Hampshire was steady notthing more certainly not the game changer some people were expecting indeed i'd say Sarge more than matched him frankly.

Not playing tonight and dorn hat trick as it stands now, cant see him getting a game again unless injuries strike again

They'd rather play a fat, slow hooker at half than Hampshire. Says it all for him I'm afraid.

He must wonder where his careers heading tonight. Not even a place on the bench.

Still made a fool of Salford last week and was playing well until he went off this evening (potential injury). Just shows how petty you are having to insult other teams players.

Maybe it says a lot about our coaches who can't and won't accept anything that doesn't conform 100% of the time to predetermined game plans.
Coaches think they can plan everything to the nth degree when this flies in the face of common sense.
It's just another version of having 4 props on the bench and a ridiculous number interchanges that adds nothing to the game but encouraging coaches to be conservative in their approach to games.
If I was Hamphshire I'd look to get out of Cas and start to look for a new club which may entail a different code.

Maybe he just needed resting who knows?

But that he was playing at fullback speaks volumes for me,clearly Powel doesnt see him as a half back,wigan dont seem to see him as a fullback somethings wrong somewhere..it cant all be with the coaching.

Dunno about that. Hampshire wouldn't be one I'd think would be successful at Union. Can he convince a SL coach to take a punt on him? Going to be difficult with limited game-time.

Hampshire as been over hyped by Wigan fans. Only ever done one thing which was that flick pass against Saints.

He is not a full back that is for certain.

Not sure he even is a 6 or 7 at this level either from what I have seen and thats the problem, he aint performing when given the chance

Exactly yet some on here wanted him playing before Sam Tomkins. I've said all along that I simply don't get the hype with this kid.

Think Hampshire wasn't fully fit so rested last night. I'd imagine if roberts isn't back for magic he will be partnering gale . We are in the market for a full back now dorn has announced his retirement.

Is Dorn going back to Oz? He's been over here, like, forever, hasn't he? The way he played last night it looked like he was good for another couple of seasons.

2003 I think, maybe 04 he came over to London same time mark mcLinden and Thomas leuluai came over,

Announced his retirement, I believe.

I think he mentioned going back to live in Oz. Gutted because ability wise he can easily go on. He's had 2 tough injuries last 2 years though, including the horrendous lip injury which has left permanent damage so perhaps he's thinking long term, in which case, who can blame him. 170+ tries...
