Lockers tends to be our top tackler.
Shame 80% are above shoulder level

Yep, conceding 40 penalties a game is totally unacceptable.

He is right though Geoff, just admit it.
I wonder why Lockers won't go in low faor a tackle, is scared to bend his legs ffs :exc:

If he went for a low tackle, the tackle is completed quicker, so to prevent a kick play of the ball you have to work the floor. Every time i have seen lockers work the floor. he has taken the p!ss and given away a penalty.

Not only is he not captain material, he's no loose Forward either; too small. Les Cats battered him.

If he's too small God help Beswick! Have you ever met Lockers? Believe me, he is easily big enough for loose forward.

Last season i think O'Loughlin showed just how bad a captain he was, wigan improved last year when Fletcher started shouting the odds.
I'll always remember the hull game last year, we were getting hammerd and Locks said nothing under the sticks, if it was farrell he would have caused merry hell tomake sure he got the message across. At one point we had Tim Jonkers, water carrier extrodinaire telling players what to they need to do whilst locks just stood there as quiet as a church mouse.
We brought barret in and thought finally a captain but i think it's been left to late and Trent has realised that he can't turn some of these players we've got so he single handedly takes on opponents week in week out, after pally has lead the way of course with his powerful drives up the field the man reminds me of some sort of steam locamotive.
O'loughlin should have been stripped of his mantle months ago, he's slugish, reckless and inconsistant (more than the others) he leads by example i.e very poorley, he used to be good now he's pants he doesn't concentrate on his game anymore.
The only resemblance to Faz was the goal Locks kicked at St Helens but i attribute that to the shirt.
Well i've said my piece i think i'll just go and hold a whip round at my local to see if a can raise enough money to buy the club.
