| Quote: Cherry_&_White "I don't disagree really, but I suppose the counterpoint would be that a better time to judge is at the end of the season and the state of the squads going into knock out rugby. Wane's first season immediately comes to mind when we were battering teams earlier in the year but picked up injuries and ran out of gas when it mattered.
I don't think we'll see a repeat this year, but I'd be lying if I said wasn't a bit concerned by the lack of chances to rest throughout the season.'"
Exactly, there is a reason the double has only been done 6 times in 28 years.

| Quote: The Yellow Giraffe "Because sometimes I get told stuff and get asked not to make it public. Why would I burn my bridges by blabbing? Not sure I know what you mean by hedging my bets. I’ve said we won’t be signing Drinkwater - I think that’s fairly definitive from me.
Stu M who posts on here knows I get bits here and there and I’ve sent NickyKiss info in the past that wasn’t public. So I’m not some fantasist who makes things up.'"
Ok mate don’t get upset if you would rather keep your information within the inner circle then that’s fine.

Not upset in the slightest. You’re asking me for names and I’m telling why I won’t share them. It’s not difficult.

If he comes to play 6 for them he will be a good signing but if it's to play 1 he's a liability under the bomb

Hull making a big play for him and Broncos keen to retain also.

| If Lam shows interest in a fullback/stand off then jump on would probably be the best advice. Saints are in a strange position though, in that they need signings but probably don’t want to sign lads on 3/4 year deals because of this crop of kids like Robertson and Whitby. It will be interesting to see what they come up with.

| Quote: The Yellow Giraffe "Several wingers and centres and then a forward should Matautia leave, which is looking increasingly likely. I've been given names but I wont be plastering them on here.
The emergence of Robertson, Whitby and Roberts means we are highly unlikely to sign anyone to play in the halves. Those 3 should thrive under our new incoming attack coach.......'"
Not if Lomax continues to get selected. I must admit though that I enjoyed watching Robertson last night, after a shaky start he grew into the game. The lad has got great footwork.

| Anyone see the Reserves game today? Very surprising scoreline. Wigan reserves normally beat us so I was amazed with the score.
Wigan needed to win as well with losing at Huddersfield and drawing with London

Just looked. That is a hammering 10-50

| I've watched the reserves a couple of times this year and have been pretty underwhelmed with the performances, especially when it comes to the desire to defend their line. On paper the Wigan side looked strong today, as it did when they played Huddersfield recently but for whatever reason it's just not happening. I normally see a young Wigan side and see a couple of lads who I'm convinced will make it but with guys like Eckersley and Farrimond in the seniors, I don't see too many at that level currently. I think Douglas has a strong chance and I like Kerr and Ratchford when I see them but there aren't many others who jump out at me.

| At the stages in their careers normally that team may still have a few of Jnr, Hill, Eckersley, Farrimond and Forber in there which I guess would the equate to decent amount of potential O'niel been pretty special as well. I always think Douglas looks very able to step up I think he just needs to believe it himself.

| Strong rumours this morning that Dagnall is playing on Friday. Half an hour later he is named in the squad and given a first team squad number.
Wellens has gone from being risk averse to all of a sudden giving debuts to lads against the better teams. Had they been drip fed into the team against the likes of London, the transition would be easier but hey ho.
