Do people still say:
Errrr Ney?

It's still big in Wigan

I will

. It's not something I've ever noticed with him, he's not a great orator and his interviews aren't sparkling, but I've never thought he was overly sarcastic or smirked.

Whether he's likeable or not is not something I can comment on as I don't know him, but he does lack the charisma of someone like Millward.

I've only seen the interview after the last game v Wakey and he seamed fine. He can see the penalty count is a problem and blames himself for that.

I must have missed the memo where mea culpa is now defined as arroagance rather than the buck stops here.

Rush comes across as a bit of a bottom kisser, the type of bloke who just says what he thinks his boss or the players want him to say.

I'll bet he'll really happy to stand down if Sts win the CC and/or the GF, or so he'll say.

When he blames himself in his comments regarding the penalty count, he is quite obviously being tongue in cheek.
He believes that the penalty count was completely unwarranted; in fact he alludes to that before he makes the "it must be me" comment.

He said he couldn't understand it and he will need to speak to Cummings about it for guidence for his own ignorance; so he knows how to be sarcastic!

I'm surprised there was no thread about the very odd one sided pen count. In a match we dominated it is strange the pens should go against us.

Not really. If the pens we conceded were in the less harmful areas of the field then they need not impact the level of domination. Of course we were also helped by the fact that Wakey couldn't really exploit the 15 opportunities we granted them. Our discipline has been poor all season so that we conceded so many doesn't surprise me.

Yes really. I think if you dug out the stats from RL Express etc it would be rare to see a winning team concede a lot more penalties than the losing opposition. You generally give away penalties when you are losing the collision and losing metres; not when you are dominant

Great picture of the 2 coaches going up against each other this Week!

I wonder how many of you sintelliners who call Shaun Wane an ape from the comfort of your keyboards would be man enough to call it him to his face?

Don't all line up at once, wimps.

Errrrr, ney.
