Saints away good Friday couple of years back he was my MOM and home against Warrington with Gels and Dom he was uplayable. Anyway Joel like a lot of our players seems to have missed a lot of rugby. I remember Hanley and Bell both coming back after injury, both returned into winning teams that was on 90% of occasions dominating. They both struggled for form it took Bell the last three months of the season and a full pre season to return to form. I think Joels had three serious injurys and I dont remember to many disapointed fans when he came back. His form has been poor and his niggling penalties annoying but and with the cap your options and decisions are always critical. I still hope we see the players who returned win things and capture old form that wont always happen with our players new or re-signed.wall_of_voodoo wrote:Are you his dad?nitsua wrote:

Utter rubbish! Never been worth a quarter the money he received since coming back from Saracens.
Did he play badly? No. Is he keeping the place warm until Bateman returns? Yes. Should we potentially have better players capable and willing to play second row? I should bloody well hope so
Been given the second row spot as Joel's position to lose. Why? Is this adage previously used for his brothers of "performances banked" or however it was put; justified? No and I bet you cannot put up one single game since he returned to the club as evidence of his form deserving no critisism from fans

We know he can catch and stand up when he runs, as he has shown us plenty of times. That said, I really like Higginson, and would be pleased to see him given his chance. Gildart is a superb player, a classic centre, so Wane clearly knows how to coach centre play. He was unfairly criticised this morning - he judged that his wing would get mullered if he moved the ball, and may well have been right.
If FPN being dropped is a sign that he isn't coming home, then we could well see 2 NRLers on the plane back, with his and McIllorum's hefty salaries off the wage bill.
I have wondered for a while whether they might have treats in store for us before March. With our first game so late, they have longer to reflect on how best to spend IL's hard earned.
Finally, superb combinations, and that after only 2 games. The only slight quibble is that I would like to Sam take on the line again.
Honestly given his injury was it really worth taking him over?Exiled Wiganer wrote:Where was Bateman?
Given its a friendly and how much of the season he missed last time out for me at least it simply isn't worth the risk.southernpie wrote:JB is going to play instead of Lockers next week according to Waney on Wigan TV
