neill? What does it entail ?josie andrews wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 7:10 pmJust as long as Powell isn’t being used as mentor as he is with O’Neill, who’s game is now more like Powell’s this season compared to last!

I think it has been reported somewhere that Powell is mentoring the other hookers in the club.nathan_rugby wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 8:49 pmHow do you know Powell is mentoring O’Neill?

Also the tackle on the young Leeds flyer last year (forget his name). Lined him up and took him down.
