To be honest, i don't watch Wigan that often and didn't see them on friday either because Wire were playing the only time i have seen Lockers this season was against us imo he didn't do alot he wasn't a stand out player certainly. I watched him last season and he didn't do anything for me either but that's just my opinion.

And yet you're adamant in your dismissal of him ???

Trust me, if Lockers was as useless as some non-Wigan fans make out, we would be the first to offer criticism - we've done that regularly in the past. But the lad's efforts in recent months have been stirling. Likewise, he wouldn't be one of the first on Michael Maguire's teamsheet every week, if he wasn't doing an awful lot of good on the pitch (even if laymen like yourself can't see it).

You are at least different in that you admit you haven't seen Lockers much and therefore aren't well qualified to comment. But you still sound like a Wire cliche to me.

Lockers doesn't just play for Wigan, he's a born Wiganer, he's one of our captains, he's long been associated with the club through his family, etc (and he's always played well internationally, which is unforgivable to some non-Wiganers), so whatever happens you won't give him any credit.

A pathetic attitude to be honest ... in my opinion.

Well like you say its all about opinions, I try to judge players on the biggest stage, ie test level as superleague level is often poor. We dont have many world class players in this country, but lockers is for my money, he has been outstanding in the internationals over the years, and can be counted along side the likes of Graham, Morley, Burgess and Ellis as our world class players. To be fair I think in a few seasons we will have more to add to that list with Sam, Eastmond and possibly Myler (not seen enough of him yet) which i think we can all agree regardless of team alliances is only a good thing!

However i do see why other fans see him as over-rated, but you can really, really tell when he isnt on!

Fair point. Like i say i haven't seen him much this season so it's unfair of me to judge - sorry.

Has anyone told Leeds there`s a salary cap , perhaps it doesn`t apply to them

sometimes you cant believe what you have read, and this is one of those times.

lockers is one of the very few world class players in SL. Wigans best player IMO.

and sometimes you have to accept that people have different opinions and don't live in a wigan box.

Some have different opinions, which is fine.

Others such as your good self, merely talk a crock of e, .

Lockers is miles ahead of Ben Harrison, but believe me I am a massive fan of Harrison. I believe he will suit prop when he is a little older though. He is not creative like Lockers is, he cannot act as an extra half-back which I believe a top 13 needs to at times.

And others have opinions that are totally Anti Wigan irrespective of what they see (ar as you admitted Don't see) in front of them yet still feel the need to post their Wigan Hate Filled comments about such subjects because they can't help it!
It seeps through in every post, and then they back track & pretend it wasn't a dig in the 1st place!

Calm down.

I wonder if the 'spirit' of the cap does, or is that just us ??

Just another point that your coach picked him for England everytime ahead of sinfield and the rest, but he always got injured. If TS was still England coach and Lockers was fit he'd play every match.

Thats just us, but if we win something, I expect a flurry of rule changes for next season.

Well thats not true as he has 14 offloads so far this season.
