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



The article gives no substance to us being up for sale but it wouldn’t surprise me if IL is starting to get the club prepped up to sell in the next few years.

He will need to demonstrate to any prospective buyers that we can turn a profit, so I’d guess that’s where the penny pinching might be coming from. Rather than simply “IL is skint maate”.

He’s had a good decade and could flog EHR for a handy return to a construction company.

Quote: Mash Butty "I'm glad IL didn't sign Gareth Widdop it was a wise decision. The dragons have done a great job of covering up his injury from last season. They moved him to full back so he could slowly & quietly be rehabbed without the tackling commitments that a half back makes. As soon as he got a tiny tap on his shoulder, it completely broke down. It was a good choice to stay clear.'"

They moved him to FB as he's no longer in the Dragon's future planning. The recurring shoulder problem is a big concern for me, and I just hope that he has more luck with it, if and when he wears the P&B.
Injuries are just part and parcel of the game, as you have experienced with Manfredi and Burgess, to name but two.

Widdop with two dislocated shoulders would still be a better acquisition than Sammut. You 'steered clear' because you're potless....and by potless i mean skint not trophyless....you've got loads of them.

And you're not skint and yet ARE trophyless.

Which is the more admirable position, I wonder ... to do more with less, or less with more?
