Steve Michaels
He's a player that in my opinion is just on the better side of average. But he's an experienced player with what appears to be a good attitude on the field at least.
I bring him up because he's available for next year, when our right winger will be out until at least June.
Worth an enquiry to his agent?
I think Tommy counts as fed trained from being very young when he joined London. So we must have a quota spot or two right? TT, FPN, Gelling and Isa only overseas that come to mind.

Re: Steve Michaels
Rather go with Lewis Tierney, he was our fastest threat last night and we could spend any money available elsewhere.
Re: Steve Michaels
Tierney looked out of his depth IMO. Charnley was better. What is worryingly odd is that who we sign seems largely to do with who your father knows. Tiernet - Jason roninson and Liam Marshall - Dave Marshall

Re: Steve Michaels
He was thrown about like a rag doll all last night by Stefan Marsh in defence - a player not good enough for us in the days before Tierney was a "saviour"Wiganer Ted wrote:Rather go with Lewis Tierney, he was our fastest threat last night and we could spend any money available elsewhere.
How we play says loads about the side we should pick. Wingers/centres/halves are all a waste of time. Just fill the side with forwards and keep driving the one man plays in. Eventually we are going to tire some sides into submission.
As for playing rugby, Teirney is never the answer medium or long term. He is just cheap and his career would be semi-pro playing for the likes of Oldham or Swinton if it wasn't for the fact we spend our entire cap giving too many mediocre players a full time professional career when the club should be far more ruthless in its approach

Re: Steve Michaels
BM makes a good call. We could play second rowers on the wing the way we play. A bit of positivity, Josie is always bloody moaning Budgie scored a length of thwe field effort in his final game for Souths!

Re: Steve Michaels
It just shows you how he should have been played when he was at the Chooks. He's been brilliant at the Bunnies & they want to keep him!cpwigan wrote:BM makes a good call.

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Steve Michaels
I like Lewis but he's just not there yet. Last night when he stepped inside but still got put in touch one on one shows he's a lot to learn.Wiganer Ted wrote:Rather go with Lewis Tierney, he was our fastest threat last night and we could spend any money available elsewhere.
But really, with Michaels I'm thinking he'd be good squad depth as much as anything. We need a bit more experienced depth in the backs.

Re: Steve Michaels
The trouble with Lewis is hes just too slieght in his build as a winger hes thrown off with so little trouble by most players its worring given Manfredi's absence

Re: Steve Michaels
I'd second that I think that Marshall should have had an opportunity, he is a natural winger which Lewis is not and for that matter neither is Gelling or Gildart.cherry.pie wrote:If you mean who we sign for the juniors that seems a bit harsh, as Tierney was outstanding at that level. The length of his new contract does surprise me though, considering he's not looked convincing at fullback or wing.cpwigan wrote:Tierney looked out of his depth IMO. Charnley was better.

I've no issue with us re-signing Marshall. He never had a bad game for the under 19's only to be let go despite us being short of wingers. We re-signed him for the reserves only to send him on loan and from what I've heard he's one of the best wingers in the Championship. I'd have been happy if we'd given him a chance this year.

Re: Steve Michaels
Tierney peaked at academy level. He might have even been on the downward then. Marshall, did well in C1 but maybe that is his level? If you are cheap enough and have a family connection you will at the very least be signed provided you are cheap. Squad fillers.
