total rubbish if you ask me. so what if its been leaked about our tactics. isn't a tactic part of the sport? its a defensive technique / tactic and as far as i'm aware is 100% legal according to the rules of the sport - therefore is not cheating. icon_rolleyes.gif

ok so a few of our tackles, namely lima, of late have come under close scrutiny but how on earth does the sport expect its players and coaches to gain experience and skills without trying something new. the sport as far as SL is concerned is still young in comparison to many other sports so why bring it down with this utter garbage? the press should be behind the sport not against it and nobody should be criticizing any team for using fair tactics in order to win a game.

ok if it gets out of hand then deal with it then. until then, its pointless dribble so let the game be the game.

at the rate we are going there will soon be a weight cap as well as a salary cap and no squad of 17 will be allowed to be over a combined weight of 150 stone or something, just so nobody gets hurt. tick rugby here we go... icon_frustrated.gif

Quote: proper-shaped-balls "You seem to be implying that Lima's "silly antics" hurt/injured someone. This is not the case.'"


The challenge on Soliola (think it was him) at Millenium Magic was a bad one and could have injured him. But you are correct, I don't think anyone has actually been injured by him.

Soliola didn't do or say anything about that tackle. He just got up and played the ball.

Which is a lesson to Wilkin! But doesn't make the challenge any better!

Quote: AJ "Will certainly be interesting come the game at the KC. I wonder if any Hull player will be unavailable that day.

Wilson has an anti Wigan agenda, you only have to hear him on GMR or follow him on Twitter to see that. The story itself is pathetic, we have agressive defence is the upshot?

The reason why RL in the Uk will never be anything but a minority sport is people like Andy Wilson, we have a champion team, who can match it with the NRL clubs, we play to large crowds in a modern stadium, we have great facilities, youth development and push the boundaries with marketing. But that is to be shot and sniped at in an effort to influence the powers that be at Red Hall and keep reminding them that sponsors like Engage and clubs like Wakefield and people like Kear are actually big time and will make the code of League relevant.'"


I don't suppose we can ever prove that he has an anti-Wigan agenda, despite the evidence we often see before our eyes. But whether he does or doesn't, to write an article as negative as that, based on 'evidence' so unreliable that his newspaper wouldn't let him print it, add spice with the embittered, one-eyed drivel of a micro-intellect like John Kear, and then basically present it as a form of preview to the Wigan and Saints game (a match which was always likely to prove great entertainment) is a very strange policy for someone who supposedly cares about Rugby League.

Wouldn't it be nice if someone like Wilson occassionally used his position to say: "Today you are are going to witness a magnificent spectacle of skill, athleticism and controlled aggression - two of the best sides in the country are going to rip each other to shreds in a desperate battle for two vital league points. Tune in or miss a treat."

If the response to that point is that his editor won't let him, then he should show real loyalty to RL and go and work for someone who will.

Mr Wilson doesn't sound very anti-Wigan in the Guardian today.
