Think it was the first game of the season 3 years ago when we played at Warrington and Wilshere was the stand off and we played exceptionally well.

correct M.R it was the 2006 season

JR, I know he's been our FB for some time now, I just don't think that he's suited to the position. I don't think that he's big enough for FB in todays game. He's a similar size to Paul Fletcher, but that was in an era when most wingers and centres [uweren't[/u built like brick sh[ii[/ithouses, as most of them seem to be today.

I've always liked Fitzy, he seems to give everything each time he plays.

I just think that his darting runs and support play would be better used in the halfback area. Can't see it happening though, so I'll leave it there.

a class act give him a contract for life

you should do everything you can to keep hold of this lad. Luckily for you out of the so called "bigger" clubs wigan have s.tompkins, saints have eastmond, leeds have burrow, bradford are pennyless, hullkr have dobson, etc so most big clubs are covered, but you must wrap him in cotton wool, a class act

All together now...
Oh richie myler, the only lad from widnes .................

Cheque books are rustling all over the rugby-playing world, I fear.

sorry you forgot to mention hull fc they need a class half back and are not skint

Thought Tompkins was playing at stand off

Thats what I fear also, but if Wigoon pay a three figure sum for a has been, surely a 18 nearly 19 yr old should demand a huge transfer fee.
Slap that on his head and it will keep the vultures at bay.
[size=59apart possibly from the above named team who have been known to break the salary cap and transfer records to get what they want

Once again the little genius played beyond his years.The interception and the build up to robbies try will stay with me for a long time. The only problem now is to tie the lad up so he can deliver us to the promised land or a new stadium

Look - we are in a recession - no a slump - hes tied up until the end of next season so lets be more positive please. Top lad.
