Richards is just quality winger, fantasic defensively, great in the air, fair bit of pace.'"
Yeah I don't really get why he came inside so much, perhaps they would be better with him at FB, problem is that NSW's captain Kurt Gidley plays FB. I've not been impressed with Gidley last series or in the first game of this, he must be doing something right because he always gets picked but I don't see it. |

He has also played a fair few games for Castleford too, and done well from the games and highlights that I have seen. |

Really? I didn't think played for us yet. He's obviously played for Cas already. When did he make his debut then? |

As an aside, has there ever been a televised Wigan game in the last two seasons where the commentators haven't mentioned that Joel and Sam are brothers? I'm probably just being narky but they love mentioning it, like 90% of fans didn't know that anyway, and the other 10% couldn't work it out.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

Same here. SOO needs special plays to break the line, he will never offer that. |

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 |

But weren't Saints fans telling all and sundry that Wellens, Gardner, Pryce and Wilkin were world class prior to the 2008 World Cup?
I'd rather believe that Joel has a chance being that he is just 23 years of age. Time will tell.

He will be IMO. Every now and again a player comes along and even as a young player you think this guy is going places. JT as a very young player for a forward who did a very good job deputising for O'Loughlin when he was out injured in 2008. You can laugh all you like but with JT we have a player going places. Some of us have seen it in him for a while now and have been singing his praised long before this season.
This year he has stepped up to a new level.

Him and Lockers are the two best backrowers in the comp right now. Good enough at the moment. We'll see.

I wouldn't bother trying, Dave.
These trolls, who we've barely heard from before but are suddenly very active on our board in the immediate aftermatch of a Wigan defeat, make me hoot with laughter - espcially the ones who come over all reasonable, but in truth are just here to wind us up.
They're not interested in RL debate, and they'll disappear again as soon as Saints come a cropper. Don't waste your breath trying to enlighten them. |
