I think we now have what it takes to become a dominant side. Depth, a well balanced squad, a good mixture of youth and experience, star players, squad men, a good ethos and a great coach with a good backing from the likes of Wane, Radz and Deacon, all Wiganers to boot.

It's a great time to be a Wigan fan...

Hansen's game came on a couple of notches last season imo and he finally fufilled his potential as a top class backrower. I thought he had an outstanding season and played a huge part in our success.

Him making a sooner then expected recovery from a shoulder knock to play in the play offs was a massive boost for the side. The Hansen of pre 2010 i'd agree could have been seen as over-rated and a chance of falling down the pecking order but not the new Hansen imo.

Vievers? He didn't play a single first team game and then signed for Wakefield, I don't see how that's stepping up.

Well it's all down to opinion, and I respect everyones. Personally I think words and phrases like 'top class' and 'outstanding' put Hansen in the overrated bracket.

I put the likes of Ellis Thiday, Burgess, Luke Lewis Mannering in that bracket, and Hansen isn't a patch on them.

And to think that Luke Lewis started out life on the wing!

Very good player indeed.

Like a certain Mr Hanley

But if you were to say Hansen was average he'd be underrated, imo.

is that dvd out yet?..........not on the online store.........but im going into town in a few minutes..........warriors worlds out of my way, but ill detour if its out.

Hansens try at Leeds was awesome.

It was out well before Christmas.

However after saying that, it doesn't seem to be on the online store at the moment, even though there's a picture of it in the "Accessories" section.
