Especially with piggy leaving, he's a massive character leaving the club.

Quote: pk "this board gets better and better.

if we re-signed guys like tim smith or dennis moran now, given their reputed off field abilities, thered be dozens of you queueing up to say it was a good signing.

yes maguire is doing a fantastic job, yes we are a better side than any post 2000/01 ish, and yes finch has a good nrl and SoO track record but does it not make any of you drop down from being 10/10 in love with the guy to maybe 9.9/10 when he says he loves a beer more than anyone? more than gary connolly? more than lydon? boston? more than green vigo?????? if so then king streets in for a treat!'"


I have absolutely ZERO issue with any player consuming as much Alcohol as they want PROVIDED it does not affect their performance on the field. 257 first grade games, and extremely positive things said about the guy lead me to feel it's a complete NON ISSUE.

Why should it affect my judgement of Maguire that he's signed a good talented player, just because the guy likes a few scoops. If he had a track record like George Best then fair enough, but I'm pretty sure in that case Maguire would not have signed him.

Players like Willy Mason are the ones who I have a problem with, who disrupt clubs and put in pish poor can't be bothered performances, yet has never come out and said 'I like a beer more than anyone' - I notice how we're not pursuing that type of player.

King Street could be in for the biggest treat ever, and It would not phase me one bit if the players performance is what's required. It's their personal life and I couldn't give a flying one what they do in it provided they stay within the boundaries of the law and don't let their Job suffer.

It's also incredibly insulting that you try to turn it into some sort of blind love in for Maguire and bring up such ridiculous statements about Tim Smith and Denis Moran. And to be fair to both of those players, they were actually decent players that for whatever reason didn't live up to past abilities whilst in a Wigan shirt.

Rugby League player in drinking shame!

I'm with the majority here. So what if Finch likes the odd pint? It clearly doesn't affect his game too much or he wouldn't have rep honours. After Gleeson's indiscretions earlier in the season it looks like Madge runs a pretty tight ship and nobody is beyond reproach so Finch will have to toe the line

How would you know, though? He may be even better if he reduced his intake.

I'm sorry, i'm personally of the view that if an employee is doing everything I want of them, and meeting all the goals i've set them, then I have bugger all right to criticise them or expect more - you must be a lot of fun to work for.
