Blake Green is also looking pretty mediocre since his return from injury. He may be a Hull KR standard player but I fear is not a Wigan class stand off.

[quote="Headingley Rhino"]Great win yesterday at our place, there is no denying you are probably the best team in SL as you have proved it all year so I think it's justice done that you have got to Old Trafford. I thought wigan was excellent in the second half and showed why you guys are top dogs this year.:

Was thinking tonight on form I'd drop him for Hampshire if Sams back next
Liability tonight and last few weeks every 4th pass he throws goes behind and to ground of the man running on to it

Thornley totally played himself out of contention for Wembley tonight. His confidence looks shot.

Logan Tomkins has always and will always be pretty average. He doesn't have the physical attributes or skill to be anything other then that.

Green has lost the plot. His form is a huge source of concern.

Saying that our 'papering over the cracks' lads will be back for the final and play offs so things could be worse. They certainly will be next year.

Correct. Logan tomkins contributes NOTHING to our team what so ever. Id rather micky play 80 minutes or rotate him and smith at 9. Thornley is lazy and slower than a tax rebate.

Id be rubbing my hands if I was a Hull fan.

I would play Powell in the final before Green.

Green is trying to do everything by himself in attack without lockers and sam in the line. It doesnt help that the last time liam farrell ran a proper line was about 8 weeks ago.

Hampshire on the bench for the final please, Powell and Logan are simply not good enough.

I must have missed something? What exactly did Thornley do wrong? Every time we put our usual play on it went to the forwards? It never really went into the back on his side and I didn't see him miss a tackle. Scapegoat springs to mind. If this upsets a few so be it but the lad did what was asked tonight!

Logan Tomkins is nowhere near good enough and never has been, the only good thing about Sam leaving is that Logan will be going with him.

To me, Thornley seems like one of those players who has always been bigger than everyone and has pace to go with it. Once you hit the first team and find that you are getting put on your ar5e a lot more by blokes of similar size you need something else i.e. footwork or speed off the mark to create space. I find myself really wanting him to do well as he has so much potential but week after week he looks average at best. A season on the wing might do him good.

You are spot on, i watched Green closely and he was terrible.
His passing game was way off the mark, it was either bad timing or wrong options. I thought his kicking game was average and defence at times was weak too.

The Communist Cap - dragging down success and aspiration to the levels of those who cba.:



You have to question our signings (or lack of)

Blake Green
Lauki
Matty Smith


Never anywhere near Wigan standard.

Would never have made the A team 20 years ago.

From an RL supporters perspective that is very very sad.

Green very poor tonight - has been since he came back from injury.
Logan - Isnt good enough to play for Wigan - adds absolutely nothing to the team.
Thornley - I watch him very closely and he isn't as strong as Gelling. Gelling makes a few unforced errors but his game is miles stronger than Thornley.
Powell - I thought he did okay tonight, he looked more dangerous on the ball than when Green had it.
Powell or Hampshire would be on the bench for me at Wembley.

I've written this in the recent past , the current 'team' is the weakest in quality/class terms, that we have had since the very early 1980s.

I would have loved to hear the after match comments of the 'special guests' tonight of our ex players like Billy Boston, Bill Ashurst and especially Andy Gregory, whose language can be a bit colourful at the best of times. icon_lol.gif

I agree and was thinking pretty much the same thing.

His defence is very poor and it wasn't any better when he had some form in the rest of his game before the injury.
