I'm hoping we don't make the mistake of taking any risks. It's just 2 points at the end of the day and not the end of the world if we don't get them.

And now we have two of the buggers. Both of whom I would bestow with the Title of ‘classy centres’

Both can draw in defenders and get that pass away and we Have lacked that since Carmont.

It’s dead good being a Wigan fan currently. Just wish the game was the same as it used to be.. but that’s a different matter for other threads.

We were talking about that during the game and reminiscing about the days of Bibby and Isa! Talk about worlds apart.

Keighran looks so comfortable in the side and Wardle is just immense. Ian Watson must have rocks for brains!

Quote: NickyKiss "It’s great problems to have fitting all these lads in but you worry how we can get Forber a regular enough game to develop. Down the track maybe O’Neill could play games at 13, where I think he’d be equally effective but Ellis has made such an impressive start to his time in the 13 shirt. Losing lads is the price you pay for developing so many but something will have to give at some point. I’ve seen bits of the academy hooker Tom Ratchford as well and he looks a fabulous young player.'"


Time will tell I suppose. Injuries will always allow opportunity for the younger lads, regardless of where they are in the pecking order.

Quote: WWste "I don’t mind them being in SL because I like Ken Davy and applaud him putting the money in year after year even though the crowds are low. I wonder what has happened I know they had their purple patch around the time Danny Brought was there finishing in the top 4, have fans dropped off with them always coming up short? I do hope they could turn it around and bring fans through the door as they have good foundations; decent stadium, decent squad, owner willing to invest'"


Ken Davy seems like a decent bloke and it's commendable how he's stuck with them. I don't think however, that he's had a positive impact on RL.

Yeah they are a well run club (even tho they make huge losses), but there has to be more than that. RL, imo, is also about passion & atmosphere and Hudds don't bring either to the table. Yeah, they can sign the occasional big name, but when fans look at the fixture list, they know Hudds at home is going to be a dull affair. Even teams like Cas, Wakey, Salford etc, who haven't been as consistent as Hudds, get home fans more excited.

Also, they've been in the league what, 20+ years now? I can name 5 - 10 players of note that they've produced in that time. It's not good enough. They are the epitomy of teams that leech off the likes of us, Saints & Leeds. Let us do the real hard work developing. Let us bring away fans to swell your attendances or cup finals (don't get me started on the 22 CC Final). Let us put shows on like last week, or Good Friday and keep the TV exec's even half interested in the sport.

Apart from an owner who loves his team, what do they bring to the table?

Very happy with the result. I thought that for the first 20 minutes or so we were excellent considering it was less than 6 days since the WCC. Huddersfield showed some nice touches at times but overall they continue to under delivery.
O’Neil for me mom and currently the best hooker in SL. Ellis is improving at a rapid rates of knots and on present form our best forward most games.
A nice little cameo from Forber. Can’t wait to see him given extended minutes. He’s perpetual in motion.
Keighran showed some nice touches in attack but I was a little disappointed that he failed to take the high ball that resulted in a Huddersfield try. He’s obviously an aggressive player, which is what I like in all players, but he needs to channel his aggression as per O’Neil.
Another great crowd. Loads of children with their parents which is fantastic to see. The club are doing most things right at the moment and for me attracting younger fans is very high on the list.
Nice to see Thompson post some good minutes too.
