"Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily." Napoleon:10604.jpg



Quote: FearTheVee "Not on the wind up, but I think you are still another front line prop and a better hooker away from a dominant front row. GB is a great start though.'"

I'd agree with that.

The pack as a whole looks promising, but the starting prop opposite Burgess and the hooker position hold us back from being 'dominant' i'd say:

8. Burgess
9. Leuluai / Powell
10. Clark / Flower
11. Greenwood
12. Farrell
13. O'Loughlin / Smithies

I'm very happy with the backrow providing Greenwood is punted to the right-edge, but 9 and 10 are 'average' for us now (i'm to be convinced about Clark still).

No bones about it though, this is a top, top signing and along with Hastings is a step in the right direction.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_74166.jpeg



Quote: Phuzzy "Important bit in bold. Care to back it up with how you think a back row containing 2 current internationals isn't a step up on anything else in Superleague.

P..S. Being picked for the elite squad doesn't make you an international. Neither is 1 game in 2017 current.'"

I’ll make this really easy, my opinion is different to yours. I accept I won’t change your mind. You said Jack has never been ]near] the England squad, I pointed out that being in the elite squad must make him “near”.

So why bother posting if you're not adding anything beyond "I disagree"? I'm sure there's hundreds of people who disagree. This isn't a vote! Either put something of substance forward as to why you disagree or your opinion is of no relevance to the debate. Might I suggest you give this a watch. You might see where I'm coming fromhttps://vimeo.com/25921512rl

Depends on your definition of "near". Playing in Superleague makes him "near" if that's your definition of it. Do you honestly see him being picked?

I gave my opinion, it is different to yours, you don’t like my opinion, fair enough.

OK. No need to post in future. I'll just assume you disagree with all my posts from here on in. It'll save us all wasting our time. You're welcome.

I’m not sure why you are in such a tizzy?
I think George Burgess will strengthen Wigan. I think Jackson Hastings will strengthen Wigan. I think next season should be a cracker. Do I conclude from your post that you disagree with me? Anyway I give in, assume what you want.
