| Quote jdrocket="jdrocket":CLAP: Got to agree. Although I hope it still has the same intensity in the stands that the Wigan fans feel towards Hull FC... I mean how else can you explain constantly booing a player low on confidence and then starting a chant about him being a nice person and then finally questioning his sexuality? 80 minute bullying eh?
I do like the intensity though. Hope it doesn't descend into 'potential' racism from a certain set of fans.
but, as you say, 'It's game of Rugby League, not war.''"
I suppose people would put that down to (hate this word) banter?
Some of it was light hearted, some was over the top.
I don't see where "potential racism" would come into it, If you're referring to the Sam Moa incident at The DW then, as far as I know, there's been
no reports of racism apart from on here. If anyone was stupid enough to racially abuse anyone then I hope they get the book thrown at them.
But yes, intensity is good and makes for a good game.
Can't wait.

| Quote jdrocket="jdrocket"For the thick (you trent) I'll explain. I was raising a point about Wigan fans and bringing up crowd trouble (something that has been on your board twice this week) and how this week may be a very bad time to bring up a superiority regarding the actions of those in the crowd. It is a shame that you are too thick to pick that up, but hey!'"
 ahhh attack a mans intelligence when your wrong, please point out the clear evidence that strongly convicts Wigan fans to chanting racist abuse last week and I'll back down. And for your information I have a 1st class honours degree  .

If that's the case why do you get liable and libel mixed up? You must have done a great degree....

Out of interest, because I like your spunk, what did you study at university?
Edit: you're not thick, sorry. You are just really ignorant, is all. Although, you could just say you are fiercely defensive of Wigan rugby.

| Quote jdrocket="jdrocket"I don't have to, Trent, you've missed the point. I said there was potentially racism, there was. I would use the old adage 'there's no smoke without fire' but it doesn't really matter.
Wigan fans have been accused of racism and some have admitted to 'questioning [Jamie Foster's sexuality' on your board. That is all I was pointing out. Again, if you are too thick to grasp that, cool.

A singular ill informed poster wrongly suggested Sam Moa was racially abused, there have been many fans who where in the proximity of the incident denying such an attack occurred. Subsequent to the event no complaint has been submitted by Sam Moa or the Hull FC club strongly suggesting again no racial abuse did occur, despite of all this your accusing me of being ignorant to the facts.

| With such a strong 19 TS will have a real headache selecting his 17.
I have gone with Monas starting at hooker and Simon Grix interchanging with him, my reason for this is to give Mickey H a rest and then play him at Broncos & Wembley and then Brad Dywer giving Monas M a rest next week so he is fresh for Wembley.
Tyrone to interchange with 11, 12 & 13.
Moz & Woody to rotate with Gaz & Hilly.
The only fly in my ointment is if Ben H is not fully recovered, in which case I would place Coops on the bench and have Tyrone at 13.
1 Brett Hodgson
2 Chris Riley
19 Stefan Ratchford
4 Ryan Atkins
5 Joel Monaghan
6 Lee Briers
7 Richie Myler
10 Garreth Carvell
9 Michael Monaghan
20 Chris Hill
11 Trent Waterhouse
12 Ben Westwood
13 Ben Harrison
15 Simon Grix
21 Tyrone McCarthy
8 Adrian Morley
16 Paul Wood
14 Micky Higham
17 Mike Cooper
[size=150If Bridgey is fit for Wembley then I really don't know who I would leave out, Ratch deserves his place. As does Coops, Rhys Evans & Matty Blythe. Some very very good players who have put their bodies on the line for the Primrose & Blue this season will have to be left out. [/size

| According to Brett Finch on BBC Radio Manchester tonight he is playing on Saturday - despite what Wane says. When will coaches learn that mind games really don't work.

| Never thought I’d say this but I’d start with Higham on Saturday, with Monas on the bench.
