| "At Wigan we are known for being aggressive but we are constantly told to do this within the rules of the game and that punching isn't tough. We may aim to dominate teams, but we don't aim to hurt people."
Shaun Wane in a televised team talk:
"Knock people out. I can't give you any more of a free reign than that. Create mayhem. Be reckless. Because that's what's going to get us a win."
People can make their own mind up about how genuine that Wigan statement is.

He could be Daphne's brother, the one that can't talk properly.

It's one game and one incident, if this happened every other week you'd have a case, as it doesn't and it's an extremely isolated incident your just clutching.

People's emotions are what they really want to do. Why do you feel the need to become abusive? I presume you are feeling rather down today and letting your emotions get the better of you. You have not even the excuse of the heat of the moment in expressing your true character.

Oh the amount of times this has been spouted since last night. You realise Waney knew the cameras where on, yeah? You know that these things are edited, yeah? Or are you that mind-numbingly stupid to believe that's how the best coach in British Rugby League gives his team talks? I think you might just be. Go celebrate your win and leave those of us with intelligence to discuss this with some actual thought.

Tbh i think he is getting annoyed.
Saints win a GF and we get the press out of it.
If i was IL i would phone Don King tell him to book a fight between Sonny Bill and Ben Two Punch Flowers for Wembley Stadium asap. Could be the curtain raiser for the 4 nations. Or phone Dana White of UFC .

No, he bases them on my posts on the VT before "copy and pasting" them under his own username.

I'm rather calm today. Okay so using your logic...someone breaks into your house and you murder them, stabbing them repeatedly in the chest. This is in the heat of the moment. This must mean you're a cold blooded killer and all you think about day and night is murdering people?
Using your logic every time someone's emotions boil over, whether in sport or in life, they should be condemned by those actions, and be told by someone with the academic qualities of a pubic hair, that they did so because this is what they really want to do.
If you believe this, you're a moron, which your last two posts on this thread have shown you to be.

I see you didn't take any of my points and try to debate them.

To be fair, the video of the "team talk" does not appear to be brutally edited so that you could argue that he didn't say those things or that he didn't mean to say them and if you accept that he DID say those things in the context of a motivational dressing room team talk - and thats how it appears to be - then there is at least an outstanding question of how much of a contributing factor was this to the attack to the head of a semi-conscious (at best) player laying prone on the ground ?
