He had better not! He was the one shining light tonight.

Great to see a young player taking the oposition on without fear.

Don't think he'll play next week though, he could hardly walk in those yellow boots he had on ,he had to change them in the 2nd half. He must have blisters on blisters.

Brian Foley appeared to be giving him some stick about celebrating his try before he put the ball down. But I think it's great to see someone have faith in his own ability, something the rest of the team is lacking.

Well personally i am shocked he had a good game, never thought he had anything about him that would cause Sl defences problems.

Been saying since i first saw him he has Robinsons agility and Carney's power, the lad is going to be a superstar. He has the personality, that some may not like off the field, to make it as well, something other players with potential have lacked.

Mate i have been calling for Ainscough to get a shot for a year now, i said at the start of last year if he was given a chace he would have been a dark horse for the England world cup squad, as he offers something different.

The first post was made tongue firly in cheek.

Take note noble - this is what happens when you take a risk with the young players who actually want to play for wigan, now give Sam Tomkins a go.

I accept that Jon but it was an Italian style about-face from your first post not one page later! Made me chuckle

The first post was intended to be sarcastic. You will see my thoughts on Ainscough throughout this forum, and non are negative.

Should he stay in the team ahead of the returning Mathers though?
