what so you lot think of gleeson?

as all probably know that we were more than happy to get rid of him at warrington.

i thought he offered nothing whatsoever to your attack today (or your defense)

Didn't offer much, but didn't make mistakes unlike Mathers. I know which I'd rather have.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



He had a bad game but he is one of the best defensive centres in the league.

His time will come when we get a decent pack and our half backs can play the game properly and get the ball out to him.

would you care to expand on that?

i thought the general opinion amongst you was that your halfbacks are fantastic

Leuluai is a hooker IMO. Tomkins is a fantastic young player making the most of the space he gets. Sam Tomkins would be great wire wire playing behind that pack.

I'm very happy with him.

It's been a while since we've had a genuine right centre and his defence is spot on

I don't think he's built up a partnership with his winger yet which doesn't help his attack

He may have been a little quiet today but that's down to having to fill in for Bailey when he went off and being out coached

He's been good for Wigan.
Did nothing today as like all the backs and halves were behind a pack that were over run.

Was he even playing today? I saw his name on the team sheet and thats about it. King totally outplayed him and scored a hat trick and that says it all. I actually thought Gleeson would be getting slaughtered on here and not Roberts but he doesnt seem to be. It is like Wigan fans are still in denial about him. Why do you think Warrinton wanted rid, just ask any Warrington fans about how poor/ average he is on a week to week basis, never mind his attitude. He is a player on the decline and has lost his speed and some of his footwork and finds touch as often as he does his winger. He goes missing for entire matches and his defence is also poor at times. He isnt even as good as Carmont. £100,000 + Mathers, what a rip off icon_lol.gif

It is just like Fielden all over again. Wigan sign an overated, overhyped and over the hill player. You would have been better signing 2 good props instead.

i totally agree.

i expected him to be getting pelters on this forum.... but it doesnt apper to be the case.

i think his best days are well behind him.. he was poor for us.. a lazy centre who often goes missing when the chips are down.

(mathers is worse comment goes here)

I would still welcome Gleeson into the Warrington team. If we sign Ryan Atkins to replace Gleeson then I'm not sure how much of an improvement that is.

Put Gidley in that wigan team. Would he look as good as he does at Saints? When you have no structure to your attack like wigan, its difficult to get him into a position where he can weave his magic. More often than not, Saints will put gidley into a position where he is attacking the defense on a good line or angle, with the defense scrambling.. From what ive seen, Gleeson is getting the ball stood square against his defender.

maybe that was the reason Gleeson was in the Super League dream team when he was at Warrington, it was the players around him made him look good?

Thought mathers played well to be honest!! He made one mistake when taking a tough bomb!! and the error didn't cost his team dear did it? I think some of you lot need to get over mathers!! Some of you lot are like a bitter ex girlfriend!! As for gleeson he hasn't Been anywhere near a good player since he left saints!

If Smith deemed him not needed and not motivated enough to play for the club, surely you'd trust Smith and not welcome him back? He's a good player who done well for us, but surely his attitude and lack of desire for the club, is enough to put you off him welcoming him back?

EXACTLY

i, for one, would be disgusted if he ever came back to play for wire... i never rated him and was very happy to see the back of him... smith couldnt get him out of the club fast enough....
