What is your fascination with size all about MP?

Perhaps my mate's wife would be better qualified to answer that one!!!

After losing to the OZ club champions,the Club Establishmentb said we are undersized, as did Mcguire in his 2 years at Wigan. Against Castleford, when the free passing game plan failed,we were underpowered and couldnot generate /force an opening to score at crucial times. But We are getting there. OL is nearly finished,it happens ,only Salford or Warrington last year would be daft enough to sign him up. Nobody with any sense would enter a frenzy to sign a player who cannot get in the GB /England team., Farrell. Also Our relative fitness advantage is slowly eroding , as others watch and learn so all individual players come under more scrutiny. But The club seems to be recruiting along the right lines. ,so we look in good shape. Would like a BETTS /Ashurst, type no 11 but where are they? Going for swim,in Highgate ponds,all sexes. VERY PC.BESTS

I mentioned size first in this thread. As in so much in life, it's a question of balance.

Hahaha, I bet MP drives round in a sports convertible!!

Hull FC are 11th in SL, if they were in the same position next year would Taylor sign for them then when they would be facing relegation?
Anyway, Hull's problems are not in the forwards or defence it's attack. They need quality backs and half backs. If they think Leon Pryce is the answer to their half back problem then they kidding themselves and aren't going anywhere soon.
If he goes back to Humberside to either club I do think it's a very wrong move for him career wise.

Can we see a 100% Scott Taylor in 2015 if his mind is/was elsewhere.
I am of the opinion that if a player wants to go then get gone.
Why suffer a player who's mind is in another team.

Exactly if there was any truth in this Waney would of kicked his ass right out of the club

I've got mixed feelings about this, delighted that he is staying but in truth only want players at Wigan who want to play for us and can't help feeling it's not good that his hand had to be forced on the matter :eusa4:

His form definitely suffered for a while April-June time in my opinion, he wasn't dominating opponents like he did in the first few rounds. So that suggests to me something was going on in his head or whatever, because it wasn't injury related, otherwise he would have been left out more when others came back. His form has picked up again in the last three or four games so I guess now next year is sorted he's OK again, until the year after needs sorting.
