bollox. Sam was told before the season began by Noble he would get between 10-15 games. Noble told us in Australia he was expecting Sam to get 10-15 games regardless of Tim Smith. There are other people on here to back me up on that aswell that it came from Nobby's mouth. |

Best Wigan No7 ever

| Quote: jackdog "Well done Sam.
His selection is NOT an indication of a lack of quality in the league. And it WAS only because of Tim Smith's injury that he got his chance. Failure to trust Sam's ability was Noble's biggest single error.
Also well done for still calling the stadium the JJB.... (in club video) ![]()
Well as i have posted above and just been through the teams Sam did not play in 5 games before Smith left and one was his England call up. He did not start in most of them but came off the bench which in the long term was probably the best way. And when his chance came he took it with both hands Well done Sam.

| Quote: Andy Greg "Not sure how you work that one out i am sure he played in most games when Smith was here. I think he came off the bench in most of the when Tommy went to 9 Smith to 7 and Sam to 6 i stand to be corrected but sure thats how it was in most games. When Smith went we had no option but to let Sam start every game.'"
Thank goodness. |

Surprised Morley's in there before Graham to be honest, although Morley has had a good year Graham has pretty much carried the Saints pack by himself.

| Sinfield now a 4 time dream team member 
A good superleague player for sure but he's been outplayed this season by at least one 13(O'Loughlin) and it's a sorry story for superleagues loose forwards over the years(well since Faz left) that he's made so many teams.
Also no Graham is laughable. |

Would not really argue too much with that Morley and Peacock have been superb this year so i can see why Graham missed out, again though the stand out odd selection is of course Sinfield, who has not been a patch on Locky this year.

So you think he would've made dream team if smith hadn't got injured? |

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Had Smith not got injured at HKR, Sam was going to come on after 20 mins or so and play fullback not stand off. |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Sinfield being in and Newton over Wild is shocking IMO.

That isn't what you said previously. You stated that he wouldn't have played half as many games, Sam knew before the season started how many games he was expecting to play and he's got it. He would have had those games regardless of Smith's injury. I'm pretty sure Sam would have been selected 6 aswell in the dream team even if Smith was still here, he's only started 8 games since the Hull KR game, pretty sure the panel would have looked further along than just 8 games don't you? There are also games early in the season where Noble did actually pick Sam before Tim Smith whilst Smith played in the reserves, Smith has also started on the bench whilst Sam started. But don't let facts get in the way of your Noble bashing. |

Maybe I should've said 'game time' then. I still don't think he would've made dream team playing mainly from the bench. Saying that if you can win Man of Steel playing mainly from the bench who knows! |

Eight English players in there. A tiny ray of hope perhaps? |
