I know theres alot of talk about our players going over to the NRL, also we have seen sum real turd players come over here for a final pay day. Which NRl player has stood out as the best import in a decade.

I would have to go with Jamie Lyon, never seen anyone so good. Made brilliant players look very ordinary week in week out.

Michael Monaghan has been outstanding for us..his Lance Todd award is proof of that.
Jamie Lyon was brilliant for Saints.

Michael Monaghan is outstanding and I enjoyed watching Matt King - a very entertaining player who seemed to have a great attitude.
Pat Richards has become depressingly good for Wigan - I don't even gasp when he climbs up for the high balls any more; it's just what he does.
From a WTW perspective, whilst I acknowledge we don't have a particularly good record in this dept, Shane Tronc was quietly brilliant for us - one of the best props I've seen at BV and iirc, was top of the metres made and offloads stats for several weeks after he went home in a huff; shame about what happened to him. I think we may have cancelled out that good work though by inflicting Jarrad Hickey on SL, albeit briefly.

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

'Its like the jungle out there, only the strong survive and the weak get killed off and that's whats happened in Hull. They'll run to the end of the season then that's it, they'll be gone, there will be no more Hull Kingston Rovers there's no room for them.'

Jamie Lyon was a fantastically gifted player who shone for the two years he was here.
Pat Richards, after a first difficult year in Super League, has been brilliant for Wigan ever since.

Agree Pat Richards, Jamie Lyon & Michael Monaghan are the best players I've seen come over here
To go in a different direction, I would say Trent Robinson, Turned Catalan into a very good side who look capable of challenging come the end of the season
From a Salford point of view, Andrew Dunemann was amazing for us, for the one season he was at our club he turned us from relegation candidates to 5th in the table

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround."
An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42181.jpg |

Steve Menzies??? Although, the Aussies find it amusing that a 38 year old rips SL up, but that might be just their humour.
I'm not saying he's the best but Rangi "Roger" Chase is up there - 3 years player of the year at Cas, 2011 Man of Steel, 2011 Albert Goldthorpe winner.
