In Lancashire, babies don't toddle, they sidestep.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47309.png



spotted Amos and Finchy in orrell today,didn't appear to be limping or like a man who was going in for an operation infact the way he ran back to finchy's car I'd play him at the weekend.
for the record the people slagging him off,have you forgotten the way he was playing before he got injured wearing our shirt,the guy was awesome,if he can get back to anywhere near that we need to keep hold

Quote: MattyB "Not a chance. Vaeliki was gash for all but one game.

Roberts was sublime for a third of our season last year - a cert for MOS, had he not smashed his leg into the posts then we'd probably be sat at the top of the league right now having enjoyed a week off. But hey ho.'"
And Sam would still be a stand off.

At his age to come back from so many ops to be an outstanding talent once again is a tough ask, that doesn't even contemplate what phychological effects recent events have had on Amos.

Secondly are we in a position to give Amos first team action? Many think moving Sam into the halves is the solution, which is questionable considering his best games have been as a fb. Seems silly to move him from a position where he has a free role in attack allowing Sam to express himself fully in attack.
I don't think I've seen Amos have a particularly good game on the wing, plus I would pick Josh and Pat over him any day of the week.

In conclusion considering his age and our current line up I have to say Amos should move on. We could use his cap salary and quote space to enhance the team in key areas. I.e a centre 6 or 9.

I think the only way Amos can be brought back into the team is via the wing. His confidence is completely shot and it would destroy him to throw him out at fullback where he is most exposed and has set high standards not only with his own form but with Sams aswell.

If he does stay at Wigan next year i'd like to see the new coach at least try Amos at 2 and Charnley at 3 to see how it goes.
