Powell

Got a hot rumour from a source inside the club, or just something you heard down the pub? Then what are you waiting for, post it on The Rumour Mill.

Shouldn’t we be thanking them for taking Powell off us ?

Fair bit of disrespect being shown to a player who has been an exceptional club man for us.

I agree it’s time for him to go but I’m thankful for the shifts he has put in particularly in the middle of the park in defence.

I do think he had an attacking threat but coaching philosophy at the club dictated he had to change that in favour of a more controlling style and that has probably come back to bite him later in his Wigan career.

Totally agree not warranted all this shit. Been a good club player and deserves some respect for that.

Well said
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

With his injury record, you must be joking. Good size, poor attitude.

Absolutely agree. Should show more respect for a player who gives his all for Wigan. Strange attitude some have towards players and former players.

Good player great clubman, won most things with and for us.
In agreement with others here a little respect is not to hard to give.
His best game for us was for me the world club against Cronulla to do what he did that day is beyond 99.9% of us.

He gets my respect.
But I still feel happy to see the back of him, as I think now we can now move forward as a team. We’ve been begging for a change in the hooker position for about 3 seasons now
