RedVee Josie. I might get a bit of stick on there for being a Wigan fan but at the end of the day it tends to be good natured banter which is what I enjoy on a forum because that is what it should be all about. There are several knowledgeable rugby supporters on there as on here but none of them would tell another poster he is 'talking bollocks'.
They have more class than that!
I did consider starting a 'Goodbye' thread and writing 10,000+ words about why I had become disillusioned with this site and wouldn't be posting much more but I don't have the kind of ego to make me think I would even be missed all that much.

We are clutching at straws resigning Joel

When did he have this quiet season? His last with us was 2011 when he played in the centres out of position culminating in that Wembley try.
Clutching at straws is a very strange comment IMO.

He is a class player and will prove it once again without doubt, not that he needs to!!

Not ignoring the fact he DID play out of position, that Wembley try was just about his only highlight in the centres. More often than not, he was nothing more than a hurried (read cheap) replacement for the sacked Gleeson
Now if Joel can turn that clock back and regain the form and fitness he showed in scoring that try, then I too will be happy. IF the cruciate knee injury and the back surgery play major part of Joel's form and fitness as injury did to Betts when he returned to the club then this could be a really big gamble.
Btw I note people say he took less money to return to Wigan. Was this less money than he was on before he left Wigan or less money than he was earning whilst occupying the Saracen's medical room?

Probably just me but I think he could be playing prop.
When Lockers doesn't play then Joel will move to 13.
He has the skills, size, aggression and pace to play both positions.
