why?
its my opinion that not re-signing Dobby was a mistake? why does everyone on here feel it necessary to mock in that fashion without reason in words?

I think the major problem is we just seem to make poor descions all the time and what might not be a mistake in the first sense is made into one by us.

For example signing mathers wasn't a bad option he was good enough to go to oz and it was a 50/50 gamble. The mistake was made when he was given an extention when we had an outclause to get rid of him he showed no form whatsoever to earn his extention.

In the same manner, signing feilden wasn't a bad thing he came with a big rep the mistake was to let him come on a long massive contract which has tied us up. I cant see anybody in the top 8 wanting him now he's lost all go forward.

Our other mistake is for some reason people at wigan seem to be blind to a large degree. Amos, Ainscough and Richards while not being the best back line in the world can do a job to a good standard. so why on earth are we looking to pay good money for a fullback thats not needed when we have possibly in feilden and coley the worst set of starting forwards in the league!. We have lacked an out and out muscle forward for ages now, a craig smith or terry o'connor style. We aren't seeing the best of feka as he has to pick up the slack off Stuart "im on my knees before the line" feilden and andy "crabman" coley
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

There's not much I'd disagree with there, but in the cause of fairness Mathers is injured and curretnly awaiting an operation. Will it make any difference to him?? I don't know.

Crabman Coley. I would disagree with you there. He does run sideways but I'm fairly sure that he's be told to target the opposition number 7, and to that end he'll run anywhere to find them. Is it slaveish adherence to the game plan? I'm not the coach.
