We were no better with Powell out, and now he's back and fully fit we have one of our best performances of the season. Witch hunt anyone?Exiled Wiganer wrote: ↑Mon Aug 28, 2023 2:08 pmYou would of course be on your highest high horse if anyone had suggested we were stronger because he wasn’t playing, and be giving us page after page after page of holier than thou disparaging “not real fans” comments.

Guess we have to make tough decisions based on salary cap. Just because you have the money doesn't mean you can spend it on what you want or, in Warrington's case, wisely.

Sam T (who I like a whole lot) gets a £250 fine! and Kaide Ellies gets a 1- match ban for something that I can't even recall..
It's just a farce.
You don’t debate his merits - instead, you constantly attempt to establish some sort of moral superiority over the people who express their point of view (which none of us has bothered doing for months). You don’t debate the point, you attack the posters. I have no idea what motivates you, and couldn’t care less, but your condescension and arrogance towards others views is something to behold. Either way, there will come a day when Powell will no longer play for the club, and then you will have to find something else to attack Wigan fans for.morley pie eater wrote: ↑Mon Aug 28, 2023 4:39 pmMy post had 2 motivations:Exiled Wiganer wrote: ↑Mon Aug 28, 2023 2:08 pmYou would of course be on your highest high horse if anyone had suggested we were stronger because he wasn’t playing, and be giving us page after page after page of holier than thou disparaging “not real fans” comments.
1. A bit of fun - as Meds clearly responded to.
2. The anti-Powell posters constantly (and I mean constantly) exercised their right to post their negative views of Sam. I thought I would bring just a tiny bit of balance to bear.
Tbh, I never rated him as a top 9 in SL terms. But he does a job, and he is also part of our on-field leadership/organisation.
As we could lose Isa for 2024, and Cooper is still a bit doubtful, I think Sam is worth keeping for his leadership and experience in an otherwise young team.
O'Neill has been playing well and we have Leeming to come, so we'll see how Matty Peet sees it can me next year.
So while the match review panel are watching a different clip the rest of us can clearly see Tomkins raise his knee towards the incoming O'Neill you can't make it upjosie andrews wrote: ↑Mon Aug 28, 2023 6:09 pmEllis supposedly did a crusher tackle!Southern Softy wrote: ↑Mon Aug 28, 2023 6:02 pm You kind of give up.

Tomkins, according to the disciplinary panel, raised his knee on the ball carrier. The actual ball carrier was Abbas Miski, so they got that wrong!!
