I guess he must be carrying a knock because the coaching staff are seeing something a lot of the fans arent otherwise. And the stats are on the same side as the fans. www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... eason=2011 Saying that I remember at the beginning of 2010 not long after Mossop signed his long term deal MM taking him out of the squad if his performances werent up to the required standard to keep him on his toes. That certainly didnt do him any harm!!

Statistics do not illustrate the full significance of a player. For instance, they cannot indicate whether a player is constantly out of position and as a consequence allows opposition teams a supreme advantage.

Not directly no, but if your averaging 30+ tackles a game and only missing 1 per game this would suggest that isnt the case.

Faz as gone from being the fans fav to not even gettin a sniff in! !! maguire quoted! !!! if you dont perform you will be replace, he has not stuck by his word! ! i have alot of respect for maguire, but he as clearly got his favourites! !

I definitely prefer Farrell to Tuson, Tuson often goes unnoticed in my eyes, whereas Farrell stands out and is noticeably more involved in the games.

That's because he is a ginge and is hard to miss.

I don't understand how Liam Farrell being left out of the squad means that Maguire picks favourites etc. To me, it's good coaching, keeps Liam on his toes and makes him want to get back in the team. Also, it gives Chris Tuson playing time and builds up his confidence coming to the business end of the season when we meet need him.

I'm a big fan of Liam don't get me wrong, but if Madge see's that Tuson is a better option then I'm not disputing. Can't argue either, we haven't lost a game without Liam playing have we?

Faz himself admits he'd not been playing well before he was droppedhttp://www.wigantoday.net/sport/wigan-warriors/farrell_i_deserved_to_be_axed_1_3559341rl

If you know your rugby and know what your looking for you will know why Faz has been dropped these last few weeks.

The guys is great with ball in hand and clearly runs the lines well. Have a close look at his defence and in-particular the way he goes about it.

30 + tackles a game are good but not if your not winning the ruck!!!!!!!!!

If Faz deserved to be dropped then Tuson deserves to be dropped as well. His defence has been sloppy at times, he's made costly errors and his attack can be almost non-existent. Defence is only one small part of the game, Faz's quality when it comes to running angles and his footwork among the forwards has been missed since Tuson took his place.

faz almost always wins the ruck but this isnt the reason. its his first contact into collision that i believe is being questioned!

Faz doesnt always win the ruck!! What Faz needs and is being coached now is aggression in the tackle. Not being the biggest wont help, but the aggression is the problem.

from what i have seen of faz he is one of the best wrestlers in the tackle and was told by a certain someone that he is in the top 3 wrestlers in the squad so iv never ever thought winning the floor with him is the problem! Iv been told about the aggression in the tackle but whats that got to do with winning the ruck? the aggression (which i dont think i can be tought!) is for getting in and hitting the player harder in the first collision!
