Quote: NickyKiss "I'm not convinced Mossop's ever been quite as good as his early billing tbh. He's a bit too nice for a prop forward if you get what I mean. He does a job for the team but he just lacks that bit of spice to take his game on a level. He sums up how our side has been in general these past couple of years in a way. He's pretty consistant and stands out against the lesser sides but when the big games come round and the gap in quality closes he can be found wanting.

He'd be in my fully fit 17 but probably from the bench.'"



Agreed. He is going to have to play a lot better in the big games if he is ever to pove himself in the NRL. Every game will be like that game last night and I fear for him in Aus if he plays like that. Teams and the media will tear him to bits.

Quote: Wigan28/Leeds18 Andy "It's a pain in the proverbial, Dave, trying to move posts out into others.

Suggest that it now moves back to Powell and any posts off topic just get deleted - which I've already done. Same for other threads as well.'"


Yes OK. The idea of moving several odd posts elsewhere using the mechanisms available wasn't exactly a great prospect.

23 - 20 - 4 Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png



Quote: Fylde_Warrior "Andy Powell could look after himself with the best playing his first sport, Union. Playing League he is trying to learning a virtually new sport and as such is 'vulnerable' albeit lucky RL is much cleaner now. It did not matter that Stuart Evans was the biggest player on the pitch because he was 'out of his depth' If you played sport at a decent level you would also understand about the fragility of confidence and self belief. Last time I looked, neither were size related.'"


So Andy Powell had fragile confidence and self belief? Did he tell you that himself? Shame on Wane for playing him.

I'll answer that for you. You don't have a f'ing clue how prepared or willing Powell was to make his debut. Or how 'vulnerable' he was. Or if Wane asked how he felt about playing or if he was ready to play.

That's the last I'm going to say on it.

He needed to play his first game at some point, and it was going to be a struggle. If he played tomorrow he'd already look a lot stronger just from having that first run out under his belt imo. I would give him time at the Scorpions, but I definitely believe there's a lot of potential in him as a rugby league player.

I don't think I've ever seen an overreaction like this thread. If we'd won by the margin we'd lost and he played exactly the same as he did, this thread wouldn't be anything like the drama it is now.
