Thoroughly enjoyed it,just showed how much I had missed "The Greatest Game" during the close season.

3 of them aren't current players.

As for Richards, did you actually watch the game? He didn't catch a high ball all night.

Sam Tomkins has only really had one good game against us, the cup win at our place, he had spells in the 22-20 win you had too also at our place, as a team i think we know how to deal with him better than any other, i'll include the Aussies in that too.

Briers spiral bombs are good, high and linger in the air for ever but there are plenty of FB past and present who could deal with them better. He needs to be a tad braver, Wire do hang them up to put big hits on the FB, i think that was in the back of his mind a little bit, i still remember that one he copped at Leeds, he probably does too.

Didn't have a great game Friday night, but we still played pretty well.
Nice to know we're not a 1 man team like a lot of other clubs fans think.

I've noticed that other boards seem to think we're screwed when he does go but then the other half say he's useless?

I thank them all for their obvious concerns for the Wigan club that in no way are blinded by their own self hatred of Wigan.

I'll stand by what I've said before, if he stays for the next 2 seasons and produces the level of performance we've seen for the last 3/4 then ill state that he's as good as anything I've seen at Wigan.

The kind of player that makes you want to go to a game and pay to watch week in week out, something SL severely lacks.

I want all the best players playing over here improving this league, not playing in theNRL "testing" themselves, or going rah rah for the cash.

I want to think of ways of keeping these players in our league whilst others seem to want them to leave to "even up" the competition and disguise their views as concern for Tomkins or whichever players career.

We could sign him, at least he'll still be in this league for you to watch him, boyhood club and all
