Would generally agree, however the abuse he gets from Wigan "fans" is ridiculous. Today he was slated for doing something that a fellow "unknown" player had done immediately before - but because it was him everyone gets on his back.

I know he's a fulltimer and a "Pryce" so treated at a higher standard, but I trust Shaun Wane and Phil Veivers and as long as he wears a Wigan shirt it would be nice for fans to not abuse him - even if you don't want to encourage him.

As for my opinion on Pryce playing wise, its a shame that someone with so much obvious natural talent appears not to have a competitive bone in his body - and not an ounce of adrenalin or passion. Would not get a renewed contract for me (and I don't need to verbally abuse a player but can still have that opinion).

Yeah I've corrected it on the site and have been told by a few now the correct side so cheers to all.

wigan.rlfans.com/fusion_pages/in ... age_id=873 Updated the Reserve Team page on the site now so you can see who's doing what.. I count 37 players have now been involved in the 11 reserve team games.

Alex you really must get your facts right before posting. The loud common woman and her merry band, as you so put it, was not the person who shouted that Pryce was lazy, that came from a woman that was sat on the back row. In fact in all the time I have been attending these matches I have never heard her get on the backs of any of the Wigan players, the ref yes and on Saturdays performance it was justified. As for confronting the ref after the game no I didnt agree with that at all. As I have previously posted I dont live in Wigan so I dont have the insider knowledge that Rogues seems to have. Why is Karl Pryce still not fit? We are nearly 5 months into the season how much longer does he need? Is there something that you know and we dont, perhaps you could enlighten us so that we could understand why he looks like he cant be bothered.

I posted on another thread about Sam Tomkins badgering Phil Vievers after about 10 minutes because Sam wanted to get on the field and play.

When I watch Pryce I get the feeling that he wants to get off the field. At every opportunity he is stretching his hamstrings.

Someone who plays and trains with him said Pryce needs a really good hard pre-season to sort him out.
Jonh is far better qualified to reply to that comment.

As Pryce is not really holding anyone back (maybe Stefan Marsh) I would be inclined to give him another year providing he is not taking up a lot of "cap space"

There is no doubt that some of the things he "can" do could win us games, but he needs to change his attitude.

Can he?

He can but he just doesn't seem willing too. He reminds me of someone I used to play with at St Pats, has all the size, power, speed, weight and rare talent he need's but he just doesn't use it. Whether thats because he can't be bothered, doesn't have the mental toughness or just doesn't believe in his own ability, I don't know.

He has the potential to be as good as Leon IMO.
