Its nice to have a big name import who isnt made of biscuits. Took a big knock with no ongoing injury

Glad he's ok, it's never good seeing players on the same team collide like that.

Looks a very solid halfback.

I would suggest far more play makers are injured borderline unfairly (or blatantly unfairly in some cases) against Wigan then against any other team - and that needs to be addressed - it's not as simple as saints forwards need to give it back, because the amount of crying that wane did if someone so much as looked at Sam meant referees were giving penalties before they touched him! It could be that you are letting your bias against Wigan run away with you here. Wigan give it out and they take it. One case being the GF and Westwoods assault on Green. What was Wane's response "I thought he should have got up quicker". Last season both Smith and Green missed large chunks of the season due to injury after being hit late, Green after being hit high by Paterson against his old team. Did Wigan moan, no. They just got on with it. It's a rough tough game. I would suggest watching Professional Football if you are not keen on contact.

This thread is about an incident last Friday and how Walsh is doing now. Last years Grand Final is irrelevant.

the match maybe but the situation isn't. Shaun wane didn't come out crying about constant late hit or thuggish play of the half backs and both them had been out for awhile because of late hits.

so i would say its on topic.

Its not about Walsh's injury, hence no place here.
