One thing you are wrong about - Maloney if fit will be the best player in SL by a mile. Widdopp probably next best. How do you think I'd be received on the Wigan forum if I just posted to gloat about that?

As a general rule, I pretty much leave posts up and allow a wide variety of subjects and posters on the forum. I like to use the great McLaren Fields tactics on "trolls" the tried and tested point and laugh strategy.

People will invariably have differing views and the very tribal nature of sport and RL in particular will always bring these to the surface and will grate on some.

That being said, if people feel like there is a troll on the forum please let either myself or Frosties know and we will look into this in confidence, our DM's are available for you to use.

Aside from that, I am in complete agreement with the tone of social media these days, everything is so confrontational and absolute black or white, for or against when in reality, there is a definitive "grey area" on most subjects.

The point I made about Hastings was in reply to another poster claiming you hadn’t tried to sign him when it’s obvious you did, and the point about Myler was hardly unnecessary, this forum has been banging on about Luke Gale for the last month to the point you’d think he’d already signed, my point was you aren’t getting him and you’ll be stuck with Lui and Myler who are gash (hope that wasn’t unnecessary)

You've been trolling on here for a while. Clearly having a go trying to wind people up.

I'd say there used to be more overt gloating over wins than there is now. Also there has always been an element of bullying - there was a woman who was a big fan if Franny Cummins who basically got hounded off here. Then there was AP, who was mildly amusing until he accused me of racism, at which point I just started ignoring him. So I'm not sure things on here are much worse tbh.

Widdop? The same bloke who’s constantly injured and has a knackered shoulder? Hastings is miles better than him, I’d rather have Williams than Widdop

OK. If you know so little about RL I'll leave you to it.

What a crank.

Williams isn't even the best half currently at Wigan.

A few games with The Mounties and Williams will be back to SL with Salford.

As for Hastings, there's a reason he cant get a gig in the NRL.
