Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.

What is your point? I suggest split halves to use both Long and Myler in the same team to develop Sam and Myler over time.

I've never once in any other post promoted the use of split halves. I think when used effectively they work very well at Storm for example, but I would always prefer a 7 as 1st receiver, 6 as second.

I was also the poster who explained the differences between split halves and traditional halves, implying in that post which method I preferred.


Calm down, i do not remember one specific post just a dearth of them regarding the split halves.

Completely over shadowed by Cooper Cronk. Finch often goes missing in games and seems more than happy to take a back seat as Cronks runs the show.

Played well in his first game or two, drifted since then.

Maybe a troublemaker, by next season he'll have had 3 clubs in 2 seasons, not good going.

Released by Eels, then released by Storm.

Pity Cronk isn't an option!


Nor sure why he was dumped from the Eels. I think he and Daniel Anderson had a clash of personailities. Sometimes this happens.

As for Cronk-I share your sadness in that Wigan have no chance in capturing him! Outstanding player.

Is it worth considering Braith Anasta? The arrival of Todd Carney at the Roosters may put his position in question and he seems to have been overlooked for rep RL now.


Anasta is one of the most over hyped players in the last few years. Moreover, he is a number 6, or a lock forward. Aren't we putting Sam Tomkins at 6?

God knows what Campo and Wallace were trying to do!
:lol:

To be fair their forwards did not help in the first 40 minutes.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know
