Everyone seems to have a go at him, hope he shut a lot of you up tonight. Well in Gells!

Aside from his tries, I thought he was quite poor tonight. He'll never make it as a winger (i'm aware it's not his position), and I dare say that he'll never make it as a Wigan first team regular

Always liked him and thought he had huge potential. He's raw but his game is coming along and I'm still convinced that long term, he can be a big player for us.

he finishing has improved 100 percent and can only remember him making 2 mistakes.

He not been able to get a good run of matches this season having injured himself twice in the process of scoring tries.

I like him. Despite the odd brain-fart in a game (a sure bet to drop a loose carry in every game he plays) he makes masses of yards and certainly knows his way to the line. Not sure he's a winger, having watched him in the U20's towards the back end of last season at centre (his true position) he was in sensational form.

All in all, in the 'very' few games he's played this season he's scored in most (if not all) of them. Just needs a good run of games (as he's unable to go dual reg).

His finishing is suspect and never puts the ball down as close as he can to the posts. Never a winger, possibly a centre or sr but needs to work on concentration, attitude and professionalism.

He's a lad that's certainly got talent but he's struggling to get a proper run in the team, and when he does play it's out of position. I think he could make a decent 2nd rower one day.

I thought Thornley actually had a pretty poor game.

In the games this season he's finished off pretty well. Last season he wouldn't back himself to the line, would stop dead and step inside (usually getting himself dragged in touch / drop the ball or end up with the ball on the last tackle).

His two tries against Wakefield at the DW (especially the first one IIRC) took some scoring which he managed to squeeze in.

What did he do wrong?
He made less mistakes than Thornley, Hughes or Goulding.

Yes but he's antipodean Rogues if they're not instant superstars they're completely useless you must know the script by now do keep up!

I know, we only had fourteen players who came through our academy in tonights team, so we have to have a go at the foreigners.

I didn't get to go to Wakey but I went last night and I thought Thornley looked a little jaded. He's had two poor performances on the trot now and I'd be tempted to give Gelling an opportunity in the centre position before long.

Thornley is having a cracking season but let's freshen him up. I'd also hate to think we'd let Gelling leave at some point without ever having watched him play at centre in the first team.

Thornley gets nearly two week's off which will help, but I agree you can't beat a little competition to ward off complacency.
I'd pencil Gelling into centre for the Cas game (if fit).

Does Gelling get the chance to play rugby at all? When he isnt in the first team (about 3 or 4 times this year he has been in) is he allowed to play for anyone else? I didnt think he was. Meaning he has gone nearly 2/3rds of a season with 4 games. To play like he does with no hit outs is in itself a credit to the player.

Do some Wigan fans actually know anything about the game?? To question his attitude is just plain ignorance. You can question parts of his game, sure. But to question his attitude is just wrong.
