Wane's interview after the game was almost as embarrassing. Wigan might be only 50 miles away but he came across as a grunting, unintelligible ape, who I struggled to decipher what he was actually saying.

Apologies if this posts more than once, having some logging in issues....

ANyway, have any of you any links to Wane as a player on the popular video clip website? Have been looking but cant find anything, I vaguely remember his as a Leeds player, but dont remember anyhting too significant?

Always wore a scrum cap. That's as far as my memories of him playing for Leeds go.

Did he? Are you sure you're not thinking about Mike O'Neil?

Was Shaun Wane the player that was shown concussed on the subs bench when Schoey went over for the winning try in the Premiership playoff game at Cas? The game where Schoey had a perfectly good try incorrectly ruled out by the referee. The game which saw us go through to the next round which is unfortunately remembered for John Gallagher's knock on in the last minute which enabled Hull to snatch the win.

I recall (possibly incorrectly) him arriving to much fanfare from Wigan, and not doing a great deal when he arrived. Which was a bit of a pattern in those days.

I think you may be right. He's even less memorable than I thought.

I believe this is an early photo of him in his younger Wigan days.....rlrl

Been a while since you could fit him in a frame that's taller than it is wide.

Your swelling appears to have gone somewhat awry as well.

Whoosh...

I wish I could have a look of incredibility. That would be, well, incredible.
