No argument at all, that.

ive given you more than enough stuff to argue with and you chose that!
i dont think he is performing, i think his passing is more often than not putting people into trouble.
he has a distict lack of ability to read the game and play what is in front of him, and bar a few good moments where hes got a try, i dont think he is being creative enough.
All the oppositions tries seem to be coming down the left half of the field, either because he is moving too far into the Centre, and leaving carmont with a hell of a lot of space to cover,
or because both him and Hoffman are doing it creates an even bigger gap to be covered by carmont.
i think ive explained my concerns with his performance. i now wait for your ridicule and abuse.

He was good enough for the roosters, parra, Melbourne and nsw playing in the best rl comp in the world by a mile but he's not good enough for Wigan in sl?

You need a pinch. nrl halfbacks coming to sl arnt the best ones

dallas didn't and he was out with two broken jaws.
im fairly sure that mark riddell had back surgery before he came to us.
herny paul didnt take long to get up to speed,

and kenny only played over here for about 6 months! so if he took this long to bed in he wouldnt have been remembered as the great he is by the older generation.

Henry Paul was signed from wakefield

And Dallas was a winger he was not supposed to take a team around the field and have most plays go through him like a 6,7 does.

so y are we signing them?
why do we always have to go for second best, if they r not the best then dont sign them.
thats another reason why i think hes not good enough for wigan,
anyone who accepts second best is a fool

actually henry paul was signed from Waitakere City Raiders via aukland warriors in a deal that saw platt (i think) go the other way.

and whats ur point about dallas. he did his job fantastically finch should be doing the same, just because he plays a different position to my example (this position is one hes been playing all his life) its a work rate issue, and if he is good enough then he should be showing it

I hope someones bookmarking these comments because I think truewiganer is going to look very silly over the next couple of months. Finch has just come back from a potential career threatening injury and didnt get a full pre season in. Its taking him a few games to get used to the runs our forwards are going to make, and to learn who is being used as a dummy runner etc but he is getting better with each game. Fair enough he was awful against Wire but he seems to be getting used to our style of play now. He had the definition of a stand-and-pass game against Barrow but he didnt need to do anymore. Hes now played 8 games for Wigan and this in definitely not the time to start saying that a SoO player so highly regarded in Oz and spoken highly about by Madge and Hoffman amongst others is not good enough for us.

Henry Paul was playing for Wakefield when we signed him.

You need a reality check pal. Wigan or any sl club couldn't afford the best. They get paid too much in the nrl! Taking a pay cut to play in a second rate comp and give up rep footy isn't on the nrls top players list of things to do.

Wake up!
