[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]
tbh i know many people say tommy is an amazing defender but i have noticed him slip or miss alot of tackles, but when he does put a shot in it allways looks like it hurts the other player.
Really? A good tackler/bad defender sort of situation?
I get what you mean about players coming into a better system perfoming better, but Gale looked liek a real weak link when we played them t'other week.

yeah hes defo a good tackler but can miss hes fair share of tackles aswell.
"Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.
I got told at the Huddersfield game by a good source that Burrow had been in preliminary talks with us back then. I'm guessed we've upped interest now Finch going
Genuinely wouldn't want Burrow, I don't rate him. He has a lot of zip but most of the time just looks like he's doing a lot due to his pace and small size, but in reality hasn't done much. I know you can't generalise as his try in the GF was top notch, but overall, meh, unless we're desperate.

Disagree 100% mate. Very experienced with a great kicking game and can swing a close match and change a game. Cover at hooker and scrum half, get him signed!
agree entirely. good big match experience. would fit in for a couple of years whilst we waited for the next gen. he would be a similar signing to deacon. he also has an excellent work ethic, which is a plus factor in this team. a better option than chase to me, HOWEVER if we have signed Smith then it wouldn't really make sense, as they are both cover for 9 and 7.

You are allowed to disagree
Just my opinion, plus, his defence is, let's say, suspect
