Whilst we've got the best squad in the league, IMO of course, I agree it's a stupid statement.

Quote: nikos "Danny Orr never looked class playing for us (or anyone else for that matter)
Disagree , when he was at Cas he looked the real deal hence Wigan went in for him. He seemed to struggle at Wigan which is my point , big fish in a little pond at Cas but at Wigan he was simply one of many as he didnt/couldnt take the step up.

I agree icon_eek.gif Thats the sort of line which makes other fans call us arrogant gits.

If you picked a team made up of all best players in the league we would probably have 6/7 players in it at the most imo so that leaves 10 players from other clubs for a matchday team.

Chase, O'Donnell, Both Monaghans, Shenton, Gleeson, Buderus, Briers (I feel dirty), Morley, Wood, Ratchford........ off the top of my head.

A little OT. But anyone else glad we didn't go for Shenton? He was completely anonymous against us on Good Friday. With his only involvement on the day supporting the Wheeler's break. Carmont on the other hand continually ran rings around Michael all night. In fact Joel who has little experience at centre, had a bigger effect on the game playing at centre than Shenton did.

Just to add to your list Pemps. I like Newton at KR and Lynch and Bradford. In fact Newton all though he's probably under contract at KR, would be good replacement for the Hoff were he to leave.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg



Am I the only one who does not get this Ratchford love in?

He has had a couple of decent games, yes but also some very average and very poor ones. Not for me thanks.

Me as well, really does not excite me, would bring a good kicking game but for me not the type of top class half we should be looking to bring in and lacks the dynamism for a wider back.

Nothing more than a squad player for me in a team wanting to be at the top, and I do not think he would be happy with that he is the kind of lad that wants to be playing every week.

I wonder if he was from anywhere other than Wigan if there would be such a strong feeling amongst the fans to sign him up.

With you on that one Rogues, lots of flaws IMO. Don't see a top drawer player developing there at all.

totally agree, I think it is the Pemberton posse, with a romantic view of having one of their own playing for Wigan

I think it's part of a current trend of hyping up decent players just because they are English, he's a decent player of course but don't know if he'd really improve our team.
