| Think this bloke deserves some praise tonight to be fair after what was a bad result.
Ran some good lines and certainly added punch. I wasnt impressed after Leeds but given he is still settling in and im expecting to see the best from him next season I was impressed tonight.
He ran hard and tackled hard and added a quick play the ball along with Crosby.
Im quite glad with what happended with LMS as im sure he isnt the only one whos wanted to smack the cockney. He has also laid down a marker like Flower did in 2014 GF which means other props in future wont want to mess with him now.
Anyway, im excited by seeing him Crosby and Clubb in the same team. Thought mossop ran well tonight as well and is worth keeping.

I know your a joke when you mention Crosby, Mossop and props in the same sentence.

| Said to the the Mrs tonight it was nit a good game for FPN to play in. 5000 masks, home debut, not consistently played a game at the top level in months, a coach that clearly condones aggression and a local derby. It was a no win situation playing him.
Very poor selection.

| They should have signed Ryan Bailey, at least it would have been cheaper.

I love the language you used there, "condones aggression". When did aggression become so, excuse the pun, frowned upon?

Controlled aggression is great. Over stimulation though results in a decline in performance. Inverted U theory it is a basic principle of sports psychology.
Keep coming son. I have this all day. X

| FPN hasn't looked good in the two games he's played but don't forget he's not played first grade for something like 3 month as gold Coast didn't pick him.
Realistically if I was a Wigan fan, I'd just be thinking of FPN for next year and this year is a settling period.
It's never easy in any sport coming in at business end of the year to a foreign country with new team mates and systems but I'm pretty sure he will be good signing in the long run.
I still wish saints had signed him!

Fair enough, I can't argue with scientific research
like I said though it was the way you worded it that I took issue with, saying "condones aggression" makes it sound like you want Wane strung up for encouraging his players to have a bit of testicular fortitude.
