Well you've ignored the fact he's played 12 out of 15 matches this season.
Any how good luck with him, couldn't knock his effort with us.

You can play but still have a niggling injury that holds you back. He might be having to miss training sessions, have pain killing injections, play limited minutes, change his playing style to protect himself, whatever. Granted I'm speculating, but if Mick Potter says he's been struggling with injuries, and he's played 12 games, that might give you a clue as to why he hasn't shone in those games. |

I've seen him over the past few years, in all honesty he's gone backwards. I hope he finds some good form at Wigan because his effort is always there and he comes across as a great clubman.
But I can't help think that he isn't Wigan quality. |

| At last some good news. That photo is scary!
Don't know anything about him but at 25 he's clearly not some has-been and not wet behind the ears either  |

"Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.:27588.gif |

Nobody come up with that as a rumour did they? Class signing. Top quality at a good age

Asotasi is probably taking up at least twice the salary cap. |

Do you think it might be sensible to look at this bloke in a Wigan shirt before we start pontificating about his strengths, weaknesses and suitability? (Same with Andy Powell)
Looking back at the thread about squad numbers for 2013 there are some VERY interesting comments from the experts on here about how certain players were going to perform, even ones like Faz who had been at the club for years. NOT ONE of the experts thought that Faz was any better than a squad player that he wasn't really a second rower and that even Jack Hughes would be a better bet in the SR.
Had to admit I thought it was hilarious considering the ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY that some of these people post on here. They know better than Shaun Wane despite his playing and coaching career set against their own keyboard/armchair career!!!

Come on there is nothing wrong with discussing any new signings potential strengths and weaknesses. The NZW fans are doing exactly the same with Sam. It's what fans do.

Everybody is an armchair coach including you I'd wager. If you disagree with anyone posting "Jack Hughes would be a better bet in the SR (than Faz)" say why [iyou[/i think so don't just slag them off for saying it! And by the way the "they know better than <insert name of coach>" has been viewed as a lame argument for years. |
