| Quote: SFW "I've seen a fair few Wigan games this season and Deacon makes a massive difference, the way you were moving the ball wide yesterday with him in the team was much more effective than when he hasn't been there, and apparently you were much better at KR last week with him in the team. To knock him for the odd individual mistake whilst completely ignoring the way he makes you tick in attack is poor.'"
What's embarrassing is that SFW can read the Wigan game better than most of our fans. One of the main reasons for our previous dismal form is the lack of shape that missing Deacon brings. Some of our attacking play with this shape is scintillating, but terrible without. Not just that but our lack of shape, our flatness also brings out mistakes and knock-ons.
Re. Finch - anyone with a remote understanding of RL can see that yes e is struggling, but he's getting better every game. Also that he's showing aspects of his game that indicate in the long term he'll be an excellent addition to the squad.

| Quote: Cruncher "Be a bloody expensive taxi, that - three year's worth of contract.
Seriously, people ought to think before they post this sort of thing.
Another one I heard today was "Finch is crap - Lenagan should bin him off."
I had this vision in my mind's eye of IL hiring a hit-man to top him and then dump him in a dustbin. It would certainly be less expensive.'"
Go back a few years and change Finch for Richards.

Barrett was more cold than hot when he was with us.
When he was hot though, he was blistering.

| Deacon makes the the game look easy, the best displays have come when he is on the pitch. As for the replacement for Deacon that is were Finch came in. Deaocn was not expected to play for another season but he offers the team a lot in terms of expereience, he does not get flustered and will make the right decision more often than not

We dont need him hes crap and not good enough you can tell after 2-3 games if a player is good enough for Wigan. Wont amount to anything and never be a great in SL. No chance of Man of Steel.
AHH its 2011 thought people were taling about Pat Richards in his first season.
And you can gurantee that these people who are now calling for Lima and Finch to go always knew Richards would be as good as he is today.

| Some fans really do make me cringe.
After a hand full of games its decided Finch and Lima or not good enough..QUOTES like should have kept feka make me laugh because i would probably cry.
After playing only 5 games for a new team in one of the most important positions in the team its decided finch is not good enough get shut.
Probably the same people who condemned Richards after his first season.

Even Matt king took time to settle. He has turn out to be a good player for Wire.
