Not sure i'd disagree. From a pure rugby persective Lulu has more, but still wouldn't swop.

It's a question of balance. With Monas, Briers and Myler, we have that balance. The three together is what makes us tick.

The three compliment each other, seems to me this is where Finch struggled at the start of the season, where to fit in. You will see from my previous posts that I think he has found he place of late, and I have been impressed with him. And you have your three working together, but not as well as ours are.

Put simply, I think Myler brings something to our game that Lulu wouldn't.

Well put mate! Good to know there is at least 1 Wire fan with sense ;)

Like I said Myler is a good player and has really improved his game this year but Leuluai is a complete better individual player. & like you said, Myler is working perfect at Warrington with the players around him.

[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]

You would only know if they played together but i know were your coming from

With regards to Finch it was more of our players getting to know his style if you look at when he started there was only Hoffman who knew what was going on now everyone knows and it's showing

This thread lost any credibility when the OP suggested that Leuluai, a world cup, grand final, harry sunderland, 4 nations winning player, wasnt as good as Richie Myler.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



lost its credibilty??? what a stupid stupid boy.

So we cant compare a Scrum half who played for England aged 18 and is now a scrum half in the best attacking team in the competition against a guy that cant really nail down a scrum half position and moonlights as a hooker when no one else is available.

no point in discussing this topic its dead in the water.
Wire fans will prefer Myler at Scrum Half while Wigan Fans will prefer Paul Deacon .......doh i've confused my self what was the argument again.............

Typical of you and all the other Wire fans (other than 1905) to ignore my further points about the subject :thumb:

Would be interested to know if you think that's true, or in the case of Wigan being such a well drilled side, Maguire has made Finch 'know his style'?

Good point, Myler wouldn't make the NZ side and Leuluai would be first choice 7 if English, speaks volumes.


Leuluai is a slightly better version of Michael Sullivan, poor at halfback, decent hooker.

Stick to what you're okay at eh, Thomas.

1- Hodgson/Tomkins*
2- JMonaghan
3- Bridge
4- Carmont
5- King/Richards*
6- Briers
7- Myler
8- Morley
9- MMonaghan
10- Carvell
11- Hoffman
12- Westwood
13- O'Loughlin

14- Leuluai
15- Lima
16- Mossop
17- Harrison

* Hodgson for me is the better all round fullback, positioning in defence and under the high ball, and in attack chimes into the line better as a 3rd pivot BUT STomkins is one of the best broken field runners and his step is devastating. Not to mention he's still young so positioning will come with experience.
Now only - Hodgson, Future in mind - STomkins

* King and Richards are very similar in attack and defence, both strong, powerful, tall wingers and great with the kick to the corner. All round game, I think the King edges it as he offers slightly more in attack and defence for me, but this choice would probably be made based on the above decision...
Pick Hodgson as FB, go for the King. Pick STomkins and you'll need Richards for goal kicking.

So 8 in the starting line up from Wire, 3 from Wiggun with 2 places a coin toss. 3 on the bench from the pies with just Benny H from us.

In my opinion, we have the better individuals in direct comparison, but this will have no bearing on the result whatsoever. I'm nervous, slightly confident, but it's still Wire. ISWT!

I realised that as soon as i had started conversing with them on it.

There really is no pint with some of these wigan trolls.

You could have a good discussion on this subject with the more intelligent ones.. like NickyKiss, Guerrier, inside man, last son of wigan.

But not this lot.

Should be a cracking game between the two best attacking and defensive teams in super league. But what both sets of fans have to realize is no trophy will be won at the end of game. I still think wire will win by 20
