| Quote Burtons Forearm="Burtons Forearm"A flat track bully...Chris Burton. Do you know what one is? Go look it up you oaf.
Burton was a bully yes...ask Messrs Wane Wally Lewis most of the Australian teams from 84 to 86 he took them all on. Famously leaving Paul Dunn and Wally Lewis spread eagled on the central park pitch.
Smith is the opposite. Turns up when his team is on top. Plays well against poor teams. No leader certainly no back bone.'"
Yeah, I also remember the dirty c**t leaving Shaun Wane spread eagled at Elland Road in the JPS Final in 86. His famous 'forearm smash' running through on Wane in an off the ball incident. Did he get to collect his losers medal from the 'early bath' that day? |

Slightly better than Wire but way behind Leeds and Saints during the SL era:

Your are right Wane looks like an excellent coach with 1 away win in 10 months. His record of taking a dominant SL side that didn't loose away in the league for 17 games straight under Maguire is coaching genius.'"
Corrected for accuracy!!!!!!
Although , Like most Wiganers, You have completely forgotten about last year. |

Fair enough.
I guess i got the selective memory from you guys who seem to have forgotten RL existed before SL.
The REAL total sits at -20 vs 13 |

This is the 2nd thread I've had to clean up because of 7 year olds throwing snot at each other. Grow up or I'll tell your mum you're up after bedtime because the babysitter is gash.

Maguire brought half the Melbourne team with him. Didn't have a squad of academy players.
Oh and didn't he leave the ´ biggest´ club in rugby for bigger and better things?
I should study more. Your not behind wire in grand final wins. Have they won more challenge cups in the modern era than Wigan?
6-3 would be........double the amount ie twice as many, twice as far....way ahead. |

| As an FC fan, still not convinced former prop forwards make the best coaches 
Wane was lucky to inherit the strong foundation put in place by MM.
It would have been hard for any coach to fail with what he was left with.
Now, after a few years, his true influence is being felt.
Trouble is, if you get rid of him won't Deacon just take over?. I always thought that was your owners long term plan.
Can't you try and poach Radford off us? |

Coaches like SW have a limited shelf-life. Shouting and swearing will only motivate players for so long before the influence starts to wear off. I'm not saying that's all SW has in his locker, but he seems to sit in the motivational coach camp, rather than the technical guru camp.
