| Whatuira is a very, very good centre, Bridge played for England last year, Gleeson didn't. I love this suggestion that players only exist when they move to SL, Delaney's been playing in the NRL didn't you know?
Quote: "Ok, who cares, right now we are the top team in the league, and thats all that matters. The best TEAM always wins the league, so if thats us I will be more than happy.'"
That's a fair enough comment, I don't think it will be Wigan though.

| Quote: Odemwingie "Carmont - Dream team in his first season here. (average)
Gleeson - GB international for years, has been superb for us. (decent player, past his best)
Phelps - Was the best FB at the back end of last year and the start of this year.(average)
Riddell - Outplayed Berrigan and Buderus this year! Has been superb. (average)
Coley - Have you seen him this season?(average)
Hansen, Mossop, Tomkins, Bailey - The best backrow in the league by quite some distance! (average)
Lockers - The best 13 in the competition, also by quite some distance. Decent player not best in his position.

He got injured early, came back when McIlorum got hurt despite not being fully fit, went off again because he couldnt play fully. Then he came back on, had a stormer and got hurt again.

Is that because Bridge is a better player than Gleeson or a certain coach who obviously had something against Gleeson?

| Well played Wigan.
It would be nice to see more English players in the NRL but we don't want an exodus.

| Gleeson has been average for some time, hence not getting picked for England and Warrington getting rid of him to sign Atkins. Indeed Gleeson was very lucky to be around at a time when there wasnt any English centres to choose from. It was a very good bit of business by Warrington, replacing one has been with an up and coming young player with bags of potential. I know many Wigan fans who have been very disappointed by Gleeson and say he has been fairly average since he was signed.
Carmont although good in attack is woeful in defence. He is a fairly average import which has been typical of the English game over the last couple of decades. Newcastle fans couldnt wait for him to leave as he simply wasnt good enough for them. He is not a patch on some of the top centres to play in Super League and shouldnt even be mentioned in the same breath as someone like Gidley.

I thought they got rid of him to sign Mathers?

Very poor attempt at trolling there.

| I like Carmont, he's been a very astute purchase - granted he's no Gidley or Lyon, but then again he's not on Gidley/Lyon money.

Been one of our best signings for a while. Brought us some stability in the centres that we hadn't had for a while.
