oww shut up. tommy went for a last ditch tackle not to break halls ribs and McGuire completely cheated by obstructing a player different situations and no rugby player deserves to be injured EVER.

Occupational hazard I'm afraid. I do think we still have to much fire power even without tommy remember Leeds have just lost Webb as well so they are even weaker than they already were, roll on the semi

You can't have it both ways. McGuire stopped a possible try by grabbing someones shirt. Tommy stopped a definite try by leading with his knees - both acts illegal and therefore cheating. I completely agree that no player deserves to get injured, and I really like Leuleuai (even though I can't spell his name) but don't dress it up as any different to Danny - it was a split second decision, done on instinct, both were against the laws of the game and both led to injuries. Some wigan fans are reaping what they sowed, for the rest, for Tommy and his team mates I have nothing but sympathy.

| There were certainly more than a few Wigan fans who initially went off ranting about McGuire deserving to be injured, only to cool down a bit over the next couple of days - or perhaps seeing that their views were being roundly condemned by most fans from other clubs as well as some of their own? Sadly there will always be a minority who delight in this sort of thing, or are simply too immature to understand what it is they are actually saying.
In any event, I hope Leuluai recovers fully and as speedily as possible.

The number of yongsters Wigan released over the years - that's a large number.

The number of those that would get into the current Wigan side, that's a very small number.

How do you expect a club like Wigan to afford an alleged transfer fee of 300K for Rangi Chase if they didn't offload a load of youngsters to pay for the deal?

The fee received for Joel Tomkins to Rugby Union will pay the majority of it.

You must be rubbing your hands at what's coming to you when Sam, sadly, goes?
Instead of wasting the Tomkins income on someone like Rangi Chase why not put it towards a deposit so you can buy yourself a stadium?

There has been ONE game moved from the DW/JJB in ten years. We don't need to move from the biggest and best stadium in RL ( Hull may disagree on that part)
And for someone from Leeds to question stadia is laughable, how's the South Stand rebuild coming on?
When will the Western terrace be finished?
When's the North Stand/cricket stand going to be started?
Has the pitch been relaid yet?

How much would you boys give not to be shacked up as tenants in a football stadium, taking none of the non-RL income and being bossed around by Dave Whelan? How much would you have given to have been able to redevelop Central Park rather than where you are now? I can imagine the answer will be a protestation of how happy you are with your current arrangements. But we know that's not true.
