You proclaimed that Wigan had a lot of average players.
When challenged you came up with
No mention of average Warrington players at this point, only Saints ones although the Dwayne West is quite tenuous one as he only started eight games for Saints and had 15 subs appearances in three seasons.
Tommy Leuluai is a World Cup winner, a four nations winner and a m.o.m, in last years Grand Final winning team.
At no point have I stated that Ben Harrison is an average player (I actually think that he is a good player) it's just that Harrison Hansen IMO is a better all round player, and is certainly NOT average.
HTH'"
and with that m'lud, I rest my case for the poorer Hansen in this "arguement"

| Wigans team is greater than the sum of its parts and I feel are more of a star team than a team of stars. Individually the Warrington team is stronger, particularly when all are fit.
We shall see.

I'd probably agree with that. I do think however that Warrington are a lot more overly reliant on 2 or 3 players (Briers/Morley/Monaghan) than Wigan, I feel we could cope with key players being out better (see Hudds last week for example, Tomkins/Finch/Fielden etc out.)

| This thing about Finch gets to me. He hasn't even played for Wigan yet so how could they miss him anyway? The days of Warrington not coping without Briers were ended last season and Morley has missed games and been withdrawn from games this year. Much has been said about Wigan missing players, but Atkins, King, Anderson (all internationals) and Cooper are all out.

I used Saints as an example, as they too have been a champion team. Apart from that, you've pretty much confirmed what I posted earlier. If you had any idea, you'd realise that Harrison is prop/second row hybrid. I mentioned average Warrington players as somebody asked me. The reason I didn't use us initially as we aren't a champion team as Saints and Wigan are. You then turned it into a dick measuring contest between Harrison and Hansen. Then many people chose to laugh at you.

Not even sally could make a case for that one.
Think we will chalk this one down next to your 'Karl Pryce is a quality player'.

The subject of the quote was Hanson. So if you use he as a pronoun, by the way a pronoun is a word that replaces a noun, you can only do so (without explicit reference to) for the sudject of the first clause not the subordinate one.
Allow me to explain, you wrote;
We have heard he has to use velcro because he can't tie his laces
Due to quote you used Hasen replaces he
So substituting the pronoun you used for the proper noun.
We have heard hansen has to use velcro because hansen can't tie his laces
I'm not sure this is what you meant. Try again.'"
This has got to be the saddest post I've seen so far.

23997_1287161421.jpg [quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

| FFS both teams have average players a team would not work if every player was a world beater they would all be trying to out do each other
Tonight i hope there is blood,sweat and tears on that pitch and wigan to be infront on the score board (which i think will happen) i think our defence will edge it for us
The diffrence between the 2 teams is wire have paied out for players to come in and wigan have brought most through the ranks with a good coach showing them what to do smith wouldn't have been able to do that at wigan

Sounds like you really know what you're talking about.

you're right... smith hasn't turned us around at all.
From finishing outside the playoffs to 3rd and back to back challenge cup wins... He obviously doesn't know what he is doing.
if anything....He has turned us around MORE than 'madge' has done for you.
