Quote: Rogues Gallery "Hansen is better than Harrison'"

For all your knowledge on Wigan, Rogues, you do come out with some crackers from time to time.

Solomona's stats versus Hansen's are also pretty impressive.

Quote: inside_man "I think the only "average" players in Wigans team are Goulding + Deacon (ignoring Marsh, who wouldn't/shouldn't get in the side when everyones fit).

Leuluai isn't average but I just can't figure out where he should play. I rate McIllorum highly, he's a workhorse but his distribution is constantly improving, and he's got a handy kicking game.

I also genuinely don't think there are many better centres than Carmont in the league, I'd only have Bridge over him, and maybe King if he played in the centres + not the wing. I rate him higher than Shenton and the Senior of 2011.'"


do you think Hansen is better than Harrison?

Kiwi's use him as a hooker now. They've tried him at half a few times and of those games that I did see on the box, he copped a lot of criticism from the aussie commentators, who's opinion of him is basically: He's a hooker, and a bloody good one, but not a half back. (ironically, much the same as many on here think about Monaghan).

Quote: NSW "Has Monaghan represented his country?'"


You don't know the answer to this; your knowledge of RL is obviously very limited which explains why you appear not to know about the three international hookers at Warrington.

1) Mickey Higham
2) Jon Clarke
3) Louis Anderson

have all represented their country internationally at hooker.

Always HTH to help a smart-alec Wigan fan.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg



Quote: Rogues Gallery "You have three ex International hookers in your squad. McIlorum has been selected ahead of your two English hookers for the England squad.'"


Paul Prescott has been picked whilst Paul Wood hasn't.

No much credibility in the selections there.

I would much rather have Deacon in my team than Leuluai IMO. On Carmont he is a good solid player to have but i think Shenton is better.

You call Carmont solid, but I'd say his attacking skills are his strength, he makes so many breaks down that left side as well as usually making any overlaps count.



No but I still just think Harrisons a prop. I think Hansen is just a workhorse, tackles solidly all day, pretty good support play, and he'll chip in with a few tries. Wigans version of Paul Clough.

So no, I don't think he's better than Harrison, but I also don't think he's far off, and both of them and pretty far away from average.

Quote: BobWire "I disagree with the original post on what won us the game last year. It was the dismantling of the opposition forward pack that won us the game. We showed them up to be a lightweight side playing very good tactics. '"


Possibly because 3 of Wigan's 5 props last season, Feka, Coley and OCarroll - didn't play?

Not as bad as Wire fans claiming to know Wigan player's wages
