Quote: Newton-Le-willows-Warrior "eamon doesnt need to bulk up any more, hes got a small centre of gravity and uses that to his full potential. he punches far above his weight and he will be one of our front line props in a few years. He has been our stand out player this year in all of our games, 100% commitment and pride is all we can ask for and that is what eamon produces.'"


Hi Eamon's dad. icon_wink.gif

No, I agree. Hopefully this injury isn't too bad.

I remember Andy Platt being the prototype for the new prop.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery....... I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself. Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king" 'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure' 'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it' Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg



Quote: giwildgo "Rugby players aren't prototypes - if you get rid of O'Carroll because he does not fit the ideal stature of a prop, despite his obvious talents, then it won't be long until you get rid of Sam Tomkins or Shaun Ainscough for the same reason. The same rational (or lack of) could be applied to both - Sam is undersized for a stand off and Ainscough doesn't fit the profile of a modern winger due to his height. Thankfully some people can see past physical measurements and allow talented players to play in SL regardless of stature.'"


Not true, look at Mc Guire/Burrow at Leeds, Long at Saints, Raynor at Hull, Fox at HKR, Pelo at Catalan, size is not as important as at prop, be honest, if O'Carroll played for another team would you want Wigan to go out and sign him................no, have you ever heard fans from another club say they wished they had him in their team........no, I honestly hope I'm proved wrong and he can go on to be a Wigan player in the future, but I cant see it. I think we'll have to agree to disagree icon_wink.gif

Fans Forum 28.08.08 Fan from Haydock "I've got one word for you Mr Chairman - Penalty Count" [quote="The Daddy"]I've got one word for you all......Steve Hanley[/quote] Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!" I thanked him and went on my Merry way! RIVERCAVE DWELLER OF THE YEAR 2015! "The club used you last night and didn't tell the truth." Officially one of the 119 Mugs used by the club:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg



Prescotts a far better prop in the current set up.

If we had the 3 props of 5 years ago O'Connor/Pongia/Smith You could utilize O'Carroll better but given within the current set up he HAS to do what is expected of a Front Line Experienced Prop then Prescott is far more suited.

If he's prepared to stay here as a 4th 5th choice prop then no problem.

If we are going to be challenging for Top Honours then I'm afraid we won't be doing it with O'Carroll as one of our frontline 2 props.

As for being our Most consistant Forward this year!!!!!!!! icon_rolleyes.gif
