Says in the Sun the other day that Wigan as taken up the option of the 12 month extension that was in is contract so you will not see him at Hull next season.

Not quite sure what you mean by that post? I don't mind anyone having an negative opinion on players as long as there's reasoning behind it and a good debate follows. But to say worst winger/centre for Wigan ever?

IMO, you don't have to go that far back. He's twice the player Karl Pryce was for us. Aspinwall, Wes Davies, possibly even Ainscough (minus the blistering speed, certainly better in defence).

I'm not even going to mention the early 80's (Bamford, Murphy years)!

They have but Hull are willing to pay a fee and Wigan won't keep him if he says he wants to go (which is meant to be the case).

He/she was referring to the 'like' box

There is a poster on Mike's forum that claims to know both Taylor and his wife and he says the pair of them know nothing about asking to go leave to go back to Hull. He is adamant about it.

Of course that doesn't mean IL wouldn't sell him if offered enough cash!

Manfredi hasn't done much wrong intact he has been really good, Charnley will have to improve on his last few games in a Wigan shirt.

I was quite impressed with Manfredi on Saturday. He seems really strong for his size and even though I haven't seen any stats he appeared to make decent yards with the ball when he had it.

I've heard it all now people are staring to slate Gelling in the words of Steven Mulhearn "Unbelievable" He's been one of our best players this season and been our most threatening attacker by far. What i would personally like to see is Rocky Hampshire given a staring role in the halves maybe see what he can do although i can see why shaun found it hard to leave george out because he's been outstanding in both defence and attack.

Gelling was probably your best player yesterday. I also found it strange how he left it so late to being Hampshire on.

If your playing is as clueless as your ability to judge a player, then no you couldn't do better. Clown

So (rhetorical question), why has he been dropped?

No contest imho. I like Manfreidi but he's not even a shadow of the player Josh is. Charnley is a 30 tries a season winger, guaranteed.

we missed Green yes, but I think that was emphasised more due to the fact that they played Williams there who IMO didn't play very well at all. I agree with Hampshire getting a go with Bowen back at FB, no idea why he was an unused sub until around 60 mins. crazy tactics.

By the time he came on the rest looked so downhearted that he was reduced to running at the line like a miniature prop forward without even a support runner to put a bit of doubt in the mind of the opposition.
