Il level with you, i started a positive thread speculating on what team shaun might put out and the first reply is a negative one slating the team again do you think that this is acceptable??

We are top of the league with an injury list as long as your arm can stretch, im simply making the point that some people just cant be happy with us still winning with half a team of young kids and players not back to their full fitness.

I also dont think it's acceptable slating our young kids on here, if they where to read some of the comments that some morons put on here what do you think it might do to their confidence?? At the end of the day if they are looking for a positive response from writing slanderous remarks about players on here you must be living on cloud nine.

It's a forum, we can say what we want [within the legal constraints of the law, obviously] If I want to say that Ryan Hampshire is turd and we should swap him for Richie Mathers, i'm allowed to say that. You're allowed to disagree, of course, but, you aren't allowed to abuse me for having that opinion.

Of course that isn't my opinion, but even if it was, i'm allowed to express it freely.

I have yet to see anything on here which even borders on 'Slander', if you see such a post, there is a 'report' option on each post, which will alert the mods to the post.

Ok then lets just let it carry on then free speech slating young lads who are trying to make a name for themselves, it's perfectly normal!

Yeah it is perfectly normal, as stupid as it sounds...not everybody agrees with you! Fancy that.

Nobody is slating any of the young lads? You posted your prediction for the team on monday. People have disagreed with your team selection. Whats the big deal?

am i the only one who thinks we may never see Sam in a Wigan shirt again?

Its the CC sam will be playing big money earner for the club to progress

sam wrote in the MENA that he could have played against bradford but they decided it would be better to give him one more week to come back fully fit.

Hatty said we're struggling to play as a team recently. Yes I do think that's acceptable, it's an opinion, which is what forum's are for. Is it justified? Well let's have a look at our form in the last 5 games
I don't really know who you think has been slating our youngsters. If you mean no one should be able to criticise the performance of the team because there are some youngsters in it, I disagree. We have hit very poor form for a team of our calibre. I think we'll manage to beat Widnes on Monday, but that then leaves us less than two weeks to put things right before the cup semi final, which could easily be against the winner of that Warrington/Huddersfield game.

Point is, not everyone is going to agree with you, and as long as they aren't abusive, that should be acceptable. To be honest though I've seen you post worse than that about some of the young lads, Jack Murphy in particular.

Yes.

He said in the south stand bar on friday after the game that he expects to be back for the Widnes and sounded positive he would be so i think wel see him play.

Tomkins,
Charnley, Goulding, Gelling, Richards,
Green, Smith,
Flower, McIlorum, Crosby,
Hansen, Farrell,
Tuson.
Bench, Mossop, Dudson, Powell, Thornley.

It does seem that Sam will play so Hampshire misses out.
Mossop on the bench after a lay off.
Powell in as Green has not been so good the last two games and Mic Mac will need interchange. Thornley in as he can play centre, wing or 2nd row and is in better form than Hughes.

No Burke?

wrong...theres at least one other

Sam will definitely play on Monday, according to an interview with Wane on the skysports website.
