[size=50:2fqgwsdo]"The mid-to-late 1980s and early-to-mid-1990s is the most successful period for the club to date, however, even without this glorious trophy laden period, Wigan would still have won more trophies than any other professional British rugby league club due to their successes throughout the club's history."[/size:2fqgwsdo]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_52674.jpg |

Either, but in our current squad he is more effective at 9. Brings something McIllorum doesn't and we generally look more dangerous IMO. That said, I think McIllorum has improved since rotating with Tommy.
Deacs and Finch is working well, and I don't think we should upset the combination if we don't have to.
He is very good at acting half back at the play the ball at standing square and not letting the opposition read which way we are going to go. The Mossop try against Saints was a classic example of this.

Hes good at both but we currently seem to be lacking somewhat at 9 so he is needed there at the moment.
Micky Mc isnt good enough to start at 9 IMO.

I suppose a good thing for you is the amount of guys you have who are able to switch into the halves naturally

There's no denying that we've played our best rugby this season with Tommy at 9. Having said that, I thought he was the best player on the pitch in the Exiles game at 7. In all honesty, I think he's just an outstanding player who has rarely got the credit he deserves. People always seem to have focussed on what he hasn't done rather than on what he has. The guy has only just turned 26! I think that Tommy is just hitting his peak now.
