Quote: Father Ted "Maguire said that Finch is seeing the doctor this week and is very close. Deacon looked in a very bad way when he went off.'"

Quote: Legend That Sorts It "it may be a little harsh but does anyone think tomkins went into hididng today after a couple of them bad tackles, cant blame the lad but if hes gonna be top player thats what you have to put up with im afraid'"


He's astonishingly resilient, can't think of many players in the league who have to put up with what he does - it's no shock he's started trying to make sure the opposition are penalised for it, if a bit too... obvious for me in the way he does it.

If the marker is now set for how to shut him down, Wigan will have to consider whether he is worth it on the kick return, he can play a deep role in attack at 6 if that's all we're after due to O'Loughlin. I suppose this will all depend on our other options at FB.

I have a laugh at many of the posters on various clubs message boards saying Sam Tomkins, strangle him , kill him etc.

Having had the privilege of watching Sam come through the academy teams from him being 16 years of age I can tell you that the opposition have been trying to do it for years (and failing) and he has an attitude very similar to Shaun Edwards. He's a tough little b*gg*r and when I was trying to explain to our Saints supporting friends the difference between Sam and Eastmond they wouldn't have it.

They are now beginning to agree (through gritted teeth)

I'm looking forwards to seeing how Finch goes, a couple of years ago when he was on the outer at Parramatta I fancied us making a move for him as a partner to Briers. From his NRL pedigree you would have to put him in the same calibre as Adrian Lam. You never know how these players will translate to SL of course, but I'm surprised more hype hasn't been made of this signing, I bet if Wigan had finished 2nd or 3rd last year this would have been hailed in the press as the 'final piece in the jigsaw'

Sams little tough side is what makes him such a great player, and long may it continue.

Quote: wiganrl "Correct me if i'm wrong but Deacon has gone off twice in 5 games yet still played the week after sorry but i'm failing to see a liability anywhere.'"


Some people on here are hopeless at judging players.

Liability? We rely on Deacon more then ever atm.....

Nope I don't think he went into hiding at all.

Nope.

They were pretty good with their kick-chases, I thought - most times he had a solid wall ahead of him, yet still made good yards.

How can we miss someone who hasn't even played yet? Would I like him to play and have the luxury of his kicking game... yes!
